MS in Computer Science Student at University of Oxford
MIT MFin attracts students with strong academic records and early professional exposure.
• Median GPA: 3.9 on a 4.0 scale
• GRE (middle 80%): Quant 165–170, Verbal 156–167; Median Quant is a perfect 170
• Average work experience: 13 months, with backgrounds in finance, consulting, data science, and engineering
• International representation: 93% of the class, spanning 29 countries
Most students are in their early to mid-20s, combining strong technical skills with global perspectives. The high GRE Quant range signals the program’s heavy emphasis on mathematics and analytical ability. While prior finance experience isn’t mandatory, many bring internships or short stints in relevant fields, which helps in landing competitive roles after graduation. The mix of fresh graduates and those with limited but impactful work experience creates a balanced environment for networking and learning.
