Just a little tip from a fall student, you don't need to wait for the official letter. Your password is the same as the one for the status update page :wink:

There's only one class in Westchester so it'll be about 65 students there. The rest will be in Washinton sq.

guys i have a few questions about the nyu PT program...
do graduates of the PT program have the same MBA degree as nyu FT students? or does it say NYU Part-time MBA...
for example what would one put on his resume?
also, generally how do career switchers fare going into the PT program? does anyone have any research, links, or opinions they can share? My employer will pay for the nyu pt program...but since i am a career switcher, i'm trying to think of what's best for me.


I’ll share some of what I know and give you a little bit of my own story, maybe it will help…

Langone stresses career progression in their application progress. Most people who get in are extremely successful in their field and have promising careers. They expect that the MBA will propel them to the next level (for instance, the talented manager who wants to make director.) That’s the service Langone is providing for your 100 grand.

On the other hand, traditional on campus MBA Recruiters look for younger, entry level people who have a lot of flexibility (to travel, work slavish hours, etc...) Full time students tend to fit this mold far better than part timers. The commitments to our jobs and lives that caused us to be part-timers in the first place work against us in the traditional MBA recruiting process.

So try this… draw up your resume and, in the education section, put in an NYU – Stern MBA. Does your resume look like one that would open the door to the job you’re hoping for?

This little exercise led me to a lot of soul searching. I ended up forgoing my employer’s offer to pay for my MBA and I’m now nearing the completion of a switch to a new company that wants me in a far more elevated role. Financially, it ends up being a bit of a loss for me (I gain in salary but lose ~$35K+ a year in tuition reimbursement), but it will put my career on a far better track and should pay off handsomely in 2 years or so…

So the lesson I learned is that the MBA can be a powerful tool, but it won’t do all the work…



Oh... and it's the same MBA, same teachers, same building, same clubs...
BUT, you will not have access to on campus MBA recruiting... thats the key difference.

Any idea why they aren't letting wait listed people know? I am still on it as well, and can't understand why they keep so many in limbo if clearly there are very few (if any) spots left.


Some people may have sent a waitlist reply that indicated that they are planning to retake the GMAT during the wait so adcom may be waiting for that info. I thought this was just a rumor but I was on the waitlist and they waited until my new GMAT scores came in before admitting me.

I was admitted to the Fall 2008 class and while I was waiting for classes to begin, I put together two things the Spring 2009 candidates will surely find helpful. The first is an analysis of the admitted, dinged, and waitlisted candidates from Fall 2008. It has stats and an analysis of the wait at the bottom:

post474295.html#p474295

The second is a ranks file that is described when you follow the link:

post494692.html#p494692

Best of luck to all!

School will deny it, but all signs point to weekend being much harder due to limited spaces in that program.
