I've got a masters degree in finance from a secnd rank university (nOt like Russian economic school). I think that it isn't known in the US at all. Have I got a chance to enter PhD in the US or better to drop the idea?

| it depends on the rank of schools you are planning to apply to, GRE score (schould be very-very good), and your reaserch interests.. good luck..i think that you can make it.. |

Hi, depends a lot ,
PhD in Finance implies you you want to get into a B-School (that's where Fin depts are). To tell the truth, it's a longshot, Finance PhD program is the most competitive among other B-School concentrations, and B-Schools PhD programs are the most competitive among any other schools (many reasons - opportunities, amounts and conditions of fin aid etc). But there's nothing unachievable. But what'll matter is your mathematical background - not your fin, econ , whatever prior knowledge. That's why te degree from say PhysTech or MexMat MGU would definitely help.
Best. |
