I know that CBS has an executive program. I would assume that must be one of the top PT programs in NYC
Yea, I have friends at both Stern part-time as well as CBS executive program (which is also part-time, nights/weekends). Both have about the same average work experience (4-6 years) and are both sponsored by current employer. If you are not looking for a career transition and can get your company to pay for it I think either option is good.
Do you - or OP - know what the advantages are of applying to Stern MBA part-time?
Besides the fact that it allows one to work at the same time I've heard the admission standards are lower than FT. Accurate or baloney?
This is accurate and generally true of PT programs.
PT and FT programs are generally the same programs right? Both would be MBAs, but I'd assume there would be elite-ism about FT programs looking down on PT programs in recruitment?
Yes, both PT and FT come out with the same MBA degree. There's certainly an element of elite-ism for those well-versed in the MBA landscape, but once again that also depends on the school culture. I think it's a safe assumption that finding a PT program that integrates well with the FT program is atypical.
Recruitment is a critical factor that you should examine when weighing between PT and FT. If you're looking to career pivot then I would make sure you vet with the school what access PT students have to OCR. Personally, I'd advise going FT if you're looking to career pivot. If it's a check the box type deal, and you're staying in the same function then I'd push for your employer to sponsor you to go PT.
Rutgers Business School has a decent part-time program. Not sure what your concentration is but I hear good things about Pharma and Supply Chain.
Also, Yale and Wharton aren't too far away from NYC by train.
The whole point of a part-time program is to continue working. I doubt anybody can manage a 2+ hour commute to/from class in addition to their job and school work.
I agree but sometimes it's the easiest way to get into a top business school and then later switch to their full time program after performing well.
