what is the minimum gpa i need to get accepted in....?

<p>hi dudes</p>

<p>its jason </p>

<p>i wonder..what is the minimum gpa i need to get accepted in university of pennsylvania
college of wharton (graduate...to get Master degree in finance)</p>

<p>what is the required gpa..in scale of 100% or 4</p>

<p>also what else i need (TOEFL...SAT...GMAT...etc)</p>

<p>best wishes</p>

<p>4.0 unless your a urm/legacy</p>

<p>Most likely, your GPA will be assessed relative to your class rank & school profile.</p>

<p>uha</p>

<p>thanx guys</p>

<p>wut about the GMAT TOEFL SAT ?</p>

<p>fst: this is the collegiate forum. There are MBA forums. You’ll get better info there. And you don’t have to be a 4.0 to be admitted (even though Wharton is tremendously selective)</p>

<p>Thread moved to correct forum.</p>

<p>t26e4 & tokenadult… thanx guys for your help</p>

<p>SAT is only for undergrad.</p>

<p>I dunno if the GMAT will be used if you want a Degree in Finance (Is it still a MBA program? If so, GMAT will be used). TOEFL - if English isn’t your native tongue (or if your undergrad instruction wasn’t in English)</p>

<p>hi guys
check this link…i think its MBA degree</p>

<p>[Find</a> a Program - The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania](<a href=“http://www.wharton.upenn.edu/academics/find_a_program/]Find”>http://www.wharton.upenn.edu/academics/find_a_program/)</p>

<p>i search in the site to find the requirements …but i found nothing
what is the diffrent between MBA degree in finance and master in finance?</p>

<p>The Master in Finance is mostly “advanced” Finance classes and is meant for people with a Finance/Business undergrad degree and most Master in Finance programs do not require experience prior to enrollment, not like most MBA programs. The MBA with a concentration in Finance has a variety of classes (Marketing, Strategic Leadership, Accounting, etc) and some electives in Finance. The MBA is not necessarily meant for a person with a business degree and attracts people from a range of backgrounds.</p>

<p>uha…thank you very much luisg99</p>

<p>is there any recommended school to get Master degree in finance?</p>

<p>Haas or Warrington etc …</p>

<p>Never heard of Warrington (Do you mean Wharton?)…but Haas is pretty good. So are Stern, Wharton and even Sloan (if they offer the M Fin degree). I think Princeton has a similar program, look into that as well</p>

<p>hi politicsfreak
i mean University of Florida (Warrington)
also they have MBA program>>and im looking for Master</p>

<p>Check this out, MS in Finance programs in the US.</p>

<p>hey luiseg99…thank you very much for that link</p>

<p>iam thinking now about 3 schools</p>

<p>University of Florida (Warrington)
they have Master of Science in Finance (MSF)
[MS</a> Finance - Finance, Insurance & Real Estate - Warrington College of Business Administration](<a href=“http://www.cba.ufl.edu/fire/programs/msf/]MS”>http://www.cba.ufl.edu/fire/programs/msf/)</p>

<p>Princeton University>>>Master in Finance
[Master</a> in Finance - Bendheim Center for Finance - Princeton University](<a href=“http://www.princeton.edu/bcf/graduate/index.xml]Master”>http://www.princeton.edu/bcf/graduate/index.xml)</p>

<p>Indiana university
[Online</a> Master of Science in Finance](<a href=“Online MBA Program | Kelley Direct MBA | Indiana Kelley”>Online MBA Program | Kelley Direct MBA | Indiana Kelley)</p>

<p>which one is the best>>and what is the diffrent between master in finance and Master of Science in Finance (MSF)???</p>

<p>luisg99…do the universities above in my replay need work experience?</p>

<p>I think work experience would help but it is not necessary for admission. Just look at the average age at most of these programs.</p>

<p>Fst, I dunno much about M Fin programs but I’d say Princeton (owing to its brand name). I personally have my reservations against Online programs and U Florida in general has a good for a State U (I think)</p>

<p>Yeah, Princeton and George Washington are top schools overall but I don’t know much about their Finance programs. Indiana is a top 20 business program so their Online program should be good.</p>

<p>uha thanx guys…so politicsfreak princeton is good or bad…i didnt get wut you mean honestly.</p>
