You should hold, or be predicted to achieve a first class or strong upper second class undergraduate degree (with honours), or the international equivalent. If your degree result is lower than this, it is very unlikely that your application will be successful. If you have a Master's degree, we will still look at your undergraduate degree as part of your application review. Your degree does not have to be in Finance or Economics, however it is important that your quantitative skills are very strong and that you can demonstrate these. At the start of the course all students are expected to have a working knowledge of calculus and should know the basics of vectors and matrices, probability, statistics, and econometrics.
