AAMC Selection Process

The Alternative Asset Management Center (AAMC) at its core is one required academic Honors Level course. Students can take an additional Master’s Level class in either energy or hedge funds.  The AAMC curriculum is rigorous, demanding and requires a high level of academic prowess. There is no set limit on the number of students that are accepted. The quality of the applicant pool determines the number selected.

ADMISSIONS PROCESS:

The admissions process is two-fold.  First, a student must be academically qualified to undertake the honors program (as determined by the finance department).  At the time of the admission process, the student must demonstrate that they are likely to meet the minimum academic admission standards, outlined below, and that they have completed the expected course work for a finance major.   If the applicant meets the minimum academic expectations, they will move to the second phase of selection.  The second phase of the selection process consists of typically 5-8 interviews.  At least one of those interviews will be with a finance professor, and the other interviews will be done by alumni of the program.   

NOTE OF CAUTION:

The Selection Committee recognizes that the selection process is noisy, and we urge applicants not to read too much into the selection decision. Admission or denial to the AAMC is not a selection of winners and losers for future finance jobs. The Committee endeavors to admit students who will thrive in a fast-paced and demanding academic program.
