说实话，你们有没有想过本身自己的语言就没有好到能和美国人竞争呢?
单凭教育，理海肯定是没有问题的。但其他技能也是找工作必不可少的

你好，首先我们肯定是因为喜欢里海才会去申请的，而最后有没有缘分去那个学校，还要结合自身目的来决定。当然在找工作上我们不能和美国人站在同一起跑线，但是现在是在语言能力和专业能力确定的情况下尽可能通过选校来达到留学目的。而事实就是我发帖的内容。。。里海自有适合它的人，我只是把采集到的信息分享出来。

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening all!

Thank you for discussing Lehigh's MS in Accounting and Information Analysis program. I see that there are some hesitations about the program. I would like to extend some information to show an alternative view of the program.

1) It is true that the MSAIA program does require all international students who have not attended a University in their undergraduate program in an English speaking country to enroll in ESL courses. This has been a policy that has long been placed in this program specifically due to the rigorousness of the program. It is only to benefit the students and help with their adjustment to a classroom setting in the United States.


2) As far as internships, this is largely placed on the students to find and apply for. While we have a wonderful Career & Professional Development Center that assists our students in building strong portfolios, we encourage our students to take the initiative to find their own internships. Within the area there are many companies that our students can use to gain some real work experience within the financial fields.  
Additionally, there are many positions on campus that students can gain working experience through RA, TA and GA assistant ships. These on campus jobs also provide tuition assistance. These are posted on the Graduate Student Life page that can be found here: https://gradlife.web.lehigh.edu/assistantships

Also, we post internship opportunities that are made clear to us in several places. I have highlighted a few to show you the many opportunities that we try and make available for our students.

3) It is true that some of our admitted students are required to take several courses outside of the core requirements for the program. This is clearly stated to our students in a requirements sheet that is sent out with their offer letters. In the program's experience in order for students to be most successful it is important that they complete the courses listed as part of their program. The MSAIA does this with the best interests of the students in mind.

This does extend the time line of the program, but also gives the students more time on campus and in the U.S. to look for internship/career opportunities.

​4)​ Each year the dynamics of the student body changes. We try and keep a diverse population of students, but some times it does lean more toward domestic students in the class. This is due to the high interests in the program from our domestic students.

Please contact the Graduate Programs Office for the College of Business & Economics any time to receive real and honest answers about our programs. We want to ensure everyone has all the information they need when choosing a program to complete their Masters degree.

楼主你好。我是Lehigh MSAIA 16届毕业生，希望就我知道的情况跟大家分享一下。

我13年入学。13年这个项目收了很多中国学生，大概有50+的样子。但是其中大部分是两年项目，与三年项目是分开上课的所以我不很了解他们的消息，所以在这里只就我所知三年项目的情况简单跟大家说一下。

• 人数：8人；14年录取了5，6个中国同学跟我们一起上课，研究生课程基本是一半美国学生一半中国学生。
• 学分要求：我是国内非会计本修了57个学分，比较肯定的说我们每个人都修了50+学分。
• 毕业去向：2 DTT NJ Office，2 PwC (NY Office & China Sourcing - Shenzhen), 1 EY, 1 NY local accounting firm, 剩下两个妹子想回国所以没有actively apply for jobs。我觉得这个5/8这个留美的job placement算不错的了，有兴趣的人我可以提供校友linkedin。
• 语言课：S不到27是要上的，所以大部分人来到这里的第一个学期都会上。语言课也并不是什么用都没有，writing课程里面教改简历和cover letter对以后的求职还是很有用的。
  

补充一点就是课程真的很难压力很大，我上到第二年的时候都准备转去个轻松点的项目了，后来觉得太麻烦就留在了Lehigh。其实苦日子咬咬牙也就坚持过来了，现在我很怀念在Lehigh读书的时光，校园很美，教授们也很supportive。只不过这两年MSAIA录取的学生实在太少了，生活可能会比较单调。这估计也是版上几乎看不见任何消息的原因，我也是今天碰巧要查资料才上了CD， 以后未必会上，有对Lehigh MSAIA有兴趣的同学可以加我微信 crystalcheung943.

最后，每个人都有适合自己的学校和项目，不论楼主选择了哪所学校，都祝楼主成功。
