Harrison O'Shea

I was accepted to six of Europe's top finance master's programmes in a single cycle - including LBS Masters in Financial Analysis (with a Merit Scholarship), LSE MSc Finance, UCL MSc Finance, ESADE MSc Finance (with Scholarship), Bayes MSc Corporate Finance (with Scholarship), and IE MSc Finance. I know what makes a strong application because I built six of them simultaneously, each tailored to different programme structures, essay formats and selection criteria. I'm currently a final-year student at LSE and will be joining Evercore this summer as a Summer Analyst in M&A. I bring a practical understanding of how admissions committees evaluate candidates for competitive finance programmes - what they look for in personal statements, how to frame non-traditional backgrounds, and how to position yourself for scholarship consideration. If you're applying to Master's in Finance programmes in the UK or Europe, I can help with programme selection and fit, personal statement and essay strategy, CV positioning, interview preparation and scholarship applications. I went through every stage of this process recently and at scale, so my advice is current, specific and grounded in what actually worked.
