CFA, High GMAT, low GPA. Chances?

Hi Stacy!

I am quite puzzled as I've read 100 different things from 100 different people about my profile.

GPA: 3.15 (top 5 undergrad finance)
GMAT 760 (49Q, 44V)
Work Experience: 5.5 years at matriculation (3 large finance companies), structured finance
Certifications: CFA Charterholder
Asian American Male, US Citizen

In undergrad, I slacked off of my core classes and instead fell in love with French. I got straight A's for my French courses. I didn't find my passion for finance until I started working. No advancement (except salary) in my first two positions and promotion at my current position.

I know Harvard, Stanford, and Wharton are out of my reach due to my GPA but do I have a solid shot at 5-15?

My ideal schools:
UCLA, UC Berkeley, Columbia, Duke, Northwestern, and NYU Stern

Thanks for your help!

Hi greenbags125,

Thanks for your post. You have a strong candidacy. Although your GPA is lower than the averages of the programs you are considering, there are ways you can address this in your application. I recommend you read this case study of a candidate with a sub 3.0 GPA who was accepted into a top MBA program, it should provide insight for your application: https://www.stacyblackman.com/client-stories/
