<p>Guys, having a tough time deciding between NYU Stern and UCBerkeley.
Would be great if you could assist me in making a decision.
I want to go into Investment Banking but at the same time double major in eng/cs(atleast a minor in engineering) Now, here's how I see things:
* Berkeley: disadvantage -biz school(Haas) starts 3rd year + you aren't guaranteed admission
* Location: NYU wins cuz NYC 'nuff said.
* Tuition: Berkeley wins.
* Student Body: Berkeley wins, NYU has lower admission standards in general and Berk. is known for being extremely competitive.
* Stability: NYU, (You still have to apply to Haas junior year to major in biz but NYU guaranteed admission to Stern)</p>

<p>I've heard that Haas is better for Consulting jobs and Stern for Finance</p>

<p>Campus: Berkeley wins( NYU doesnt have a campus)</p>

<p>Engineering: Berkeley wins hands down.
Now it may seem like Berks is the obvious choice. The thing,however, is that Stern is #1 ranked for finance and particularly renowned for IB recruiting and has better recruiting from Wall Street IBs like Goldman Sachs. Help me get out of this rut. Really appreciate any help</p>

<p>Honestly NYU stern has far more connections than Berkeley Haas does, FAR MORE. NYU is in freaking New York, the city is unreal, whereas Berkeley is in a homeless town basically. I would choose haas.</p>

<p>Why? You listed the disadvantages of Haas and then said that you would choose it over NYU</p>

<p>Aren’t you an international student? If you are, you are expected to go back to your home country after graduation…
It is extremely challenging for international students to get employed after they graduate.</p>

<p>Congratulations on getting into Stern & Berkely. Both are great options to have. </p>

<p>If you get a chance read my posts on Stern - Amazing Job Placement, Internship Opps, Networking Opps, Travel Opportunities. The school just offers so much. If I were to go back to HS i would’ve applied to Stern ED knowing everything I now know. </p>

<p>Feel free to ask me an questions about Stern as well. </p>
