Student Perspectives

"The SCC allowed me to leverage my past work experience and Stern coursework to simultaneously stay connected to the New York community and gain valuable insights on the management consulting field. My team worked with the Clinton Foundation to develop a business skills curriculum for restaurant owners in the rapidly changing Harlem market. My Stern education helped me connect what I was learning in the classroom to real-world entrepreneurship, and a close working relationship with our Booz & Co. mentors gave me valuable context that set me up for success in my summer internship."

"I thoroughly enjoyed my Stern Consulting Corps experience with Year Up. The project was the perfect opportunity to immediately apply what I learned in my first year at Stern to a professional role. My teammate and I performed a feasibility analysis that evaluated a potential expansion into neighboring Newark and was used as a critical input into Year Up's business development activities. Additionally, our main contact at Year Up and our SCC mentor-- both MBA graduates-- provided insightful advice for both the classroom and our future careers. Best of all, I was able to use my Stern education to give back to the NYC community."
