Our program isn't on FE News

[frankm1342]

Unless I am doing something wrong, when I go to www.fenews.com and then highlight the 'FEN Directories' tab and then highlight the 'Directory of University Programs', I don't see our school/program listed. If this is the case, I can follow up with the administrators of the website and find out what needs to be done to get that changed.

Frank,
To get listed there, you need to pay a nice chunk of money.
1) Basic Listing: 1,000 characters for $1,500 per year.
2) Preferred Listing: 6,000 characters plus your school logo for $2,500 per year.

The programs listed on FENews are not reviewed by the magazine but rather paid advertisement by the schools. Basically, you write whatever you want about your programs within 1000 characters, pay $1500/year to put it up there.

I don't think our program has that kind of money. However, we rely on word of mouth, via the efforts of alumni, current students. If you like to help our program, get an account on Global derivative, wilmott and answer questions about Baruch program.

Best of all, we have Quantnet where no other programs have such an extensive support forum and website.

We actually have the money to be listed of FENews - Bharath won us money in the Interactive Brokers trading olympiad! Unfortunately, the director of the program did not have the time to fill out the listing template...
