The Master of Science Program in Finance at the ____ School is my first choice among Master’s Degree programs in Finance, because of its sheer excellence; and the fact that I see myself as the best fit for the program at U__. This is all especially true because my fiancé is already studying for her MSF at USC, and we would very much like to study in the same program, at the same university. Falling in love to begin with had much to do with the fact that we both love Finance, hence the stimulating conversation. I have researched Finance at U__ in an exhaustive fashion, and I am sold on your program and everything that it has to offer. If selected, I will feel honored, and most definitely attend.
I keenly look forward to giving my professional lifetime to the study of Finance, helping people and organizations to resolve their financial issues in creative and profitable ways. I could not be happier with the choice of Finance for my career, because it will enable me to make major contributions to the economic development of my community, and, by extension, global society.
I adore the complexity of financial markets and thrive on volatility, always searching for the big picture set in the context of time as well as space. I hope to be selected to study toward the CFA3 certificate to become a recognized expert on the forefront of global financial market analysis. My focus is on quantitative finance, and I hope to pursue this and related areas of inquiry for the balance of my professional lifetime, contributing to both research and development in financial sectors.
Fiscal management is the center of my world, along with big data analysis, new product design, asset management, marketing, CPI, ADR, bonds markets, financial news, everything about foundations stock trading volumes, and ETF – all are foremost interests, personal as well as professional, especially since my fiancé is also studying Finance and we spend much of our time talking about it, our own finances as well as everybody else’s. We both enjoy analyzing the essence of a company's financial reporting systems, doing market analysis. I like to analyze and improve my understanding of world financial markets and case-scenarios in troubled times, risk avoidance, survival.
False pay issues and corporate efficiency, as well as consumer spending are some of the areas in which I have engaged in extensive research. I am at my best in the study of forms of consumption, the impact of culture on the market and projections concerning the scale of a market in the future. I seek to help people make well-informed decisions about which products and companies to invest in.

I also spend a lot of time reading about relationships between my native China and the USA, and this is especially true since tensions heightened during the first Trump administration, and even more so most recently, because of the war in Ukraine. My fiancé and I are busy studying potential impacts for the financial world.
When I am not eating, sleeping, and breathing Finance, I go to the gym, and do volunteer work in the community, helping to serve meals to kids and teaching them about the importance of nutrients.
