Baruch MFE vs other MSF Programs

[despitetheodds]

(Keep in mind this is a student who's not in college yet, so some things I may not know)

I was wondering as to why Baruch has had such a high employment and salary outcome average out of graduation?
Is it due to the prestige of the college, the average capability/determination of a student who was able to be accepted as an MSF under Baruch, or the skills they give you in the college (And as a side note, what specific skills are valued in Quant)?
I'm asking this since I've started to wonder if the excellent student outcomes are more so due to the students capabilities (hence why they got accepted to the program) vs the college itself.

I think it's a combination of both:
Student Capability: The program attracts highly capable and motivated individuals who are likely to succeed due to their skills and determination.
College Contribution: Baruch provides a nurturing environment with quality education, resources, and opportunities that enhance student learning and career prospects.
The excellent outcomes are synergistic—the college's offerings amplify the inherent abilities of the students.In summary, Baruch's high employment and salary outcomes result from a blend of admitting talented students and providing them with exceptional education and resources. Both the students' capabilities and the college's support play integral roles in this success.

How good is a lower ranked mfe program (like rutgers for ex) in terms of getting a good gob right after graduation?

If you look at the ranking, you will see the employment rate at graduation of each program. Most programs have a non-zero rate so some students at those programs are able to secure full-time employment at graduation. I would suspect those are usually from return offers obtained during summer internships.
