A transformational experience that has opened up my world to new perspectives, meaningful connections, and opportunities I never could have imagined :)!

My favorite class has been Leadership with Professor Nate Pettit! The interactive simulations were incredibly fun and engaging, but also taught me valuable lessons about myself and how I interact with others. It was such a unique learning experience that pushed me to reflect on my own behaviors and gave me insights I know I'll carry into future workplace situations throughout my career.

The program is a wild ride in the best way possible! My biggest advice is to come in with an open mind, a willingness to learn, and the mindset to make the most of every opportunity. Push yourself to try new things, meet as many people as you can, and say yes to experiences that might be outside your comfort zone. It's only one year, and it goes by incredibly fast, so make the most of it! This is such a unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience, and you want to look back knowing you gave it your all.

Being in the heart of Greenwich Village has made my Stern experience even more special! We're so lucky to be able to spend our breaks catching up with classmates in Washington Square Park or walking over to MacDougal Street for a quick bite or drinks after class. The entire neighborhood truly feels like an extension of our campus, and I love how naturally it becomes part of our everyday student life. Plus, all the student discounts at local spots are definitely an added bonus!
