Stern (NYU) Class of 2016- Calling all applicants!

rajiv1984 - I have a better answer for you than my last one. I called the admissions office today. They told me that you only need to be concerned if, on the Status Check website, it says they're missing Essay 2. Otherwise, you should assume it has been received.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

can you tell me if you guys applied to round 1 or round 2? I was round 1 and I had my interview.

Round 1...I wouldnt be so anxious yet if it were round 2

R1, I have my interview in a couple of weeks. Any insights you would be willing to share? Were the experiences from LY's forum pretty accurate?

Hi, I haven't read last year's forum yet but I would say that Stern does a great job on the interview. It was clear that they read my application in and out, so rather than having to explain things already on my app, they gave me the chance to elaborate and clarify. I would say the potential weaknesses in my application were the fact that I'm a career switcher and also that because I chose option A for essay 2, I didn't have a lot of personality in my essays. These were two things that they asked me more about so I was really happy I had a chance to discuss this with them. I think if you know yourself, and if you know why you want to go to Stern, you will be prepared. The process was exactly 30 minutes and very laid back, my interviewer was very nice and asked me about my stay in new york since I was out of town. hope this is helpful.

I completely agree with the above post -- hope to hear back soon!

Hi Krad, I'm just curious when you had your interview? I'm very anxious to hear back from them but it's only been a week. Thanks!

Thanks to you both. Best of luck!

I interviewed on Tuesday (11/26), I'm anxiously waiting as well...I'm sure the break delayed things slightly. When did you interview?

Email from Stern said that they will be adding new interview slots for January early next week. I think this means they still have invitations to send out in December.

I also interviewed the 26th, wish you the best of luck!

Hi,

Is anyone aware of any R2 invites being sent out?
How long does it approximately take?

No invites for me yet... Is there still hope?

Thank you ad209. I got the same answer when I called them. I think we are good!

Krad,
Can you share some of the questions you got during interview, if that's OK? My interview will be on Dec. 19, so I was just wondering what they might ask me about, even though I did find some potential questions online. Also, how did you dress - business formal or business casual? Not sure if they have a dress code specified anywhere on the website. What would you do differently if you had to prepare for that interview again?
Good luck with everything! Hope you get admitted!

Financifella,
If you can share your interview experience, that would be great too!
Thank you and Good Luck!

Carlos,
I just got my invite to interview. Wednesdays seem to be the day. For everyone that is still waiting just keep trucking and have faith.
