<p>To everyone who asks me to chance them, I don’t think it’s much of a value-add for me to do that. I’ve done enough of it in this thread and in the NYU forum already and it’s mostly guess-work as is.</p>

If you want to minor in Stern as a non-Stern student you will only get one option, “Business Studies.” As far as I know, you simply need to declare it and you can do it. That goes for anyone in any other program at NYU.</p>

It will be incredibly hard with those grades. You might want to reconsider going abroad and postpone it until junior fall; there are still a lot of people who go then and you want to get your grades up. Otherwise, you’ll probably get auto-dinged at most places you apply and the jobs you get won’t be that much of a resume booster.</p>

Unless you come in with every single AP that NYU accepts, 7 semesters is the earliest you can do it if you want a double major unless you take summer courses. My opinion is that you should only do that frosh summer, after which point you ought to be focusing on internships during the summer. Make sure you do your research about the differences between an MSF and MFin, each has its advantages.</p>

You don’t need to take 4 years of science. If you do take an AP science, the advantage is that if you get a 4 or 5 you can exempt yourself from the freshman science requirement at NYU. You are not automatically accepted into the MBA program. Any school that offers undergrad and graduate business degrees has two separate schools that share only name. Stern as a graduate school is completely different from the undergrad program. Stern is not a school you should be aiming at for an MBA. If you can get into Stern undergrad, go somewhere better for grad.</p>
<p>Stern is not particularly good for entrepreneurship. The New York metro area is thriving in that regard, however. You can go to pretty much any program at NYU and follow your passion. Entrepreneurship isn’t something that can truly be taught, it’s an innate passion or pursuit and coursework can only help you understand certain mechanics of whatever business it is you are working to create (i.e. comp. science helps you with programming, marketing helps you with marketing your business, finance helps you understand valuation, etc.).</p>
<p>Your vision probably won’t get any worse than it already is.</p>

2100 is considered the breakwater point. Below that would be rare, over 2300 would be rare here as well.</p>

I strongly encourage it. Were I doing it all over again, Wagner would be something I’d have capitalized on from day one. It’s an amazing program with amazing faculty and it’s a shame they don’t have undergrad majors. The minor is as close as you can get and I really can’t speak highly enough of it. If it is something you are interested in, you shouldn’t care at all what it will do to your grades. Matter of fact, if you DO care about it your grades will be great because you’re passionate about it and motivated to do well. Stop doing things for what you think others will think of you for it and do what matters to you. It’s far more compelling when someone sees another person doing what they love and excelling at it than it is to see someone trying to put a checkmark in every box to make themselves as appealing as possible.</p>

They are now called concentrations, not majors. They made that change for 2015 and on. You may take up to 3, but if you do so, you cannot take a major outside of Stern.</p>

Haha, is that your InfoTech project?</p>
