The Boston College Master in Finance is a very popular program and I receive a lot of question regarding the program. The school recently updated their placement information on their website and I wanted to bring it to everyone’s attention.
Boston College is a part time, at night master in finance program so many people have jobs while attending the program. Not sure if these stats exclude those individuals. With the addition of a full time, during the day Quantitative Masters in Finance program you should see these stats change some.
