Thank you very much for replying. I received an email from one lady, who informed the turn-down decision an hour ago. I am wondering, what could I do to take Pre-MFE seminars?

The information on the website of Baruch College says that the registration of "Advanced Calculus with Financial Engineering Applications" and "Probability Theory for Financial Applications" will open on November 1, 2014. So if I want to apply for the whole three seminars in the Spring of 2015, should I apply for them separately or I can submit my application together after October 15, 2014?

There are no current plans to offer any of the Pre-MFE seminars online.
The Baruch MFE C++ Programming for Financial Engineering Certificate, also offered as part of the Pre-MFE Program is fully online, and does not have an on-site version.
