Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “Looking back, I wish I had taken one of Stern’s Doing Business In… courses abroad. I traveled a lot during business school and have incredible memories, but I didn’t fully take advantage of this one unique opportunity Stern offers. There’s something different about traveling with a large group of classmates, learning about international business during the day, and exploring a new city together at night. That kind of shared experience is hard to recreate later in life. When I saw friends on safari in Cape Town or wandering through Marrakech together, it wasn’t regret so much as a realization: this was a special window. Business school gives you the chance to experience the world alongside people who are all in the same season of life. If I could go back, I would make time to say yes to that, too.”
