»April 22, 2009: Comments about NYU Courant MFE program: If you are part-time, they won't help you at all. Basically you're a cash cow.
This also applies to Courant Institute s math in finance program right next door to Stern. If you are part-time, they won t help you at all. It almost seems like they are happy to let you enroll, milk all the financial aid they can, but won t help you find a job appropriate for your newly minted degree. Basically you re a cash cow. » ...

»November 19, 2008: Blogger "One": NYU Stern needs to stop the false advertising in their recruitment efforts for part-time MBA students
one on November 18, 2008 at 9:48 AM You made some interesting points in your post. I agree with your first point, if you intend to change careers (even slightly) the part-time program is not a good fit. However, that is not how Stern is selling the part-time program. The presentations and marketing materials do not make any mention of that fact and, in many ways, they say the opposi... ... (MORE)

»November 19, 2008: Comment about NYU part-time MBA tuition: "You think if you were paying more you would get a better deal"
one on November 18, 2008 at 9:53 AM: The worst part is that part-time pay significantly more than full-time students. Part-time students pay "by credit" whereas full-time students pay "by semester". You think if you were paying more you would get a better deal, especially at a business school. Not so. ... (MORE)

»October 22, 2008: Stern's part-time recruiting issues: a word from Part-time Stern Alum
As a Stern Part Time Alum, I can relate to the dissatifaction expressed by a lot of the part time student body around double standards in the recruiting program.I believe that this is larg part due to a fundamental shift in the composition of the part time student body . It used to be the case that part time students had 7-8 years of experience, were established in their careers and were going ... ... (MORE)

JJ on March 5, 2008 at 2:22 PM I am a PT Stern student and was also barred from LPDP for missing one session that conflicted with work.Stern staff does an excellent job of being upfront with applicants about their not being included in on-campus recruiting.However, a little extra help wouldn t hurt.As for the opportunity cost argument, that should not be a factor from the school s ... ...

»January 10, 2008: Happy New Year! NYU Stern Part-time MBA Recruiting Practices: "I was denied an opportunity at the one moment in time when it would have made a difference"
Al on January 8, 2008 at 11:33 AM NYU s reasons for excluding part timers are not valid in every case. Some part timers have jobs and sponsors and some don’t. The bursar can easily tell you who does and who doesn’t. You could say that anyone in a technical/creative field doesn’t have the career progression that the program says it looks for. You know, engineers are... ... (MORE)

»December 7, 2007: Stern Part-time MBA: "Career services policy toward part-timers is atrocious and the administration's lack of responsiveness on the issue is appalling. "
John on December 7, 2007 at 2:29 PM I am a current NYU Stern part-time student and can say through experience that the career services policy toward part-timers is atrocious and the administration s lack of responsiveness on the issue is appalling. This is the achille s heel of Stern, an otherwise outstanding program. Part-timers are singled out and ejected from admissions lines to ... ... (MORE)

null646 on December 7, 2007 at 8:25 AMI ve been reading this for a while and I must admit that I have the same issues with Stern as have been posted here. Perhaps I m used to being a second class citizen having worked in financial operations for some time, but I guess I m over it. Stern cannot bite the hand that feeds it and the part time program is very lucrative for them. If they started... ... (MORE)
