<p>I am an international student hailing from INDIA… </p>
<p>I wish to get into the Mfin program offered at princeton to further my career in finance… I have also cleared the first level of CFA. </p>
<p>A few questions that have been bothering me. </p>
<li><p>We dont have a GPA system, atleast not in the university I studied from, so how does change my application process?? I have my transcripts ready but no GPA on it.</p></li>
<li><p>I have 15years education ie 10+2+3 and have currently applied for a masters program in the same university to fulfill the 16year education prerequisite. Is there any chance I may get selected on the basis of just 15 years education.</p></li>
<li><p>As far as EC’s are concerned I dont have anything special except the odd badminton certificate for participation at the state level. I have a few certificates from debate competitions. ← How badly am i screwed?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>4.I do have some amount of community service under my belt but nothing official. ← how does that hamper my chances or how could I better it? </p>
<li><p>I have given my GMAT/GRE and scored 756/1540 in them. Is that good?? </p></li>
<li><p>I have got recommendation letters from 2 teachers and the principal [Accounts, eco] and another additional recommendation letter from a family friend who completed his phd econ at J.hopkins… Is that sufficient?? </p></li>
<li><p>What should I concentrate on while writing my SoP?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Lastly what are my chances of making it to princeton??</p>
<p>Also what other good colleges offer Master in Finance. </p>
<p>PS: I formed a small time IT firm with a few of my friends, its been 3 years since. Recently got it incorporated [8 months] also left it for personal reasons…</p>
