<p>Hey guys, I don't know which to choose- Tepper or Stern, I plan on doing something along the lines of international business..
some deciding factors:
1. pittsburgh is ehh
2. its about 6-7 hrs away from home
3. but, cmu will be about 15K cheaper than nyu</p>
<p>Stern is suffering hard. Go ask their current junior and seniors. Wall St. is collapsing and unlike Tepper students who may still get Barcap/UBS/Citi IBD AND get consulting, elite prop shops, and IT jobs, Stern has no way out. When the market was good, Stern was a great feeder. Now, it’s an utter disaster. Having such a huge class (1000) and very competitive students doesn’t help either whereas each Tepper class is around 80 and the quant reputation helps a lot whether you’re doing consulting or trading or whatnot.</p>
<p>yeah, I’d choose Tepper too it’s as good as Stern. It has shown an incredible rise in business school rankings in the last few years and is still developing I personally think it will be one of the top in the world in the next few years</p>
<p>is this for undergrad? BSCF @ cmu is competitive, but people give too much street cred.</p>
<p>BSCF is a harder program to get into, but you must realize BSCF is not part of tepper. it’s more MCS (mellon college of science - mathematics). </p>
