Coming up, I will attend the Master of Science in Management (MSM) program at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and the tuition-free Master of Science in Financial Engineering at WorldQuant University. As soon as the programs start, I will try to document them here. I believe it could be helpful for some.

Once again, thank you for all the help and information! You are amazing!

Amazing! Congrats! That's an interesting set of events, kind of like a big circle to get to where you're at!  Great persistence and perseverance on your end to get to where you're at!  Wow, look at your upcoming Masters, especially both of them are "pretty" competitive for the entry requirements!  Question, did you get the scholarship for the MSM program too?

Thank you! It was indeed a crazy ride of ups and downs, which in the end, turned out to be just the right direction. Just hope my Masters will be a more consistent.. Haha

Yes, I have applied for their scholarship and was nominated as finalist, but ended up not getting it. In a talk with the Dean, he told me that there were just a handful available due to their "razor-thin" margins and that they were just handed out on a need-based basis.
