are you here in the city too?

Hey,

I am planning to apply to Stern for Fall 2011. Just a lil bit bit concerned with my profile though. Dont have a lot of work experience and undergrad cgpa is below par.

Applying to NYU Stern Round 1!!

As far as i know, the application will only be available in late Aug.. NYU's round 1 deadline is usually quite late in the yr compared to most other universities.. its Nov 15 or thereabouts.. hoping to get some early info on the essays though..

Hi ..
i am planning to apply for round 1.

I plan to apply to NYU round 1. I have started to outline a rough response to the essays based on last year's prompts with the expectation that the essay prompts will change. Anyone have any additional insight as to when and how much the application will change for this year?

Essays and Deadlines have been updated

Applying for round 1

I'm a waitlister from the 2010 Stern app. Although I still have hopes in getting off the waitlist anytime before September, what's the best strategy in handling the waitlist and reapp?

Will doing a reapp affect waitlist chances? This is an odd situation where one could be a waitlister and a reapp at the same time (if submitted early enough).
