Several reasons - I used to live in NYC and I think the opportunities to network there far surpass Chicago (my personal experience - many would disagree). Also, I am in the entertainment industry, and Stern has relationships with many of the companies that I would like to work for. As cliched as it sounds, Stern really just felt like a better fit for me.

Good luck in your decision! Congrats on your scholarship as well!


thanks! i'm leaning towards stern for a lot of the same reasons...i want to get into luxury retail so the nyc advantage is huge.

who's going to the preview weekend? i booked my (very expensive) flight today.

You are not alone. I am an international applicant for R3 as well.

Do you know when should we expect to first hear from the school on whether we would be extended an interview, waitlisted, or rejected?


Another R3 international applicant here. I really want Stern, so it took me an unforgivably long time to be happy with my application. Any idea what our chances are? I already got accepted with $ for some other schools, and it's driving me crazy waiting for word from Stern.

I have not heard anything about more than full tuition scholarships... wouldnt that be nice, especially in such an expensive city. Mine is "re-newable" providing that I am in good standing. Several people that I have talked to say this is pretty standard - did they note anything different for you?

Which other schools are you considering, if you dont mind me asking?


i know! my terms were also the same.

i'm still waiting to hear back from kellogg but i'm already debating between booth, stern, and ross. i see that you chose stern over booth...may i ask what your reasoning was?


My terms were the same...renewable providing I'm in good academic standing. Seems to be the standard phrasing


So when the admission status changes and you receive the email, does that online letter have the scholarship info? I have nothing in mine => I have no scholarships?

Waitlisted. At least it's not a rejection.

I hope they give me a shot. I hope I get one more chance to prove myself.

No. You only find out about your scholarship when the actual admission package arrives in the mail. This is also where you find out the information about the Kroll background check. Congrats again on your admission!

Same thing here.

Does anybody know when will they start giving out decisions on R2 waitlisted?

Is it too late to hope for an R2 interview at this stage?

I have lost most hope

Thanks mate! I am very excited about NYU Stern, but just a bit worried about the expenses in NYC. With their limited loan programs for international students without a US Cosigner, I am hoping for some $ in the letter. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Just need to vent - I wonder how long I'm going to regret not applying in Round 2. I couldn't finish the essays because a personal thing happened that I'm not comfortable explaining, so I applied Round 3 with no good reason as far as the AdCom's concerned. Still extremely happy about the other schools I got in to, but I don't like wondering what could have been.

Anyway, congrats to everyone who got the call!

Admitted! So this is what it feels like :D
So moving on to the next step...how many people get partial/full scholarship? And how many days after getting admitted, did you guys receive the information packet (specifically India)?

Hit the 10 day mark since the day I interviewed and haven't heard back yet. Finding it so hard to focus at work!

Has anyone completed the Kroll background check yet? How long does it take for them to get back to you? Just trying to get an idea of when I should hear back from them.

Thanks!

Hi xiaxiaqin,

Don't give up hope so soon...I interviewed on 12th and heard back from Stern last week! I think you would be hearing something this week (the timing of the decision is completely independent of the decision itself!)

Also, the April 1st is the mid-decision date deadline i.e. for the interviews or straight rejections without interview.

Believe! :)
