MFE Programs for recent graduates

[eternal_man]

Would anyone be kind enough to tell me which programs are more likely to admit a recent graduate with little to no work experience.

 

[Andy Nguyen]

Most of them. Depends on your strength, some programs will more likely to admit you than others.

Thanks for the reply Andy.

I recently heard about this field and after doing a lot of research, am excited at the prospect of working in it. Some programs like Columbia, CMU and NYU mention in their profiles that most candidates do not possess much work experience. However UC- Berkely, Baruch, etc... seem to expect more in this regard.

As you said, some are more likely to accept such people. Which ones do you think these are?

A certain number of our students come without prior full-time work experience, but with relevant internship experience.
