What does it take to be admitted to Olin's MS/Finance program?
We review each applicant on a number of factors, looking for individuals with strong academic, professional and extracurricular activities. We base our selections on your past performance, quantitative skills and communication skills. To ensure diversity in each entering class, we admit students with various backgrounds, experiences, talents and interests.

You must have completed an undergraduate degree from an accredited institution, comparable to Washington University's four-year bachelor's degree, at the time of enrollment in the MS/Finance program. Washington University undergraduate students wishing to enroll in the MS/Finance program on a four-semester basis must have completed at least 90 total hours of course credit prior to beginning the MS/Finance curriculum.

Although professional work experience is not a requirement for admission, most successful applicants have had significant internship and/or work experience prior to acceptance into the MS/Finance program.

Calculus I, II and III

Note: While you may apply for admission to the MS/Finance program while you are in the process of completing some of these prerequisite courses, you must complete all prerequisites prior to enrolling at Washington University.

Recommended – While not necessarily required, we encourage that students have successfully completed course work in subjects such as linear algebra, differential equations, computer programming and multivariate calculus.
