<p>The primary purpose of the MSF program is to prepare students for careers in finance, not to pass the CFA exam. However, our students have achieved a high success rate on the exam in the past several years.</p>

<p>While filling out your application, you should just apply to the MSF program as a whole.&nbsp;</p> <p>Admitted applicants will be able to confirm their intention to pursue the Quantitative Finance (STEM-designated) Track when they submit their enrollment forms.&nbsp;<b>Important Note:</b>&nbsp;If the STEM track is not selected upon enrollment, students will not be able to switch to it at a later time.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, in order to take classes in any graduate management program, you must formally apply and be accepted into the program.</p>

<p>Work experience is not required for the MSA program. Students can gain admission directly from their undergraduate studies.</p>

<p>The MSF program is open to both those with work experience and those without. For international students, however, we highly recommend that students have some work experience, particularly if they are seeking post-MSF employment in the United States due to the increasingly competitive US employment market. The MSF Program is designed to meet the diverse needs of finance professionals, career changers, and recent undergraduates.

<p>There are no minimum GMAT/GRE or GPA requirements. However, we recommend that you review our class profiles to see how your scores and grades compare to those of our current students:</p> <ul> <li><a></a><a href="/content/bc-web/schools/carroll-school/graduate/mba/full-time-mba.html">Full-Time MBA</a></li> <li><a></a><a href="/content/bc-web/schools/carroll-school/graduate/mba/part-time-mba.html">Part-Time MBA</a></li> <li><a></a><a href="/content/bc-web/schools/carroll-school/graduate/ms-programs/ms-in-accounting.html">MSA</a></li> <li><a></a><a href="/content/bc-web/schools/carroll-school/graduate/ms-programs/ms-in-finance.html">MSF</a></li> </ul>

<p>No, international students do not need to submit visa-related materials at the time of application. However, once you confirm your enrollment, Boston College鈥檚&nbsp;<a href="/content/bc-web/sites/global-engagement/sites/office-of-international-students-and-scholars.html" target="_blank">Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS)</a>&nbsp;will work with you to ensure that your materials are prepared in a timely fashion to complete your visa application and I-20 appointment.</p>

<p>Our practice is to evaluate every admitted part-time MBA student for a merit based scholarship. In addition to scholarships, our team evaluates every admitted part-time MBA candidate for advanced standing credit鈥攁 potential savings of time and tuition expense. Eligible candidates may qualify for a waiver of up to five MBA courses (for a maximum of 15 credits), based upon prior coursework and/or professional certifications (e.g. CPA, CFA). This translates to potential tuition savings of up to $31,830 (based on 2023-2024 tuition rates).</p> <p>Part-time MBA students may also apply for federally-funded financial aid. <a href="/bc-web/offices/student-services/financial-aid/graduate/applying-for-aid.html" target="_blank">Learn more by visiting the Office of Student Services website</a>.</p> <p><a href="/content/bc-web/schools/carroll-school/audience-pages/current-graduate-students/course-waiver-policy.html" target="_blank"><span class="btn btn-default btn-maroon">Course Waiver Policy</span></a></p>

<p>Incoming students must declare their intent to pursue the STEM-designated track when they fill out their enrollment form and pay their enrollment deposit. </p> <p><b>Important Note:&nbsp;</b>If the STEM track is not selected upon enrollment, students will not be able to switch to it at a later time. Again, although students may opt out later, they will not be able to opt into the track after submitting their enrollment form and deposit.</p>

<p>Some students may be eligible to waive courses based upon prior coursework and/or professional certifications.
