Excerpt from Poets & Quants -- "One of the reasons why I chose NYU Stern was their global learning opportunities, particularly its dual-MBA program with HEC Paris. You spend one year in New York City and the second year in Paris. However, one year away from my classmates seemed too much for my goals, so Stern’s semester-long exchange program was a great alternative for me."

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "After three years living in Japan, I was excited to move back to the US to get an MBA from a top-tier business school. However, I needed an environment that would be academically rigorous and that prioritized relationship building and empathy as part of that experience. Given Stern’s focus on IQ+EQ (Intelligence Quotient + Emotional Quotient), it felt like the right mix of academic rigor and values in which I could thrive as a student and a member of a community."
