Currently a student at bmcc I want to go to Baruch but I want to be able to land jobs that lay high salaries like 110k entry level type kid a salary. I know if you don't go to IVY leagues or have rich nepotism it's difficult but how likely and how possible is it that I can land a such job coming from Baruch. Any ideas
As of right now, I am waitlisted in 10th place for two classes, BUS2000 and ECO1002, as a 2nd-year undergrad. I am not confident about getting into these classes. Based on people who have experience with this, is it still possible? Thanks ahead of time.
Hi guys, is the FWS waitlist open for the 2026 to 2027 year? If not, when can I expect it to be open?
I have orientation day in July and all my other friends who go to CUNY already got their schedules, is it normal that I didn’t get it yet?
A little bit about me: 19M, I used to be super into anime and I still kind of watch it but not too religiously. I love gatcha games though, I am currently playing genshin and wuthering waves and am open to starting more! I’m always open to recommendations and trying new things. I haven’t met many people at baruch is with these interests and the anime club is a bit too superfluous to me so I never joined. If you want to be friends pm me your instagram and i’ll send you a message. I could possibly make a gc with all of you so we could make a friend group. (Open to all genders as friends)
Hi guys
I need help. I’ve been looking for a place to move in, but everyone keeps saying that I need to make 40x the rent. I currently don’t, and if I can’t find a place, I don’t think that I’ll be able to attend college next fall. I was asked to leave where I live rn, and I can’t find any place.
Is it too late to export mails from old to the new baruch email? Bc i thought it was auto sync but I just saw all my mails are gone
Yes I know Im an idiot. I thought the class started on July 1 but then I checked on cunyfirst it says the class started on June 8th.
I never got any emails or notifications is there anything I can do? The class ends on July 9th.
Hey everyone, I’m an incoming freshman this fall- as a financial maths major. I was wondering if an iPad would be great for this major. I already have a computer, so I don’t know if I’d be that useful to invest into an iPad for notes and pdfs etc

Testing: Test optional (not submitting SAT/ACT or AP scores)

The mentoring work I do now for URM groups is deeply personal because I was once in their shoes. As a child, my parents couldn’t afford a full-time school for me and my siblings, so I attended religious classes at the mosque, the same community where my family relied on the soup kitchen for meals. In fact, there were times when we couldn’t pay our rent, and we spent the night at the mosque. Growing up, all six of us lived in a single-room basement, and I never had my own bed or personal space, which made it difficult to develop my own identity. My parents’ strictness and the social isolation I experienced were particularly challenging for someone like me, naturally drawn to communication and expressing ideas. Despite these hardships, I found a deep sense of solace and purpose in the mosque’s programs. What began as a place of survival, where I learned and grew, became a place of service: I now teach Sunday school there, mentoring URM students, helping them find confidence and guidance in their public speaking skills and religious studies, much as I once did as a child. These experiences, paired with witnessing and navigating personal, familial, and financial struggles, have fueled my passion for philosophy, ethical reasoning, and community impact.

im a us citizen living in india and am planning to complete 2yrs of my ug in india in a good globally reputed university and then try to take a transfer into baruch.Im going to be studying a bsc in finance in my indian uni for 2yrs.If i maintain a good gpa do i hv a good chance of getting accepted?i don't hv any visa prbs so that is a plus point for me.
Is it very competitive? Does it matter if you have a low undergrad GPA but 2 years of corporate experience as an assistant accountant and US CPA equivalent degree?
Hey all, this winter I was accepted into Baruch’s Online MPA program (I live out of state). I was and am very excited to get started as Baruch’s reputation as a school with a strong emphasis in social justice is what led me to apply here. To get everyone caught up on my current thinking, I am a bit dismayed that 1) as an online student I won’t be able to easily pursue the needed electives to get a social justice specialization and 2) that I am on a cohort schedule and won’t be able to graduate faster than three years. Perhaps I am underestimating the time it will take, and truly I am busy what with two jobs, three kids plus a new born, but I was really planning on finishing in two as I am extremely excited and hungry to earn this goal.
My question for those who have some experience with Baruch’s MPA program (online or otherwise) is, broadly, how do you feel about the school and the quality of education it provides. More specifically, is there a feeling of social justice being emphasized even in the core curriculum? Really, any insight will do.
Thanks.
This is a post for my fellow intern who are interning at MTA headquarters for this summer. How are you guys feeling about starting next week and what materials should one bring on the first day? ( p.s this is my first in-person internship)
I’m a CIS major and I’m trying to decide between an Economics & Finance minor or a FinTech minor.
My main goal is to maximize my job opportunities after graduation. I’m interested in GRC, IT risk, banking, and financial services, but I’m also thinking about long-term career growth.
For anyone who’s taken either minor:
How were the courses?
Did they help you get internships or jobs?
Any regrets choosing one over the other?
Which do you think has better long-term value in today’s job market?
I’d especially love to hear from alumni or anyone working in finance, cybersecurity, or tech.
And yes, I know Google exists 😅, but it can’t replace the firsthand experiences, advice, and perspectives of people who’ve actually taken these courses or are working in the field.
Does anybody have any insight into the math placement exam? I really want to take calculus in my fall semester but I think it is implied I have to take summer classes just to place into pre calc? I took ab calc in hs and despite most likely getting below a 3 on the ap exam want to be exempt from this summer class.
People who have taken this exam, what kind of questions were on it, and how high did you have to score to take calculus? Somebody pls help
