Stern transfer acceptance rate?

I'm currently a freshman at another university and am thinking about transferring to NYU Stern. I was wondering if anyone has a ballpark of the transfer acceptance rate into Stern? Is it more competitive than applying out of high school?

Transferring to NYU Stern can be more competitive than applying as a high school senior. While NYU as a whole has a transfer acceptance rate around 20-30%, the School of Business (Stern) is known to be more selective. Although there is no exact number provided by the school, transfer acceptance rates into Stern are likely to be lower than the overall NYU transfer acceptance rate.

Transferring into a highly competitive business school like Stern can be challenging, but it's not impossible if you have a strong application. To enhance your chances of acceptance, it's important to maintain a high GPA at your current university, build a compelling case for wanting to transfer to Stern specifically, and articulate your future goals and how Stern's programs can help you reach them.

In addition to strong academic performance, showcasing extracurricular involvement related to business or leadership will also be valuable. If you can demonstrate your achievements and commitment to your field, Stern may view you as a strong candidate despite the competitive admissions process.

It's essential to research the transfer requirements and deadlines for Stern, as well as connect with the admissions office to address any questions or concerns you may have. This will help ensure a smooth and well-informed transfer application process. Good luck!
