Hello folks,

I know that most people think of their school as the best, but nothing really compares to NYU Stern. Everyone speaks about Stern being great because of its "strategic location" in the heart of NYC. (Which, to be honest, is pretty amazing.) However, this school is just full of programs and opportunities that really make your college experience great. Example: Prior to coming to Stern, I had only traveled to Canada (which really doesn't count if you ask me) and Haiti. Since Stern, I've studied abroad in Italy where I took the opportunity to backpack throughout Europe, then I went to China through the Stern International Studies Program, next I volunteered in Peru though Stern International Volunteers and now I'm getting ready to head to India during the winter break though the India Global Studies Program. Where else do you hear about students traveling the world to compare class theory to on-the-ground practices?
My mother is getting tried of not seeing me during vacations and my girlfriend is convinced that I just want to leave her, but how do pass up opportunities like these?
I just wish I had been logging frequent flyer miles, do you think I can get those past miles logged now?

But seriously, the academics and job placement is what makes students come but the programs and activities are what make us stay.

Much love,
