<p>I'm seriously consider about Stern, and some friends told me pros, while some cons...</p>
<p>so would the current Stern students give me advices if it is worthwhile to pay $50,000 for Stern study and why?</p>
<p>btw, I got accepted to Stern...and I'm wondering go or no go..</p>
<p>I thought Stern is $47k...
I am also caught up with deciding on Stern.</p>
<p>yes, 50k is a more conservative estimate, 47k is more accurate..</p>
<p>where are the stern or NYU students...help!!!</p>
<p>stern students, where are you?</p>
<p>i'm a sophmore at stern. so tell me what are your majors? if you wanna do finance, accounting, econ, international business and even marketing... defintely worth it.</p>
<p>i mean... what more advantage do you want? you have new york city, the financial capital of the world. amazing opps to get internships and build a lot of connections thru the other sternies. </p>
<p>however, if you are looking for a fun and easy four years.. don't come to stern. it's tough and rough but they do build you into a good businessman. i mean, i think stern is worth it and i love everything about it. i'm a finance and accounting major with a co-major in international business. i'm also currently interning for JPMorgan. </p>
<p>personally, i think its worth it. i love my classes, the professors and enviornment.</p>
<p>any more questions?</p>
<p>I notice you mention marketing - it's worth it for marketing? Is marketing as hard as finance or accounting?</p>
<p>wow..is double majoring in accounting and finance...extremely difficult?</p>
<p>i would think so^^^^</p>
<p>A lot of people double major in CPA & finance at Stern - it's actually not too bad since at least one of the classes overlaps, but you will definitely have to go over 128 credits (the usual number to graduate) in order to complete both majors.</p>
<p>I second nhoness on the opportunities at Stern. You won't get CEOs and partners in hedge funds and random people from all the major financial firms coming in to talk to you anywhere else. But yeah, on the con side, it's kind of hardcore. I wouldn't say necessarily the classes because it's pretty easy to get a B+ average with just the minimum of work, but the atmosphere is. People here are driven and ambitious, and if you are, like I was, completely unsure of what you're going to do in the future, it will freak you out. Freshman year, kids will be working on Wall St and planning out their futures so they retire at 30, and you will feel utterly behind. It's not all bad though - it makes you focus on what YOU want to do, so it works out (at least, it did for me)</p>
