A: Asa Program Partner with CFA Institute, Tulane’s MFIN Program has been shown tocover at least 70% of the material on the Level I CFA exam. It should bepointed out that a student could take a set of electives that do not coverCFA-related materials, and therefore reduce their preparation for the exam. TheMFIN program should also not be thought of as a review session or “cram course”for the CFA exam. CFA suggests an average of 250 hours of preparation for eachexam. Your coursework within the MFIN program at Tulane should be thought of asone part of a multi-faceted preparation process as you sit for Level I of theCFA exam. 作为CFA机构的项目合作伙伴，Tulane的MFIN项目覆盖了至少70%CFA Level1所要求的材料。但是需要指出的是，有的同学可能会选修一些跟CFA不相关的选修课，从而减少了准备CFA的学习时间。同样，不要把MFIN项目看做是为CFA考试做准备的复习课程或者补习课程。CFA建议每个考试最好是250小时的准备时间，在MFIN项目中的课程可以当做只是准备CFA Level 1考试一个方面而已。

Lastly, CFA provides data feeds to a variety of financialmarket news and analysis for our students to review during their studies atTulane. 作为CFA的项目合作伙伴可以给我们的学生带来很多便利。首先，每年我们会提供一些奖励来帮助学生减少因为参加CFA考试而带来的开销；其次，每年都会针对CFA考试中Ethics(职业道德)部分给学生提供研讨会；第三，Tulane的MFIN学生可以免费参加在线模拟测试帮助他们应战Level I的考试；最后，CFA会给Tulane的在校生提供实时的关于金融市场动态和分析的数据。
