This is why I find Steven’s appealing:

I need to tell you that info is artificially inflated. The reason it shows that is because 95 percent of the school is doing a STEM degree. Obviously a STEM will have a higher salary because they are STEM degrees. Now lets take another school for example, Rutgers or even NJIT. They have a lower ROI because they have a much more diversified area of academics. More people are majoring in something else like Liberal Arts, Architecture, and many more non STEM areas. You will be surprised how many more people a company recruits from NJIT or Rutgers comparing to Stevens. Doing a degree from a State college in NJ will get you the same salary regardless. This is what angers me, I should have known about this before I made my decisions and going into college debt.
Do we think decisions can come out tm? Has it ever been on a Monday before or only ever Fridays in march?
I tried to look for any info and i’m not completely sure. I think anything is up in the air at this point, but most likely friday. Maybe even wednesday?

Thanks for pointing to the Reddit forum. I appreciate reading other perspectives. It is much in line with my overall positive experience at Stevens (BS and MS living on campus.)

Thank you for this, here are some horror stories:
Some of the content is very disturbing
You can search the Stevens Reddit page using the following keywords:
- Incel - you will find the entire discussion behind the incel culture at Stevens (along with proof)
- Blacklisted or Black listed - you will find dozens of fortune 500 companies black listing Stevens
- Cheating - cheating scandals that caused companies black listing
- SGA - you will find the entire scandal associated with the student government
If you go to the Goldman Sachs website, you’ll see they are doing a virtual event with Stevens undergrads this April.

Yea, you won’t find them at the career fair, the events that actually matters. An btw, those events are only meant for business folks that hold no stem degrees. Any university can register and invite them to attend.

I would like to just speak on the blacklisting subject real quick. A family friend of mine hires people at Morgan Stanley in New York and he didn’t mention anything about blacklisting Stevens. He still considers it a target school for them.

Y’all flaming Stevens
If you are talking about the career fair, the only Fin company that showed up was Barclays. No other fin company was there except small time banks that have a few branches in NJ. A target school means is that they hold multiple events throughout a year (not one), this can range from Hackathons, attending at least the Fall Career fairs, having residency instructors from companies. This is what it means to be a target school. Endless opportunities from one company. Career fairs have shrunk even before covid and it continues to be the trend. Anyone can submit an application online and hope for an interview. That is given at any company.
I have read people at Stevens even got refereed for jobs and their application still got denied because of the blacklist.
