美国计算机科学硕士先修课要求,美国商科研究生对本科先修课的要求

原标题：美国商科研究生对本科先修课的要求

美国顶级商学院是很多同学的梦想，但是美国商学院的录取条件是非常苛刻的，美国商科研究生申请也不是一件轻而易举的事情，所以大多数同学都在努力提高GPA,不断刷新G/T成绩，四处寻找可提高自身背景的实习及科研资源，以为这样就万无一失了。然而对商科申请同样很重要的先修课，却没有得到同样的重视。所谓先修课prerequisite courses，就是指学生本科教育期间基本上要修过与申请项目相关的一些课程。

很多商科项目的官网上明确要求申请者有一定的相关背景并在开始申请前修完一定的先修课程。例如比较热门的金融，金融工程，会计，以及统计项目会要求申请者必须在本科阶段修过一定的相关课程，就经济项目，也会要求申请者有一定的专业背景，比如 纽约大学的经济项目除了要求申请者修过微积分，线性代数等数学课程 ，还要求申请者有中级微观经济学和中级宏观观经济学的背景。

不要以为学校对这些先修课的要求只是说说而已，像密歇根安娜堡大学的会计项目 ，你很可能会因为没有完成学校要求的先修课而无法提交网申。又比如说 克拉克大学的金融项目如果未完成学校要求的先修课 ，即便能满足学校的各项申请要求，再完成先修课之前也只能拿到一个conditional offer。
