Which graduate school would you decided on?
I am getting my BBA in Finance and Investments from Baruch College. I am debating on continuing at Baruch or going to Brooklyn College. I am interested in either the MBA Finance program at Baruch or the MA Economics program at Brooklyn. I want to become a Portfolio Analyst. So I think Economics is a smart graduate route. But I don't know if Brooklyn College has the same reputation that Baruch has. And plus its always good to have a backup just in case. Give a response if you are familiar with CUNY and the two schools I have mentioned. I cannot have any generalized answers and they do not really contribute to helping me reach a decision.

Either - education is just part of it; you have to sell yourself in the real world. MBA is preferred however, I know plenty of folks that were "given" their MBA degrees and haven't a clue on what Business Administration really is..

Baruch is a much better school for you, accor

It really depends what you want to do.. If you want to work in I-bank, wealth management, equity research etc. having designation can give you edge. It's a great learning tool too. It really depends what you want to do in future ? You should check cfainstitute.org or analystforums.com to get specific answers to your question. These and many other questions of this nature are discussed at great length at analystforums.com, use search function :)

Question about College Loans and Debt
Question about College Loans and Debt?
I plan to attend a 4-year program and finance all of my tuition, housing, books etc through federal student loans without paying it until 6 years from now (I plan to pursue an MA in History) Does anyone know if this is possible? Is it possible to default a student loan for that long?

i dont know about 6, but i know they do it after 4. borrow from your parents, if they really love you, they would give you the money. why do you want to graduate school and then have some burden on your shoulder. college is for losers....although im a 3rd year ahaha!
2
If you are just starting out in college, then yes, you can wait 6 years. That is the usual amount of time to complete a bachelor's degree and then pursue a masters. And it's not defaulting, it's deferring... and if for some reason you have to take a break you have 6 months before you have to start paying them back. So, don't sweat, you can get through school with all the money you need and you don't have to worry about paying anything back until after you have graduated and hopefully entered the job field.

re-finance. She can't give or sell to you without the current lien holder signing off. Good luck to you.
2
You will have to refinance. She can remove her name from the deed, but not the loan. The only way she can come off the loan is by your husband refinancing in his name only or in both of your names.
3
Is she on the mortgage too? If so, she'll probably want to be released from the mortgage obligation so you'll have to refinance. Otherwise, if she's not on the mortgage or isn't pressed to be removed from the mortgage, a Quitclaim Deed is all she needs to sign to release herself from the deed.

Me and my husband :) just wanted to share and celebrate
Me and my husband :) just wanted to share and celebrate :)!!!!?
He is my absolute soul mate. Looks like I finally got it right this time!!! He is a pious,religious,spiritual,God fearing man and hopefully we will make eachother better for the sake of allah :) He is an Egyptian Muslim that works in finances ,he has a MA in accounting and a BA in Business. He also has been in America for 8 years,he is sensitive,spiritual, romantic,caring/heart of gold and loves my idealistic side. He is supportive of all my dreams and thinks I am the most beautiful thing that ever walked the earth!! He has no family just like me but tons of friends he calls family just like me. We think alike in sooooo many things and connect on so many levals.He is ultra polite and ultra caring. He respects my spirituality, he loves me as I am and knows of all my trials and tribulations. He is currently hoping to open a CPA business of his own while helping me with my Medical home care business (which he LOVES ,and loves that part of me even more.), and we plan on having kids right away !! We had our engagement AND our Islamic wedding. He treats me like Gold and I think he is made of Gold. :) I thought things like Serendipity ,fate,destiny and true love existed only in fairy tails until I met him. We really were made for each other!!!! We plan on moving next month !!! The actual wedding will be before Ramadan inshallah. :) We do not know where we will live yet,but most probably we will start off in Michigan :) Besides I want to go back to wearing my hijab full time instead of part time,I wore it from 12-26 then a "right to work state" (in otherwords THIER right to let you work lol) forced me to take it off for a while, so Michigan will be more supportive of my hijab untill I am capable of going back to not caring what people think lol. @spiderman -I am ALREADY married alhumduallah and I have earned my right to celebrate !! We had our akad nikah so we are married !! Besides anyone who knows me (I wear my heart on my sleeve and my life is an open book) so people know with all my hardships I deserve this one and if anyone dares to envey me then they will have to go through my problems to earn it lol. @Spiderman I do not care what people think I am simply celebrating !!:) and yes we will both always even after 50 years remember what we felt and said about eachother :) Plus what I mean by envey is hasad !! I just cannot sleep and wanted to share. @Quamar No brothers ,no family I am the same :) and no yemeni blood lol sorry.
