Applicants invited to interview will be required to provide an official transcript from each school attended.
Test Scores
The GMAT or GRE is required of all applicants and must be taken before submitting your application. Once your online application is submitted, we will not allow replacement of your test scores. Test scores are only valid for five years; therefore, only tests taken after January 1, 2007 will be considered. It’s important to be aware that as of August 1, 2011, the GRE general test is changing. Here is information from the GRE about the revised test changes:
M.Fin. applicants whose first language is not English must submit IELTS (preferred) or TOEFL scores. The IELTS/TOEFL requirement may be waived for those who have earned or by the time of enrollment in the M.Fin. Program will have earned a bachelor's degree from a school where English is the primary language of instruction. A 2-year graduate degree from an English speaking school is not sufficient to waive the IELTS/TOEFL requirement.
M.Fin. GMAT School Code: X5X-QS-69
M.Fin. GRE School Code: 3845
TOEFL institution code: 3845
