【已录】WUSTL/WashU/圣路易斯华盛顿大学 MSBA (Fintech track) 22fall kira面经

潘帕斯的云

lz本科末流985，传统工科，3.56，102，325，跨申ba。现收到wustl ba offer (Fintech track) ，tl：1.25 递交网申→1.28 录完Kira（一般一周内完成即可）→3.10 通知结果延期两周→3.24 application portal查到录取（后面一个周一收到正式offer），deposit 4.12

个人感觉wustl ba录取主要看重以下3点：①成绩单上的数学课成绩（主要是微积分&概率统计），②文书，③Kira面试

wustl不是分控，但是一定要认真对待文书，不然bg很好有很可能被rej
