I want to become a CFA charter holder. How is the Financial Management program preparing me for the exams?
We are a participant in the CFA Institute University Affiliation Program.

Can I obtain a scholarship for the CFA exam if I am a student in the Financial Management program?
Yes! The Financial Management program is affiliated with the CFA institute, and we are therefore able to grant a number of scholarships for the CFA exams to enrolled students.
