J.D. applying to Master of Finance Programs..

Good Evening,

I am a law school graduate (I graduated in 2015, although I have not yet taken the bar), who is applying to GSU's (Georgia State University) Master of Finance Program for the fall of 2018. I want to go into the financial planning/the financial advisor route. How is GSU's program? What's the best way to go about applying for jobs? Should I mention that I have my JD (even though I havent taken the bar) on my applicaiton and interviews? Any feedback is appreciated.
