Apply to Saint Anselm

Being a finance major was a great path for preparing myself for a successful career but also understanding the fundamentals of how to manage my own finances outside of a career. Saint Anselm College, unlike other schools, incorporates the liberal arts into every major, including finance, giving me an edge in the profession.

Many students use it to earn certifications in Bloomberg programs and find job opportunities.
