Our Online Master of Science in Finance program is built on practical coursework that emphasizes technical finance skills and provides a rigorous level of practice-driven insights. This is why the Online Admissions Team at the Raymond A. Mason School of Business seeks ambitious applicants with demonstrated success in their professional careers and who possess the motivation to create value in ethical ways.
While successful candidates may come from any professional field, all applicants must have:
Priority Deadline: June 11, 2021
Final Deadline: July 30, 2021
Term Start Date: August 30, 2021
Feel free to contact an Admissions Advisor if you have any questions about whether your work experience meets this requirement.
We are committed to holistically evaluating applicants and considering all aspects of their professional and academic backgrounds. We value data, but we know that you are more than a test score. For online students, demonstrated success in professional careers is a key indicator of their ability to succeed in an online program.
For this reason, we do not require GMAT or GRE scores for admission to the Online Master’s in Finance program. Applicants may, however, submit scores for consideration if they believe that doing so will be beneficial to their application.

Schedule a Personal Admission Interview
Qualified applicants who have submitted and completed their application will be invited to schedule a personal admission interview. Interviews can be conducted on campus, via Skype video conference or by telephone.
