Prestige of NYU Stern

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I have finished my UC App, and now I'm moving on to my Stern App. The cost is def an issue, and most people at my school are so stuck on ucla and ucb that they haven't even heard about Stern...
so, how prestigous is it really? Is it worth the cost over a top UC?</p>

<p>I think if you're sure that u're going into business, Stern might worth the cost over UCs, unless you're somehow 100% sure that you will get into Haas. Even then, Stern is better than Haas if you're going into Finance.</p>

<p>Stern is very prestigous, if you're going into business, you won't go wrong there.</p>

<p>i think it's 'underrated' for west coaster's that don't know much about it. it's not that easy to get into.</p>

<p>One question... how would Stern Finance major compete with Columbia Econ major? Assuming good GPAs / ECs from both schools, which one is more likely to land a job on BB firms and so?</p>
