Admissions

Excel in the finance world

Our STEM-designated MS in Finance is designed for talented thinkers who solve problems. An undergraduate degree in business is not required—or expected. We, along with many of our top recruiters, value the combination of nonbusiness backgrounds and advanced training in finance.

    A grade point average of 3.2 and above is expected. Please send official transcripts to Kelley School of Business, 1275 East Tenth Street, Suite 2000, Bloomington, IN, US, 47405. Upload unofficial copies of all transcripts to the Additional Uploads section of the IU Online Graduate and Professional Admissions Application.
