First of all, thanks CD for arranging this event!

I have two question for Yuen:

I also have an engineering background as Yuen and I plan to do marketing work in technology industry after MBA. New York city is the reason I am so interested in NYU.

But except the location, could you please tell me what other aspects I would find in NYU MBA program that are supporting my NYU application?

And, from your perspective, how NYU is different from other top schools?

Thanks a lot,

Francy

能不能谈谈前辈们在interview时的经历？

好像Stern只有Hub的，没有很多学校有的Alumni面试，而且官网上说international的hub一般在3,4月才安排，那么是不是即便申请R1，也要等到那个时候才会有面试呢？

Stern的hub面试有什么特别需要注意的地方么？

谢谢！

Thanks so very much for the kind arrangement and particiaption by everyone from NYU Stern School!

Here are my 4 questions:

1) I am consultant for commercial aviation business (e.g. airlines operation, JV formation, M&A etc). My firm has busiess with almost every major PRC airline and airport, and I decide to make a career out of it. Based on your 1st-and feel of NYU Stern, will this school be an ideal place to facilitate my pursuit in this direction?

2) I noticed may MBA candidates are below their 30s when starting the programs there. Could you kindly tell me: based on your observation, is there any preference or "discrimination" from those admission offices (Stern or other schools) regarding prospective-students' age?

3)Have you got loans from any US banks for the tuition, or how is the possiblity of getting such loan?

4)Could you share some of your experience of how to obtain good Englih listeing/speaking before or during your MBA programs?

Once again, thanks for sharing the information and your experience. This gesture is very much like the kindess demonstrated by alumuni-network!
