MIT MFin MIT MFin Admission Discussion

For those rejected (like me :( ), would you consider applying again? For what other grad school did you apply?

Nah. I'm not going to be sitting around waiting for another year to apply again. Already got into a couple of safeties. Still waiting to hear back from Duke, London Business School and London School of Economics. MIT is a fantastic school, but there are a lot of great options out there.

What other schools have you gotten into so far? (if you don't mind sharing)

I'm in the same boat in regards to not reapplying. Waiting another year just to potentially get rejected again is pointless, especially considering you could be done (or close to) with a graduate degree from another university.
 
I recently checked my result - I can see MIT MFin offer letter on logging in. However, there is no email sent to me regarding status update. Anyone else faced this issue?
Also, has anyone got the fellowship and tell me how to check for that?
Thanks in advance!

I got into Boston College's MSF program and the Cass MSc Corporate Finance program. My ultimate dream job is to work as a research associate at a traditional asset manager like PIMCO and Wellington. If I get rejected by the other three programs, I'll probably go to BC because Boston has a ton of AM firms.
 
If anyone from the WL is accepted, let us know!
I saw that last year some people got accepted from it roughly a week after the official letter.
