Best Business School in NJ/NY

<p>Which college do you think has the best business programs in NJ and NY?</p>

<p>Some schools that come to my mind are:</p>

<p>NJ:
TCNJ
Rutgers University
Rowan University</p>

<p>NY:
Cornell
NYU
Columbia
Fordham
Baruch</p>

<p>Which one do you think is the best school to apply to as a transfer student?
Anyone of you in those listed schools? How do you like it?</p>

<p>Columbia doesn’t have business as an undergrad major. I’d go to Cornell, NYU or Fordham as top choices (unless you live in NJ and $ is an issue). You can also look into SUNY-Binghamtom, particularly if you are a NYS resident. My S just graduated from the Gabelli business school at Fordham and had a great experience. But I will warn you that Fordham has a large core curriculum so look at it and work out if you can meet the requirements and graduate on time.</p>

<p>happy1: Thank you so much for your response! Wow, I didn’t realize that Columbia didnt have a business program. Thanks for letting me know, cause I was thinking of applying there. What is your son majoring in?</p>

<p>Dont forget St.John and Hofstra</p>

<p>best business school in nj, rutgers, best in ny, cornell.</p>

<p>Best in NY for undergrad is NYU Stern, not Cornell. Even at the graduate level, Stern comes in above Cornell.</p>

<p>Baruch is no pushover.</p>

<p>Don’t forget RPI</p>

<p>If you can’t or won’t cross the Delaware River to Penn (Wharton), there’s the Finance Certificate at Princeton: [Undergraduate</a> Certificate - Bendheim Center for Finance - Princeton University](<a href=“http://www.princeton.edu/bcf/undergraduate/]Undergraduate”>http://www.princeton.edu/bcf/undergraduate/)</p>

<p>I think NYU Stern is the best business school, but definitely not the best college.</p>

<p>“best” for high finance or consulting type careers is princeton columbia and cornell, but highly doubtful you can transfer in. stern is really hard too, even for nyu students. </p>

<p>for accounting and just general business curriculum something like baruch or fordham is fine. you’ll want to be in an area where you can intern during the year if you can.</p>

<p>Now which school offers the best chance to get into investment banking? I know NYU and Columbia are both good schools for IBD, any other schools?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
