treydingo,

I had my interview about a month back....WL'd.....but I can share on my experience. My interview was very much about knowing Stern and knowing yourself and how the two will work together.

Tell me 3 things about Stern that appeal to you the most? What would you be involved in at Stern? Why an MBA? Tell me 5 companies you would like to work with? What about a back up plan if you can't transition into your desired field? What is a challenge you think you will face if you transition into the new field?

But it was very laid back and very conversational. Incredibly friendly staff. The interview started with asking me about some of my personal interest on the resume.

Hope this helps. Best of luck!

iamjoe,

Thanks for the response! What are a few things, if any, that you would have done differently in the interview? Do have an idea of why they waistlisted you?

Does anyone have a rough idea of the dates Stern will be conducting their off-campus interviews in March? I’m about to schedule one in London but will be out of town for part of the month so want to make sure the potential interview date doesn’t fall on a date I will be away…
Has anyone gotten in touch with admissions to get some info on the likely schedules?

hey guys!

Another R2 here anxiously awaiting any word. Submitted mine the day before D-day but due to MLK day my video didn't make it until the day after (was still dated for the day before though).

Figured I'd get actively involved in our joint stress sesh!

Congrats on the admit! What industry are you looking to work in after graduation? I have an admit to Booth as well, but I want to work in the entertainment industry, and Stern seems like a better fit.

I had my interview on 2/09/12 as well - but I have not heard anything today.

Submitted R2 - 1/11/12
interview invite: 2/01/12
interviewed: 02/09/12

I know my time frame has been short in comparison to others... but the post-interview wait is the worst. Hopefully I will hear today!

I had a similar situation - admits from Booth and Stern, and I am planning to work in the entertainment industry after I graduate. While I love Stern, I chose Booth in the end. My "post-acceptancen" experience with Booth has been unbelievable - I cannot tell you how many people from Booth contacted me to welcome me to the community, including a member of the Dean's advisory committee who used to have a big job at a large entertainment organization. When I visited Booth, I met with career services, and it was made very clear to me that they could help me get where I want to be once I graduate.

You should visit both schools and evaluate which one feels like a better fit. Good luck!

Anyone on the waitlist heard from the ad com yet?

I sent an update document on Feb 4th and after an acknowledgement I have not heard from them.

Is there a point in expecting communication any time soon?

congrats! What are the big factors between choosing Stern vs Booth? It seems like this is becoming popular problem. While Booth has a better rep, the two years at NYU would probably be more engaging due to the culture.

what culture are we discussing about here? Every school has some culture..Why is Stern different? Can you please elaborate on that front? Don't take my question as negative but I just want to know more about Stern.

I've just heard that NYU has a more collaborative culture and Booth is more competitive and the students focus more on the individual.

I attented the Booth admit week end and I must tell I was impressed. They look extremely professional. Their career management team is incredible, the infrastructures are amazing etc. It felt like my future would be in good hands there...
Now NY is NY, there is nothing about Chicago that can remotly match what I feel for NY. I am an international applicant and for me the city will be a big part of my MBA experience. Also somehow I always found Stern student more friendly or at least I could relate more with them. This being said, Booth student were incredibly nice with me during the admit week end; so it more of a gut feeling than anything else.

Anyway I still have some time to think and I will try to get the opinon of mmore people around me. I will also try to go to Stern admit week end in April.

I'm sure Chicago is great, plus one can find much better housing for the same price. That said, NYC is NYC. Nothing can even come close in the USA in my opinion. What did you think about the other admits at Booth? I'm sure they put their best foot forward as far as the student volunteers, but were the admits similarly friendly and engaging?

I've just heard that NYU has a more collaborative culture and Booth is more competitive and the students focus more on the individual.[/quote]

I feel like this stereotype is due to the fact that Booth does not have a true "cohort" system. Since the school has a flexible curriculum, you do not attend your core classes with the same group of people. When I visited Booth, I found every person who I met to be kind, friendly, and welcoming. In my own personal opinion, I think that Booth's culture is on par with Stern's in terms of the collaborative nature of its students.

As a native New Yorker, I agree with those who have said that there is no other city like New York. That being said, Chicago is a great city that has wonderful things to offer. I would also say that Chicago is easier to navigate and its inhabitants are more friendly. I think it's much easier to feel lost in New York City than in Chicago.
