The city truly has its own pulse – and a sense of excitement that is hard to beat. In addition, NYU Stern's location in the heart of Manhattan provides students with unparalleled access to experiential learning and career opportunities. In my opinion, no other business school offers such a rich academic and professional landscape for entertainment and media. It was the perfect place for me to enhance my skills, establish connections, and, ultimately, make the most of the opportunities that came my way."
