- Students must earn 30 credits for the MS degree, maintain a cumulative 3.000 grade point average, and satisfy all Baruch College, Zicklin School of Business and Executive Programs policies, rules, and regulations.
- A student whose GPA falls below 3.000 after taking 6 or more credits in the program will be on academic grade probation. He or she must comply with all Baruch College requirements of grade probation status to continue in the program. Please refer to the current Baruch College Graduate Bulletin, discussion of General Academic Regulations for information on these requirements.
- Because this is a cohort program, all students take the same courses together and in the same order. The first courses, FIN 9771, FIN 9772, FIN 9773, and Fin 9785 I and II are required core courses. Many of the later courses in the program have one of the core courses as prerequisites. Any student who enters grade probation status may thus not be able to complete the EMSF program within the period of ten to eleven months.
- Students taking all of the courses offered in this cohort program will be registered for 9 or more credits each semester. Thus they considered to be full-time students.
