半年内准备期从无T无G最终申请到约翰霍普金斯的金融硕士-新东方前途出国

与学生妈妈签订留学合同后，跟学生约了7月7日的会面，具体沟通留学申请事宜，见面后印象很深刻高高大大的男孩子，很阳光，很温暖。沟通后建议学生申请金融硕士，考GMAT,由于学生的成绩单里涉及到金工的课程较少，最后学生也是比较认可，接下来第一关于均分，学生在美国学期的成绩比国内两年高，建议学生后面的考试已经要高度重视，取得更好的成绩这样就可以平衡均分，学生最后不负所望，达到均分3.6用来申请；第二关于语言成绩，520的GMAT成绩确实有点低，想申请美国前三十的院校冲前十的院校，至少要有650+的成绩，随后给学生规划了9月10月和11月的考位，最后再11月末的考试重学生考到了680的成绩，非常值得高兴，托福报考了9月10月和11月的三次考试 成绩从85分到88分到92分 最后冲刺到100分，终于达到了一个申请的标准线，此时的我们真的非常的兴奋，立刻马上针对之前沟通的院校最终确定了12所院校的定校，虽然我们没有赶上第一批的商科申请，但是我们最后赢得了分数，也赢得了最后的胜利。最终我们取得了凯斯西储，马里兰帕克，东北大学，南卫理公会等的金融硕士录取，在最后我们取得了约翰霍普金斯的录取，看到录取信的那一刻，我们整个团队高兴的要起飞，因为我们没有辜负学生家长的信任，虽然背景项目不多，但是我们在半年内帮助辅助学生提升了标化，在有限的事件内争取做到了我们该做的事情，。真的感谢学生家长的大力配合，感谢后期老师的无私奉献，感谢我们整个团队给予的支持！我爱你们！！

心得建议

    所有准备美国硕士申请的学生，一定要合理安排好所有考试，申请，找项目找学校找老师及文书的时间，如果考虑权衡所有事情及准备时间是很赶的话，建议早些找机构帮助办理，比如W同学分数很好，只是没有充足的时间，如果时间够的话，申请的结果一定比现在还要好的。建议刚开始有留学想法的学生，或者准备语言考试中的学生，抓紧时间尽早咨询专业的老师，尽早规划，在有限的时间内做最有价值的事情。新东方前途出国的顾问老师们，责任心强，工作经验丰富，非常值得各位家长和同学信任。真心希望用我们的经验来助更多的学生圆梦。

Curriculum

At Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, we equip our students with the quantitative and leadership skills to analyze data, learn from it, and impact the long-term sustainability of businesses around the world. Our program builds the entrepreneurial capacity of students to comprehend both local investment environments and global financial markets.

The Master of Science in Finance with a STEM-designated concentration in Financial Econometrics prepares you to lead and innovate. Because a career in finance requires responsibility as much as the ability to discover opportunity, our curriculum goes beyond simply learning how money and markets interact and equips graduates with a firm understanding of how to harness econometrics for business solutions.

Areas of study include capital markets, financial institutions, corporate finance, and corporate governance.

Students in the Master of Science in Finance program learn from world-class faculty including Dr. Federico Bandi, co-editor of the Journal of Financial Econometrics, which publishes leading research on the subject of finance and econometrics.

Core coursework focuses on fundamentals of valuation and analysis rooted in a practical understanding of economic and institutional forces with other topics including asset valuation of individual stocks, bonds, derivatives, currencies and other financial instruments with an emphasis on analyzing the prices of financial assets traded at competitive, liquid financial markets. Students have the option to complete their degree at the Baltimore Harbor East or Washington, D.C. campus locations.

Applicants to the MS Finance program have the option to select Baltimore or Washington, DC as their preferred campus. We try our best to admit candidates to their preferred campus, but do not guarantee it. Space in Washington, DC is limited and often fills following round two.

Note for TOEFL test takers: Admissions is piloting the use of TOEFL’s MyBest scores option for fall 2020 applicants. This means we will use superscored test results for TOEFL scores sent after August 1, 2019.

Letter of recommendation

Who should write your letter of recommendation? We suggest someone who knows you personally and who can speak directly about your strengths and experience.

Be sure that you have been in their class, have reported to them directly, and/or you have shared your interest in graduate school with them.

Applicants to all full-time programs are required to take the GMAT or the GRE, with no waivers available.

Application fee

A $100 nonrefundable application fee is due when you submit your online application.

Non-U.S. applicants:

Since 1876 when Johns Hopkins was established as the first American research university, the university’s academic distinction has attracted students from across the globe. The university’s faculty is as diverse in nationality as are our students and includes hundreds of scholars from around the world.

Our students live, work, and lead in a global marketplace that transcends boundaries, cultures, and nationalities. The participation of students of diverse nationalities is therefore an essential element of our programs. The diverse perspectives of international students at Carey Business School create a shared understanding of the varied dimensions of our global economy.

Important Information for non-U.S. applicants

We encourage you to be aware of the following before starting an application.

· In order to receive an I-20 Certificate of Eligibility for F-1 status from Johns Hopkins University, you must be fully admitted to a degree program well in advance of the start of the semester (read about our deadlines). We encourage you to apply in round one or two to allow plenty of time for visa processing.

· Full-time status/full course of study is defined at Carey Business School as enrolled in at least nine credits each fall semester and at least nine credits each spring semester.

· No federal financial aid is available for international students. International students are considered for merit scholarships with their admissions application. No separate application is needed. Please refer to the financial aid website for information about our endowed scholarships and scholarships available from private organizations.

· As an international student, you are charged the same tuition rates as a U.S. student. Costs for all academic programs can be found under tuition and fees.

· As an F-1 student, you will be required to show proof that you can afford all tuition and living expenses for one academic year to receive an I-20. See our Cost of Attendance page for the current estimated cost of living.

· For privacy and security reasons, do not send bank statements or other financial documentation with your application. You will be notified by the Office of International Services when this information is required.

· We do not provide on-campus housing for any of our students. Learn more about housing resources.

Additional requirements for non-U.S. applicants

In addition to submitting the materials required for all applicants, international applicants must:

Submit a Test of English as a Foreign Language or International English Language Testing System score. You may be exempt, if you meet one of the following criteria:

· You completed an undergraduate or graduate degree at an accredited college or university in the U.S. or another country on this list.

· You completed an undergraduate or graduate degree at an accredited college or university where English was the ONLY language of instruction as indicated on the university’s website, transcript, and/or mark sheets.

Indicate in the “Supporting Materials” section of the application if you meet one of the above qualifications for exemption.

The preferred minimum TOEFL score is 100 on the Internet-based test. The preferred minimum IELTS score is 7.0. Given the small number of students who take the TOEFL revised Paper-delivered Test, Carey Business School does not publish a preferred minimum score for this version. TOEFL and IELTS scores are valid for two years. The TOEFL code for Carey Business School is 0834, IELTS does not require a code.

Note for TOEFL test takers: Admissions is piloting the use of TOEFL’s MyBest scores option for fall 2020 applicants. This means we will use superscored test results for TOEFL scores sent after August 1, 2019.

Individual programs may require additional evidence to demonstrate English language proficiency.

Submit an official course-by-course evaluation for all degrees earned or expected from outside the U.S. The course-by-course evaluation must be provided by an authorized credential evaluation agency and must reflect that the applicant has the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree. See the Credential Evaluation Agencies section for a list of authorized agencies.

Special note for applicants with three-year undergraduate degrees from non-U.S. colleges and universities: In some situations, three-year degrees can be considered equivalent to a four-year U.S. bachelor's degree. In these cases, applicants can apply to Carey Business School. Before you begin your application and the credential evaluation process, please contact the Admissions Officer for your country for further guidance. Typically, World Education Services is the only credential evaluation agency that will consider three year degrees as being equivalent to a U.S. bachelor’s degree. Applicants can preview how their degree will be evaluated by using a free tool at the World Education Services website: http://www.wes.org/evaluations/preliminary.asp

If coursework was earned outside of the U.S. but the degree was earned in the U.S., only transcripts from all schools are required and must be in English.

Credential evaluation agencies

International Credential Evaluation Requirement

Applicants who hold, or who are currently pursuing, degrees from non-U.S. institutions must have their academic records evaluated by a NACES member agency before they can be considered for admission to a degree/certificate program. The credential evaluation must reflect the applicant has the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree.

Applicants who are currently pursuing a degree from a school outside of the U.S. and will not graduate by the application deadline are required to submit a course-by-course evaluation of completed course work. Students who enroll are required to submit an updated evaluation showing the degree has been conferred.

Why is credential evaluation important?

Credential evaluation is used to assess a student's coursework against the U.S. grading system and to evaluate courses for possible transfer credit. Applicants should make arrangements with a NACES member agency, for an evaluation of the degree, an assessment of the overall grade point average, and a course-by-course evaluation. These evaluations must meet the equivalency of a U.S. degree.

Authorized Agencies

Because fees and documents required for evaluations may vary by agency, applicants are encouraged to contact the agencies directly for additional information. We authorize evaluations from any NACES member agency. Our applicants most commonly choose one of the following three:

World Education Services, Inc.
Web site: http://wes.org

Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc.
Web site: https://www.ece.org/

International Education Research Foundation
Web site: http://www.ierf.org/JohnsHopkins-CareyBusinessSchool/
