“What I've learned is that pursuing my master's degree and competing as a D1 track and field athlete have made me more organized, resilient, and intentional. Doing one or the other wouldn't challenge me in the same way. Balancing both forces me to level up.” – Ryan Slaney, MS in Finance'26
“The program provided a strong foundation in quantitative financial analysis and allowed me to select electives that aligned with my career goals.” – Harrison Schon, MS in Finance'24, BS in Finance and Fintech'23
“Looking back, Northeastern didn't just prepare me academically. It taught me how to take risks, embrace uncertainty, and step out of my comfort zone. I'll carry that with me beyond graduation, and I'm so grateful for it.” – Sasha Burnett, MS in Finance'24, BS in Finance'23
“While the current times are challenging, the industry will always be competitive, so giving up is not an option. It's really about putting in the effort and creating your own opportunities.” – Bhakti Varma, MS in Finance'17
