Hello! I am currently struggling to decide between NYU Stern, USC Marshall, and Tulane’s Altman program in international business. I speak French and I would like to focus my studies on finance.
Can anyone offer insight or experience with the Altman program? Any advice at all would be much appreciated!
I don’t know if you have visited Stern yet, I know you were planning on it. Anyway, everything I have heard from those in the Altman program has been that it is fabulous. A lot of hard work, coupled with a lot of opportunities and a great group of 15-20 that are in the program in each class. If you are sticking with French, you should have various choices as to where to spend your time abroad. Also, since the founder of the program is a big deal in finance, that should be very useful to you as you prepare for a career. I am sure he is available to students that are in the very program he started and is named after him.
One thing you might want to do is talk to the head of the Altman program and get a few names of students that are in their 3rd or 4th year of it. They would be the ones that can tell you why you should strongly consider accepting Tulane’s offer to be in such a unique and thorough program.
