<p>NYU Stern (Honors) or Cornell AEM?</p>

<p>I am currently picking between these two schools and know that the comparison of their undergraduate business programs is popular and controversial, so if anyone has any comments, opinions, suggestions!</p>

<p>I was invited into Stern's Scholar Program and was offered a renewable $10,000 merit scholarship (making the yearly tuition around $36,000). However, Cornell is 30 minutes away from home and because I am an in-stater accepted into CALS, the cost to attend is $30,000 compared to the regular price of $46,000.</p>

<p>I realize that Cornell is, overall, the more prestigious institution. I also love its campus, but I do not view it as a complete necessity. And NYU certainly has its perks - New York City, a higher-ranked business school (and chance to be in honors), and more desirable internship opportunities. So hard to choose, please help!</p>

<p>I look foward to your feedback!!</p>

<p>Stern if you're 100% sure that you want to do business, because it is more prestigious than Cornell AEM to business grad schools. Plus, the experience of living in the middle of NYC, along with the possible internships, could be invaluable to you later in life.</p>

<p>If you're not sure about business, I would go with Cornell since Cornell's CAS is significantly better than NYU's CAS. You could always transfer once you're in Cornell.</p>
