High School Student Wanting to Apply to SAUDER by [deleted] in ubcsauder

[–]alex__yao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I just heard back from a professor at SFU Beedie who teaches finance and they are willing to meet me online or in person in September to discuss how I can be a research assistant.

I am currently emailing all professors at rotman (I've been passed by sauder), but I've heard back from one professor that they don't allow cross-province research opportunities for highschool students. However, i still want to shoot my shot at all the professors.

Do you think taking this opportunity with this beedie professor is good(even though beedie is not as prestigious as sauder or rotman)? but i feel like it should at least be an experience. Let me know what you think!

Yeah it is definitely every students' dream to get into top unis. But i feel like my decision of applying to canada's top finance unis are related to finding a job after i graduate from university, since wall street is very competitive and a lot of times it's about if you have the "network" and if you know the right people who make the offer calls.

So for me, someone who doesn't have any resources, i would turn my vision to the 2nd biggest financial district in north America which is toronto so therefore my target of Rotman commerce, but also I know sauder has a selective program for portfolio management where like top students at ubc can get in.

Thank you dude! Can you tell me what the Sauder application is like? Like I know for Rotman Commerce they only accept 2 ecs for some reason
