#

Is there a reason not to apply to both ?

#

Honestly deal with that hypothetical when you get there

#

Apply to both

#

Wait it out

#

No need to get answers that say NYU is better and then you only get into Oxford 😂

#

If you got in ED to NYU u gotta go bro

#

But you can pay, can’t you

bitter iron
#

That’s if your like poor poor

ornate dust
bitter iron
#

That doesn’t mean you “can’t pay”

bitter iron
#

It’s more so an idea of “you will bankrupt if we make you pay this” less so you don’t want to

ornate dust
#

It’s probably easier to get a US job from a U.S. university

bitter iron
#

As far as I have read

#

Also by being in NYC it allows you to be more connected to Econ in the city which has a lot of internships

#

Stern

#

Better for business

#

Do you want to live in England or US

#

Ok then stern

#

Oxford doesn't give you shit for connections here

#

Stern is legit on Wall street

#

Also unless ur God it's gonna be quite difficult to get into both

#

How

#

Good

#

Stern still better

bitter iron
#

Staying?

#

You live in the UK?

slate glen
#

Then oxford

#

If u wanna live in England go to oxford

#

It's pretty simple honestly

#

Just relax dawg

#

You are 17/18

#

It's not that deep 😭

keen osprey
#

You'll be fine from either

#

If you applied ED you are bound. I don't want to pay doesn't count

bitter iron
#

^^

#

I’m going to be transparent
Why is your EFC

keen osprey
#

They didn't say you could just break your agreement. They will release you if you CANNOT afford

#

Not opt not to pay

bitter iron
#

If your under the age of 25 your parents are a part of “paying”

keen osprey
#

Not apart. They are part

bitter iron
#

Refuse != I literally can not afford this nyu be so for real

keen osprey
#

Then you shouldn't have applied early decision...

#

You have signed a commitment to NYU

bitter iron
keen osprey
#

Can you get out of it? probably. They aren't going to chain you up to a desk. But opting out is super unethical

#

How are you going to pay for oxford?

#

They signed the ED agreement too...

bitter iron
#

Yeah

#

Your right
But nyu transparently most likely won’t care

#

also nyu has better connections anyway

keen osprey
#

For finance in the US it probably is. But you'd be fine going to oxford. But the education is very different

#

Just stylistically opposed

white basalt
#

if you want to work in finance in the US (which pays far better than the UK), then NYU stern will place better (assuming you're a US citizen and won't need a work visa)

#

but you ED'd so if you get in it won't matter

white basalt
#

real

ornate dust
#

i guess it's cause there's a high chance you're rejected from both ?

slate glen
#

Bullshit

#

Stern 4% AR

slate glen
#

You friend dumb as hell

#

Wharton is astronomically clear

#

I'm halfway thereeeee

Oh oh

#

Living on a prayer

#

Take my hand

#

Any t10 so hypsm

#

It depends if u wanna live in the us

#

I wouldn't go to oxford over ut austin because oxford doesn't do shit for me with us connections

#

Business is all about networking

#

I ain't networking with British mufuckas

#

How will it help me

#

Yall are actually dumb asl

#

Oxford ain't doing shit for networking in the US

#

How are u gonna utilize the alumni network

#

Not that easy lmfaooo

#

Ut austin is an investment banking target school by all metrics

#

Oxford is obviously the far better school

#

Odisha are u into ib

#

This is the best most coherent list

#

According to everyone

#

I've talked to so many ppl and they all say it's accurate

#

It's completely data based

#

Dawg ur smoking

#

Ross is def a target

#

#

Instate?

#

Your ass is getting humbled

#

Ross has a sub 10% acceptance rate

#

#

No matter ur Application

#

Stern is not a target btw

#

Well if ur full pay maybe

#

I'm domestic

#

I applied to some good business schools and waiting to hear back

Be realistic

80-100k is good for right out of college because u will be a low level investment banker

If you are cs or something 150k is reasonable at stanford/cmu

Hey don’t post your essays here

#

You risk plagiarism

#

NVN it’s GPT

#

Why is GPT so dramatic

#

Also don’t use AI to write your essays lol

You write similar to the paragraph above ?

tough gull
#

Want to get job in US > Stern
Want to get job in UK/Hong Kong/Singapore > Oxford

#

you should get in both unis first

obsidian laurel
#

So sounds like you have a few hours to decide then, also in like 99% of cases if the pay isnt an issue go with stern

#

Or rather

#

IF US

obsidian laurel
#

Just imagine a douchy middle age white guy who is overcompensating but not balding

obsidian laurel
#

Half the cost is appealing

keen osprey
#

Plus a year shorter

tough gull
#

Bro did you even get in

tough gull
#

It depends on what you value for college

#

For just job? Where u want to live

keen osprey
#

Adhering to your ED agreement

Style of education

wet elbow
#

Stern

#

100%

vocal lynx
#

Not sure if anybody has given a coherent answer, but as someone who has applied (and applying), Oxford Econ is definitely better in its educational program. It is arguably among Oxford's most competitive programs and you will be assured of a fantastic education. However, the job market is not great in the UK and you may want to look at NYU for future job prospects. Oxford will also not give you fin aid, and although it is cheaper than NYU on some levels, it is not cheap. Weigh these things up. Hope this helps

#

you don't get in now, interviews have just finished. Decisions in Jan

vocal lynx
#

yes im aware of this

#

mentioned it there, said it's cheaper than NYU on some levels

vocal lynx
#

oxford's network is nothing to sneeze at, but if you're doing business at stern it's diff from econ at oxford

#

they're not comparable. oxford is a more humanities focused school

#

ah so you want to work in the US. then it makes sense

#

don't go by rankings, but sure it is

#

oxford is renowned for philosophy, politics, history, the classics, linguistics etc.

#

you could do economics at LSE and say you had a better education

#

LSE is arguably equal or better

#

neither are easy to get into, and plenty get rejected from lse but get oxford

#

the admission process is completely different

#

and LSE scrutinizes your appliction more than oxford does in certain aspects

#

LSE is a powerplayer in econ and politics. it's also in london

tough gull
#

Js go stern

#

Uk job market is pretty bad rn and recruiting is harder in uk compared to us

#

Go ask this Q on WSO if ur unsure

#

Oxford doesn’t have good career support too so u will have to figure them out by urself

#

Stern has career center and OCR for banking

#

If u want cheap

#

Go oxford

#

No brainer

#

Way cheaper

#

Anyways will get u similar job

obsidian laurel
#

There is no out of state for NYU

#

I fucking wish there was lmao

keen osprey
#

NYC is really expensive

#

NYU is private there is no in or out of state

#

They also EDed to NYU and haven't been admitted to either yet so it is a bit moot

keen osprey
#

It's ED. You aren't really supposed to not enroll....

wet elbow
#

That isn't really correlated

#

Your not supposed to be making a decision here

keen osprey
wet elbow
#

You have committed to a school. It is not really a matter of choice. It is a good school, perhaps better than Oxford, or maybe it is worse, but it doesn't matter. By applying Early Decision, you have committed.
