I just received the Villanova University MSF 2022 Placement report and I am incredibly impressed. This is always something perspective students are interested in the most and it is great to see these stats updated. Very impressed with the results as well. I will include a link to the full report as well. Enjoy!
2022 Placement Results
- Average Base Salary – $85,876
- Average Signing Bonus – $8,692
- Salary Range – $69,000 – $110,000
Really good salary numbers in my opinion. Also, keep in mind, students go into all areas of finance. If you were to pursue and ultimately land an investment banking job those salaries are generally higher and standardized.
Here is the list of firms that hired Villanova MSF students:
| Altus Group | Grant Thronton |
| Becton Dickinson | JPMorgan |
| BNP Paribas | JPMC |
| Citibank | Lincoln International |
| Cofactor | Morgan Stanley |
| Deloitte | PWC |
| Duff and Phelps | Qualifi LLC |
| Edgemont Partners | RSM |
| Goldman Sachs | Stout |
Additionally, over 95% of students accepted job offers within 6 months. This is a great statistic and the standard that schools focus on. Job titles were a mixture of investment banking, corporate finance and other financial industry roles.
2022 Class Profile
Class profiles are incredibly helpful for anyone considering a program as it gives you an idea of the type of students that are accepted. Keep in mind these are directionally helpful, but do not let them discourage you from applying. Schools admit students for a variety of reasons and you should inquire with admissions to see if it makes sense to send in an application.
- Class Size – 27 Students
- Average GPA – 3.43
- Average GMAT – 611
- Age Range – 22 – 31
- International – 11%
- Average Full Time Work Experience – 6 months
Application Deadlines
Last bit of information I will leave you all with is the upcoming application schedule for the 2024-2025 year. Plenty of time for anyone interested to meet the first round deadline.
Round 1: 11/15
Round 2: 1/15
Round 3: 3/15
Round 4: 6/15
I generally encourage people to apply as early as possible. I think it gives you the best chance, but also plenty of time to improve if there is anything deficient.
