UHall is located in a nice area, and it's really close to Palladium & all those nice facilities. The rooms aren't quite as large as some of the other dorms, but I think it's pretty nice anyway. No, there are no Stern dorms. I wouldn't say Stern is particularly conservative (aside from economically, of course) nor NYU that liberal - unless you're talking about how they dress XD</p>
<p>amazon:
I'm actually from Ohio too~ I don't know if that really helps in terms of admissions, but it could be a factor since there aren't that many Midwesterners here. I'm sure it could be helpful in terms of making you a more interesting candidate, but I wouldn't rely on it.</p>
<p>safeway:
Just a rumor. It's probably just because a few years back we had a couple suicides within a fairly small timeframe, but NYU's certainly started a lot of initiatives to make sure there's a supportive atmosphere. You can always appeal to the financial aid office and call up the Stern undergrad office, but I couldn't really say anything about your chances. Scholars is an honors group, and you get opportunities to go to events and trips that other Stern students don't. I would say Stern's pretty prominent, especially around NYC.</p>
<p>littlebusrider8:
I actually am a Scholar, and for the most part, it's just the chance to go on trips and a little volunteering. They said they wanted about 70-80 people in freshmen scholars, but people drop out over the years because they can't meet the requirements or don't want to do it - there's about 40-50 kids in my Scholar class. Of course it looks good on your resume, but I'm not sure if it's a huge advantage over other people. As for the classes, it depends on the class - some are pretty objective, some are more theoretical.</p>
<p>superman:
You usually don't start looking for fulltime employment until senior year, though some kids graduate early and thus start looking early. As for salaries, it depends on what job exactly, but NYU's career office says the average starting base salary for Stern graduates is $55k (not including bonuses).</p>
<p>dylin88:
Well, this kind of depends on what you're measuring - UHall & 3rd North are both apartment style, so you also get a common room & kitchen. The actual bedrooms for UHall are probably smaller than the Rubin double I had freshman year, and smaller than some of the Hayden & Brittany dorms... but you do get that kitchen and common room!</p>
<p>Smilies06:
Yes, you can apply for Scholars at the end of your freshman year if you make above a 3.5.</p>
<p>Hi I was recently admitted to Stern under the Stern Scholarship. One of the requirements I must adhere to is to maintain a 3.5 GPA. How difficult is it to meet all the scholarship requirements?</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Can you double major finance at Stern and IR at CAS or something like that, if you're admitted to Stern? How about if you were admitted to CAS?</p></li>
<li><p>Which dorms at NYU have air conditioning and heat? I'm really climate-sensitive.</p></li>
<li><p>Which dorms have the largest rooms? Which are the nicest dorms?</p></li>
<li><p>What kind of ibanks (trading specifically) regularly recruit at Stern? </p></li>
</ol>
<p>If you would have to guess, which school gets recruited from most heavily: Duke, Northwestern, or Stern. Im having trouble picking from these 3.</p>
<p>micheeatsfish:
Yes, so my friend says, but the GPA requirement might be a little higher... 3.65, perhaps?</p>
<p>jetakayao:
Umm, I'm not sure what all the requirements are, but the GPA requirement is probably the most important one. It depends on what classes you take and how well you do, of course, but I don't think it's overly difficult if you don't slack off.</p>
<p>dylin88:
I really liked Rubin. After all, you will probably never get to live on 5th Ave again~ I don't think you can choose your freshman dorm, though, unless you're ED.</p>
<p>ihateCA:
1. If you're in Stern, I think you might be able to - they just changed the policies on double majoring outside of Stern. You might want to keep in mind, though, that IR is an honors major. You have to apply to major in it. I'm pretty sure you can't have a Stern major as a CAS student though.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>All have heat. Out of the freshman dorms, I think only Rubin & Brittany don't have a/c, but you should keep in mind that a/c doesn't usually make a difference after the first two weeks of school AND that you usually can't control the temperature anyway.</p></li>
<li><p>Largest rooms - probably Water St, Broome, Cliff, Lafayette. But you can't get any of these as a freshman... so, nowhere you'll be next year.</p></li>
<li><p>Uhh, all the major bulge bracket firms. Plus, recruiting isn't a HUGE deal since you can always apply on your own to a firm.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>nystudent23:
I wouldn't know, since I haven't gone to either Duke or Northwestern. I wouldn't base your college decision solely on who recruits, though, since you can always apply to whatever firm you're interested in and most of the financial firms are willing to hire from all 3 schools (and fly out applicants they're interested in).</p>
<p>for i-banking its definetely Stern. And because of NYU's location, lots of firms are able to come personally on campus and recruit. Duke and Northwestern must also do well for themselves.</p>
<p>depends on which school you apply to. They pretty much make their decision as other colleges do taking into account your SAT I and II's, essay, transcript, rank...</p>
<p>legionaire:
here's what I took freshman year:</p>
<p>fall:
freshman seminar (Art of the Enemy)
natsci (Plato to Pluto)
compbased
writing the essay</p>
<p>spring:
financial accounting
statistics
business & its publics
conwest</p>
<p>Looking back, I would say that I probably would've tried to shift accounting into the fall of my freshman year so the workload was a bit more balanced, or not taken the freshman seminar because if you want to minor/major outside of Stern, you really need almost all your elective credits. Overall, though, I think it was a pretty good schedule. I came in with APs in micro & macroecon & calc, so I didn't have to take those classes.</p>
<p>i thought you can't place out of calc with AP exams. I don't think they give credit for Micro anymore either. I believe "natsci (Plato to Pluto)" this is natural science. thanks youkosiren</p>
