680 Good enough score for a part-time program at NYU Stern?
10 years of Finance experience (last 5 years in mangement), Top 30 undergrad program.

NYU website says median score is 680 and avg is 677.

What do you guys think?

Without a full look at all your credentials, it's hard to say, but at first blush my answer would be yes indeed, you are in the running. What lots of folks don't realize is that the part time program stats are not figured into the rankings data, so b-schools are more liberal with what they require for their part time programs. Hope this is encouraging to you.

Oh! You are definitely in the running for the NYU PT program. I believe the median score is in the 600s. Your chances were to increase tremendously if you were to apply to their Westchester campus.

Anyone have any experience with the NYU Westchester Option? Ie is it easier or harder to get in then the NY campus.
It just happens that Westchester option is better for me in terms of commute anyway but wanted other's opinion
