NYU Stern vs Northwestern but fr this time

[vapid pulsar]

uh

for what?

consulting, SWE Id go NU

IB go NYU

[hasty haven]

Agreed w eric

Look at eric man so inspirational

[vapid pulsar]

if ur not sure which ur more likely to pursue

id do NU

[hasty haven]

Fr

Ily eric

[vapid pulsar]

because NU is still a low target for IB

so its possible to break in

NYU is basically dead for consulting

both are fine for SWE

So basically if you think youre most likely to do IB go NYU, otherwise NU is my advice

[hasty haven]

Id go NU

Odds are youre not gonna go ib

If ur already unsure u will definitely hate it

[slender maple]

I’d go nu

To be fair I have no pros and cons to go off of

But I’d have to say that NU has the academics, the alumni network, a better campus imo cause it’s on the Lake Michigan and has a beach (NYU city campus kinda mid, I’d know I’m a New Yorker)

And I consider NU to be more prestigious as well

Unless you are strongly considering a career in NY and prefer NYU, I see no reason to choose NYU over NU

Oh, and NU has big ten sports, they can’t compete with those big state schools but I think it’s fun to have a team to cheer for

[slender maple]

i think they're pretty equal to be honest

if you're planning on making a living in the chicago area, without a doubt NU

but if you're in NYC, then maybe it's a toss up

still think NU is the right choice though

[sharp hound]

Northwestern pros:
Much less competitive
Much more flexible
Better consulting feeder
School spirit
Has Campus
t10 is prestigious?
Lower cost of living

Northwestern cons:
IB feeding not as good
No undergrad business school

STERN pros:
More wall street alum
Top finance feeder

Stern is prestigious?
Close to relatives

STERN cons:
Competitive af
Everyone does internships during the year so you have to as well
No campus
No school spirit
NYU not prestigious
Consulting recruitment lacks
High cost of living

[vapid pulsar]

Ill just say again if you're confident you want IB go NYU almost anything else go NU

also just a small vcomment

nyu is def prestigious even as a whole

just not like NU 🥱 💪 🔥

[hasty haven]

Agreed again

[sharp hound]

God I love NU as a school

But sterns career outcomes are insane

[pallid peak]

Huhhhhh

This is tough

For IB I wanna say NYU

I do wanna say NYU is a high target while NU is a low target

Also New York is by far more of an international urban center than Chicago, which offers its own benefits

But I think like Eric said, NU if you aren’t set on IB

[vapid pulsar]

i will say per capita NU isnt that much worse than NYU for IB

But still NYU is the better choice

[pallid peak]

True
