大概是11月申的Lehigh，昨天刷到的AD，真是过了好久好久...JHU的情况是已经交了定金找好了室友，都要开始办I20了…大家看我的签名就懂了…
现在就在JHU和Lehigh中选了，希望各位CDer提供宝贵意见！！！
我的计划是希望在美国实习或工作个一两年再回国，下面是我了解到的两个学校的信息，感觉对Lehigh了解还不是很多，希望知道详情的xdjm能share一下啊~
JHU MSF:
录取人数：今年关于录取人数被喷得不行…但是我在群里发现所有专业，去的不去的，录了没录的加起来也就210个左右，当然MSF占绝大多数，我也知道肯定会有一些录了但是没加群的筒子，但是距离450还是有很大的距离的…
项目质量：看论坛上很多人都说JHU MSF很水，但是我看课程设置感觉挺好的啊，也有一些quant的课程。教授的话据在读学长学姐们说也有很多牛校背景。课程比较自由，可以自选6个electives。但有一个小小的concern就是总共36学分，每门课2学分，可能学得广但不太深？
实习工作：OPT12个月，情况不乐观，由于第一届msf还没毕业，所以没有具体信息。据说还是能在DC或者Baltimore找到一些local company的financial analysis之类的.
其他：地理位置靠近华盛顿，找好了一个中国室友一个美国室友，结实了一大帮同去JHU的没有节操的小伙伴
Lehigh MSAF:
两年的项目，但是费用比JHU一年还要便宜一些。录取人数很少，上届35个，但是100%International。项目更quant，OPT有29个月，应该会更好找工作。看CD上Lehigh的官方帖介绍35个里有7.8个找到了工作。也听说四大那种会给H1B的工作很难找，但是一般的挺好找。地理位置离纽约更近，可能会比JHU稍好一些。由于掌握的信息真的不多，把学校官网的项目介绍帖过来了...
The MSAF program is a one- or two-year 30-credit hour program that features: - A joint program that captures the best from the faculty of Lehigh University's four colleges (College of Business & Economics, College of Arts & Sciences, College of Education and P.C. Rossin College of Engineering & Applied Science)
- A dual focus of quantitative analysis and practical applications
- Opportunity to complete the program in as little as one (1) academic year
The MSAF program begins in sequence in the summer with a course on derivatives, followed by a core of analytical courses, a core of financial courses, and a core of computing courses. Students who have completed these or similar courses may, with the program director's approval, use approved elective courses as a supplement. An interactive, hands-on project rounds out the rigorous and rewarding academic experience. Each fall, invited field professionals in financial services come to campus to present project topics to students. Topic selection is integrated into coursework and is woven through the fall and spring terms. Results of the project are presented in mid-spring, at a recruiting/placement event designed specifically for graduates of this degree.
Analytical Finance involves the application of financial modeling, mathematics, and engineering in order to solve actual financial problems and make better financial decisions. The curriculum is intended for career opportunities in areas such as portfolio management, securities trading, investment banking, risk management, and financial information systems.
