Corporate jobs dealing with company financials, working out financial models for companies and products, research analytics. Shouldn't be hard.

it CAN be done in 12 months...... 30 grad credits can be difficult in 2 semesters.... best to prepare for a full calendar year.

Being a Malaysian, you should know that with a Bachelors from a US Uni, you are probably over-qualified for a Masters in a Malaysian Uni. Have you kept up to date ? Try Singapore. :)

I received a mail from Concordia University in Montreal regarding the Master of Finance course. It's better to take full time and the average salary upon graduation is C$75000/year. University in Malaysia = University of Rubbish. Even our education minister sends his kids to Australia. HAHAHA Recommend: University of Manchester twinning at Sunway College

Do in UPM. They have the best postgrad business courses in Asia. Even foreign students flock there yknow!

If you strictly want to study under Malaysian uni, I believe Izzie is right. UPM is the most reputable uni for postgraduate studies. UiTM is reputable as well but not sure about their masterate programme and as you know, it only accepts bumiputra. UM? Well...... If you think only Malaysian uni just because you are only able to do it on part time basis, you may alternatively overseas uni that has twinning programme with Malaysian colleges (like Segi College) or overseas universities that offer long distance education programme.

I am in college about to major in Marketing, would a masters in Finance polish my resume?
or are they too different. Also, are people more likely to get hired depending on the school they graduated from. Right now Im attending Clayton State University, its part of the UGA system, but its more of a community school. Ive been thinking about transfering to UGA, but will it make a difference? Or should I just do my masters at UGA?

Yes - the double degree will make you more marketable especially if you can back it up with some internship experience.

You could do a search on "MS degree in finance" or whatever, or consult a guidebook for graduate programs, either printed or on line. Are you sure you'd need a Master's degree? If you already have experience, you may not - or you could work on it part-time while you work in the field, perhaps.
