For context I will be graduating with my undergraduate degree in psychology (Yes I know lol) in about two weeks time. Last month I was accepted to Baruch's Masters in Information Systems program with a specialization in data analytics that I will be attending this Fall in person. At the moment because I am teaching myself Excel by viewing videos online and practicing formulas, cleaning data and the like. I know the market is incredibly competitive at the moment but I am willing to start where I can and go from there.

Some questions that I have are: Would it possible to be a junior data analyst with just a bachelors degree? Other than Excel and SQL what else should I be learning? What else can I be doing at the moment in order to prepare for myself and try to land an entry level job as a data analyst? Thank you in advanced!

Just got my acceptance to Zicklin’s school of business masters in information systems program. While I am excited to start my journey at Baruch, I am also a bit anxious as I haven’t attended college in person since 2011. I did my undergrad degree at an online school and it was a good experience.

If any current students could let me know their overall experience. What is the campus like? Does Baruch provide resources for students like internships and job opportunities? This might be a silly question but does the campus have a gym with free weights for students? And what extracurricula events and activities does the school offer for students?
