Hi all,

I have a quick question: does anyone know if completing prerequisite classes for an MFE program after the application due date but before the start date of the program starts is something that is acceptable?

I have been taking prerequisite classes this year as my undergraduate major was unrelated to math/stats/compsci, but I won't be able to complete the prerequisites before the application due dates for a fall 2024 start. Specifically, I will be taking a probability course this spring (which is required by some programs), so I am wondering if I will be disqualified for not having completed that course before I applied.

Thanks for your time!
