Calling All NYU Stern Fall 2011 Applicants

^^ congrats to all the new admits today!! and it's only Monday too . historically we've seen a lot of admits on Wednesdays.

Surprising that many were admitted without phone calls or emails. Congrats to the admitted! NYU Stern seriously needs to revamp their notification system.

can anyone point me to the right direction in terms of taking any supplementary course as part of improving my academic record.

gpa and gmat are not that great and i thought that either a quantitative course or any kind of course would be good to improve my academic record.
looking for courses preferably in europe, or would have to look at the US, preferably nyc.

many thanks

I'm in!!! Applied on deadline. Interviewed 4/4. Accepted 4/11.

See you guys at preview weekend!

Can anyone give me some advice on Stern vs. Ross, from a career opportunities perspective for an international student (including the likelihood of getting in as well as the salaries), especially if the goal post-MBA is to get into a corporate strategy role either in a technology company or a financial institution, primarily in the west coast?

In! Interviewed last Wednesday 4/6. Looking forward to Pre-view weekend.

Agree that one needs to take these things in stride, but the fact that some R2 applicants - who applied in early January - are still waiting for initial notification is borderline absurd. Many such applicants have received other offers and need to make a decision about whether to put down a hefty deposit before they will hear whether they are invited to interview at Stern. This is particularly gut-wrenching for candidates who rank NYU as their top choice.

Applicants put a lot of work - and money - into their applications and apply with the expectation that they will hear back by the notification date provided. Schools that fail to adhere to their notification schedule are simply not living up to their end of the bargain. And that's just not cool. My $0.02.

Has anyone who was waitlisted w/o interview for R2 subsequently been asked to interview?

I'm certainly not an authority on this issue, but I highly doubt it. Per the posts above, there is still a handful of R2 applicants that have not received initial notification. It would be doubly unfair if waitlisted applicants were invited to interview before these applicants hear *something* regarding the status of their applications.

But then again, what do I know?

Canceled my interview and withdrew my application. Good luck to all!

Hi Everyone,
I have an interview next week. Any advice for the interview would be much appreciated!!!!!!!

Thanks and congrats to all those who were accepted!!!

I interviewed for Summer Start yesterday on campus. The interview is no different from someone interviewing for a regular August start - in fact we didnt discuss Summer Start until the very end of the meeting. The questions were all behavioral, walk me through your resume, why mba, why stern, etc. Best advice is to be relaxed and excited about Stern (which it seems like you already are so thats good).

anyone finished kroll for nyu yet? do they contact the recommenders? just wondering if i should tell my supervisor that i got in.

Congratulations to all the admits!! Look forward to seeing all of you in the fall. Unfortunately wont be able to make it to NYC for Stern Preview.

WL after the interview (3/30)...sucks! what's the timeline for the WL folks?

Sorry to hear that. When did you interview?

Looking at prior years the timeline goes deep into the summer.
