Sport Management Undergrad Looking at MSF Programs Questions
I recently graduated with a Sport Management Degree from UMass Amherst and have been looking to apply to MSF programs fall 2015.
UMass has a top 40 undergrad business school and the Sport Management program is considered by many as a top 3 program in the world. The program is in the business school so I took your standard intro classes in finance, accounting, and management classes in addition to a sport finance class in which I excelled at. Graduated magna cum laude with a 3.8
My internships weren't in finance/accounting but were with large, prestigious, worldwide sports companies.
Upon graduation in December until a month ago I worked as a basic accountant/finance job with a travel company.
Was just trying to get a feel if this type of background (disregarding gmat scores) would be sufficient in applying/getting into tier 2/3 schools.
Looking at Full Time programs
Thanks in advance
I don't get it. Why can't you apply to tier 1 schools.
I guess would it be worth applying to tier 1 schools
You have a 3.8, crush the GMAT and pray for MIT
I was under the impression that since I graduated in Sport Management and not economics, math, finance, or acounting I would be at a disadvantage when applying to top schools. Any truth to that?
If you do well on the GMAT and have a good reason to pursue the degree there is no reason not to apply to top schools. You have a good GPA and work experience, the major isn't going to hurt you if you can explain yourself in your essays.
