CHANGE COMES TO NYU STERN
In addition to a short-term goals essay and the perennial favorite “Pick Six” introductory prompt, NYU Stern has added a new essay question that addresses the “reactive changes” we have all experienced as a result of the global pandemic. Stern is asking applicants to reflect and identify proactive ways you would want to impact positive changes in business, industries and societies throughout your life/career— think long-term goals. Ideally, applicants can dovetail prior academic and/or to-date professional/volunteer experiences to illustrate a realistic career path and how NYU can help you achieve your goals, but even if you are transitioning careers, there remains ample opportunity to be a thought leader addressing this “change”.
