STERN FOR ED 2?? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

<p>Hi guys, I got rejected from Wharton for ED and now I'm considering applying ED 2 to stern. I'm mainly interested in entrepreneurship/ management/ marketing.</p>

<p>I am not looking for Aid and I'm an international student with good grades and excellent extra curricula's. A SAT score of 2200+, 2- 5s in my APs and 2- 800s in my subject tests.</p>

<p>My other top options include Carnegie (Tepper), Georgetown, Cornell, UMich (Ross), and Boston College</p>

<p>Do you feel its worth applying ED 2 to stern or should I just apply regular to all? Is it better than the above mentioned for what I want to study?</p>

<p>Concerns with Stern:
1) Not very entrepreneurial--Stern's main focus is finance and doesn't have many courses, resources etc for entrepreneurship
2) Very high cost of living
3) No campus
4) Not the ideal college experience- sports etc</p>

<p>If you are sure that you want an entrepreneurial environment, why don’t you go to babson college? You will surely get in there considering your stats and that you dont need aid.</p>

<p>Stern is more of Finance.
Ross is supply-chain.(if im not wrong)
BC would be accounting.
Cornell is Applied Economics.</p>

<p>dunno much abt rest, but georgetown and tepper are more business oriented.
you really have a shot at babson college, but only 3days left for apps to be turned in.</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

<p>oh and btw… speaking of your chances at stern, trust me it is really hard to predict. I got rejected ED as was expected. but people with like 2300+ SAT got rejected and some with 2050 got accepted. So cant predict.</p>

<p>@am291x‌ thanks for your comments! I’m leaning towards Stern because of the amount of opportunities in the city for entrepreneurs–internships at startups etc. </p>

<p>The reason I didn’t like Babson as much was because I didn’t like their very narrow-based curriculum. Though I want to do entrepreneurship, I want to take classes in a variety of fields </p>

<p>Can anyone at stern please tell me about their experiences or heard about experiences of non-finance students?</p>

<p>i’d say do regular just to keep ur options open, i know people from ross who have done far better than stern undergraduates, so consider doing rd everywhere unless ur sure you want to do ed II to stern</p>

^That reasoning makes no logical sense. There are kids at every school that do far better than the average kid at other schools.

If you want a good shot at stern I would highly recommend doing ED 2. RD acceptance is single digits while ED is probably high teens.

Also regarding your concern about non-finance roles - There is a huge Entrepreneurship Center here and there are a lot of VC competitions NYU sponsors and student get money for every year for their ideas. Other popular fields are marketing, data/business analytics, consulting, business strategy and development jobs at start-ups other companies.
