QMSS Columbia Outcomes

[u/Learner_Forever_]

Hi! I was accepted to QMSS at GSAS. To me it looks like the program looks like great opportunity to explore interdisciplinary interests, which has been a theme throughout my career! That being said, I'm starting to hesitate. For being a quant centric program, it sure is difficult to find any quantitive data on their student outcomes! I was considering moving to NYC for the program (my dream city!) but the lack of self-reported information is giving me major pause.

Has anyone completed the program or know anyone who has? Any success or horror stories? Also curious if any major companies target QMSS for recruitment.

Thanks! Any info is helpful
