I’m the first PP and I’d agree that NYU Stern is a little better for finance, consulting and other selective fields.

Definitely Stern these days for finance, consulting etc.

Students at Columbia will be nicer though. It's a very low bar, but still.

If he knows he wants business, that is one thing.

I am not a recruiter, but generally (outside of specific fields I defer to others) if I saw Columbia or NYU, I'd be more impressed by Columbia.

Assuming that this is regarding undergraduate--not MBA--school, NYU Stern is better for one seeking a career in finance, consulting, or just about any other business specialty.

This is so surprising to me. Back in the day, the elite ws firms preferred ivy to anyone else.

How did nyu pull this off? I am genuinely curious. Are they providing a more useful, relevant, or rigorous education? Do they provide better networking events? What have they done?

Here is another example where per capita data is semi-worthless. Michigan is #4 on this list but virtually all of its students chosen come from the Ross School of Business. Ross has 1400 undergraduates. Michigan, as a whole has over 32K.

NYU itself has risen a lot (#25 vs #18 Columbia), but NYU Stern has been very strong in the industry.
One of the top programs.
