There is a lot of confusion on how admissions is done at quant finance masters programs in the US. Every program will do it differently however today I got the opportunity to learn about the admissions process from one of the top programs (Carnegie Mellon University). Emily Wertz is the director of Admissions and Recruiting at CMU's Masters of Science in Computational Finance program and has worked there for over eight years. We cover:
1) Academic Readiness
2) Career Readiness
3) Interpersonal Skills
Emily provides tips and some insight into how the applications are reviewed.
