What's the catch with MIT MFin?

[Useless]

Hi. I am from a third world country, and my undergrad university is a not-ranked low quality university. But recent 3 years I'm surprised with its placement to MIT 's MFin program with fellowships. Those recent placements are only girls with 3.9 GPA, big-4 internship, F3/CFA-L1 and surprisingly without any GMAT/GRE. I asked them about it, they say almost all of their classmates have 700+ GMAT and 335+ GRE. Moreover, most of them are offered with fellowship.

What are the reasons for such admission policy? Is it heavily related to DEI?

And it is a thing solely related to MIT, other US BA/MBA/Finance programs almost never offer any stipends/fellowship to the applicants from my undergrad school directly with admission letter

There are many possible reasons.

1. MIT took one such profile, she did well, and they realized they can easily place similar candidates and so they take a steady stream.
1a. No men are applying.
1b. Men are applying, they are all less qualified.
1c. Affirmative action via MIT.

2. There is some backdoor connection, unknown to you, who funnels these students to MIT. They all happen to do well.
2a. The connection is better connected with women than men.
2b. The men the connection considers are all less qualified than the women.
2c. The connection is imposing affirmative action by only pushing female candidates.

3. Tiny sample size and it's a fluke.


How many women have y'all placed into MIT's MFIN? Do you know if males have been applying? Do you know if the women were all a part of one club, or mentorship group? Do they all attend the same Church, Mosque? What is the name of the university?
