Hello, my name is Robert, and I am currently a senior at high school. I have decided that next year I want to pursue a career in finance. After researching this major rigorously, I found out that the job outlook is promising, but only for those who have a master's degree. I am looking to be able get a job right after I graduate from college. My question is how do you get a master's degree? Do you have to go to a regular college to get an undegraduate's degree and then afterwards go to a different school to get your master's? If someone knows anything about this career path I would really appreciate it if you could help me out by providing a detailed explantion of what I need to do, and maybe give me some advice regarding what steps I should take towards the future. Also, if you could help me find the BEST schools to go with for this particular major that would be great! Thanks.

Finance is one of the highest paid and fastest growing industries. Congratualtions on a good career choice. (I plan to go for finance too) I suggest you first get a management degree majoring in finance. Next, get around three years of work experience and go for a masters degree in Finance and specialize in the specific financial sector you are experienced in and like. Note that some top universities won't let you do masters in management programs (like finance) if you don't have the work experience. After that, you'll be set to live the American dream for the rest of your life. You don't necessarily have to get you undergraduate and graduate from the same university. The BEST schools offering finance majors are Harvard, Yale & Chicago Uni. plus a lot others. Check out for the best schools using magazines like The Economist.

Its highly competitive and the degree matters only when you are applying for the job. After that, all the company will care about is your performance. Good luck and all the best.
