Admitted. Got the email around 6pm

Crazy that i interviewed tuesday and they told me it would be 4 weeks. Turned out to be less than 4 days!

Many congratulations. It must have meant a lot to you after the 3 dings.

Thanks and yup, was starting to lose my mind. Thought a 730 and a 3.7 was going to open a lot of mba doors. Looks like it only opened 1 but glad to be going to stern.

Congrats to the admits! I have my interview in about 3 weeks. Can you guys give a little insight into what to expect? Posted from my mobile device

I'll second that request although I'll probably only interview in March.

I found the interview to be a pretty positive experience. It was on campus at the admissions office and the interviewer (a member of the admissions committee) was encouraging and genuinely trying to get to know me. They definitely read your essays and resume beforehand as most of the questions are generated from your own history and experiences. I posted a full recap on my interview experience along with the questions that I was asked on the Clearadmit blog under the interview reports for NYU Stern. After the interview, I was told to expect a decision (via email notification) within 2-3 weeks, but heard back in just 3 days! Good luck to everyone!

Many congratulations. It must have meant a lot to you after the 3 dings. Thanks and yup, was starting to lose my mind. Thought a 730 and a 3.7 was going to open a lot of mba doors. Looks like it only opened 1 but glad to be going to stern. Congrats JTS!! Thanks. Ide say my interview was similar. Had a casual feel while still feeling like a professional interview. Mine was a 2 on 1 although i think one may have been there more for observation or training as she didnt ask much. They def knew my application well as they commented on my essay 3 right off the bat. Got asked all the standard questions plus a few others including one thing i would change about Stern (thought that was weird as hard to change what i havent experienced yet). They were also very interested in why i made the career switches i did and when i did. 25 min of questions and i asked 5 min of questions. Make sure you know nyu specifics bc i felt like every time i touched on an nyu specific, interviewer made a note almost as like a plus 1. This was a little easier for me as im an nyu undergrad alum. Best of luck to everyone.
