As a Baruch alumni, I strongly discourage it. Baruch's masters programs are catered to people that just want a masters for resume purposes. Recruiting is awful, and the education isn't that great either.
You have a high GMAT, and would recommend you apply to some of Columbia's programs instead.
Everyone is networking heavily in NYC. People from NYU, Columbia, top schools in states close to NYC and farther out are definitely sending emails/calls and trying to land the same jobs you are.
Baruch alumni do not help each other out. The only time a Baruch alum helped me was when we were on the same level so to speak, worked at the same firm and I was going through the interview process at her firm. Outside of that, no one cares.
I don't know how many years of experience you have, but maybe you should consider an MBA? Increase your gmat to 730ish and you should be in a good spot for a top tier program.
I’m gonna level with you.
People have been very polite in telling you this program is a bit shit and won’t get you where you want.
You probably should look to top MSF/MBA programs in US and Europe to have a decent shot. This random Baruch masters plan is pretty bad.
It's not easy to break into BO or MO. Baruch likes to use any statistic it can to market itself. The kids that break into MO from Baruch are really smart, have very high gpas, and had they gone to a better school they would probably be in a front office role.
Baruch's out of state tuition cost for its masters, plus living in NYC for 1-2 years wont be as affordable as you think. I like the advice someone else gave here, which was to attend a good European masters program or just work on breaking into one of Columbia's programs.
