NYU Stern taking questions

seaverr

Thank you very much for the feedback.

Does Stern has special preference at younger Chinese applicants with age below 27?

I guess not. But at least youngers never stand on age disadvantages while applying for Stern. I'm below 27 and a Chinese classmate of mine had only 2 years' fulltime experience before coming to Stern.

hey, Jeshuatree

I really need your help. I am currently studying in a top 20 business school ranked by US news. Our school's geographical position is not good and hard to find a job for an international student. I am interesetd in taking the Finance majoy, while NYU is sure one of the best choice. However, I don't have any finance backgound before. I studied your critia for the admission, and my GMAT score is low, just 680. 8 years working expeirence, marketing oriented job position in IT industry, 5 years overseas working experience.

One of the toughest thing in the application is WHY NYU and WHY career change...Could you give me a help please? Really need your advice. You could reach me either through mail bobisaguy(A) hotmail.com or call me through 6143973961.

Thanks so much.

Hi joshuatree, I am in US and have green card.  Will I be considered as an international applicant? Do I have to apply in round #1 in order to get an interview? Thanks!

Also, I have a question on the description of my current job function in the application form.
I am a software programmer. Shoud I classify my  job function as engineer or information system? Thanks!

After I read this ,I will stop thinking to apply for NYU since I have no working experience at all. It`s kind of sad to do so, but I think I still can take a chance in the future if I really want to study in NYU.

cookiemax,thank you for your introduction.

Please compare the program, community, culture, alumni network and job placement of Stern and its peers.

What do you get most from Stern?

Cookiemax and Joshuatree,

Could you please say something about the Wall street job seeking situtation for the mainland students who have no working experience in foreign companies?

To what extent can english skill and culture difference be the obstacle?

If they want an intern or job in IB, what should they prepare before their enrollment?
