Hi all, I was recently accepted to the full time MBA programs at Johnson (Cornell) and McDonough (Georgetown). I was also waitlisted at NYU Stern. I'm currently working in consulting in the greater New York City area and am seeking a career change into finance. I'm weighing my options on which...
Stern out of USNews Top 10, Darden in !!!
Not sure why this didn't happen earlier, but Stern definitely does not deserve to be in the Top 10. USNews finally did the right thing and pushed them out of the Top 10. http://poetsandquants.com/2015/03/03/darden-slips-back-into-u-s-news-to… Before USNews releases their 2016 rankings, I will...

CUNY Baruch to NYU Stern?
Hi all the amazing monkies. I am a HS senior and very settled to pursue a career within the IB industry, specifically FO because I had some exposure to M&A . (I decided to follow this path after very serious consideration. My family has some network within the financial services industry in Asia,...
How prestigious is NYU Stern (UG) throughout the country?
I've asked Sternies on their Facebook group and they all agree that Stern has a tremendous presence on wallstreet, as many major firms go to hire there annually. Based on your experiences, is Stern really that highly regarded among major firms? Also is Stern a respected college in the West Coast...
Should I drop my ED agreement for NYU Stern Undergrad? (Moral and financial reasons)
Long story short, I got accepted into Stern ED, 2250 SAT, 3.7 UW GPA with 9 APs, etc but I didn't get any scholarship/grant aid, and all we got were a $67,000 / year price tag. Let's just say $70k as that tuition doesnt include how much you'll spend with friends outside of NYU. Seriously, what on...

Hi everyone I am hoping to get into one of these two business schools next year. I want to work for a top-tier BB post-MBA. So any thoughts which school is better for me? I hear that Tuck maybe has the best alumni network (correct me if I am wrong), but Stern is clearly at a better location. So I am...
NYU Stern: overrated MBA?
Everyone says that nyu stern is great for finance, due to its strong faculty and NYC location. But when i look at the actual job placement, i was surprised at how bad it was. Even with BB banking and trading, which is their bread and butter, they didn't place that well. And of course, buyside firms...
Are Stern MBAs looked down upon?
So I'm looking at applying to Stern this upcoming year along with other schools. When I talked to friends and alums who went to M7 schools, they all laughed at Stern and say that people don't take their students and alums seriously. One Wharton guy said that during the London banking career trek,...
NYU Stern or Barnard?
I have to start off saying that I know it is hard for people to agree on which school is "BETTER." There is no such thing that some schools are definitely better than some other schools, because, in my opinion, education is education; competitiveness of students may vary, qualities of teaching may...
UCLA or NYU Stern (UG)
So I'm mainly deciding between UCLA and NYU Stern at the moment. I'm definitely leaning towards Stern for the great job placement, but I'd greatly appreciate any input on this whether it be for the college experience, competition within the school, or job opportunities. Although I've mainly narrowed...

Retail Hates The Middle Class
What will retail look like in 2020? According to NYU Stern in a joint project with IBM , the retail landscape is on course to change dramatically. Following the paper’s train of thought, drastic change is nothing new for the retail industry. From the early department stores wars to Walmart’s...
MBA at Duke Fuqua or NYU Stern?
Hey all,
NYU students learn first class Value Investing
I think the practice Jamie Rosenwald gives his Stern students in the "Global Value Investing: Theory and Practice" class is neat: The class gets to pitch a stock with "skin-in-the game", since one tenth of the $1 MM he donated to the university endowment would be invested in one or two stocks a...
Undergrad Programs Stern vs Columbia
I'm a senior in high school trying to decide between Stern and Columbia, purely for the prospect of ib recruitment. I realize that similar posts such as this have been made but they seem to be either pretty outdated or contradictory of one another. A couple of my concerns are that 1. Is there...

NYU Stern Recruiting/Target

Is NYU CAS Economics a nontarget?
I am trying to decide between schools right now and I have been reading all over the place that NYU econ is a nontarget. I know that they have access to most of the on campus recruiting opps that stern students have, which is access to almost every known bank in NYC . Do banks really weed out econ...
Current and Former recruiters, please just 1 minute of your time to read this thread..
Hi, I am a freshmen attending NYU Stern this fall and from reading a lot of sources (including this forum), I've learned that Stern is not that spectacular and, may be even looked down upon, especially compared to other prestigious universities like ivy leagues, Duke, Chicago etc. I clearly do...
