The Georgia State University Masters in Finance team is hitting the road to meet with perspective students. Their travel schedule is pretty amazing as they will be meeting students in a number of cities around the world. In my experience it is always great to meet with people from the admissions staff in person because it allows you to really connect with the people who will be ultimately making the decision whether to admit you or not.

Some miscellaneous things to add. I’ve added Georgia State to my programs cost page. Tuition comes in very reasonable at $37,500 (same for domestics as well as internationals).This pays for tuition, books (the program orders these for the students), class materials, parking (normally $12/day), graduation fees, and meals with snack bar (students are feed during the evenings they’re in class). No out of state tuition cost difference either.
I am working on getting a student review which will be a nice addition. This should be coming soon. I was in Atlanta for a brief stay for a layover and stayed downtown and got to see where the GSU campus is located. Very convenient and centrally located. I could see the illuminated Georgia State logo from my hotel room. Atlanta is booming in many ways and the cost of living is pretty great. One of my favorite cities by far.
