Actuaries work for insurance companies, investment firms, government agencies, employee benefits consulting firms and others. The?Jobs Rated Almanac, which rates 200 jobs on the basis of such categories as salary, benefits, outlook for the future, stress, work environment and job security, has rated actuaries among the top jobs in all of its rankings since the 2000s.
Actuaries achieve professional status by passing a series of examinations administered by the Society of Actuaries (SOA) and/or the Casualty Actuarial Society (CAS). Students are generally expected to have passed one or two of the exams while in college, but most are taken after employment.?
The Elmhurst College Actuarial Science Program prepares students to take the first two actuarial exams covering probability (SOA Exam P) and Financial Mathematics (SOA Exam FM) and obtain SOA/CAS credit for the topics of Economics (Micro and Macro), Finance and Applied Statistics.
