Opinions on Business Universities in NYC?

Hey guys, I'm really interested in studying business and I'm looking at New York City as my top location. Could anyone recommend any business-focused universities that have a notable presence in the city? I'm open to learn about personal experiences, any information you found valuable in your own research or advice on factors to consider other than location. Thanks!

New York City has a solid collection of universities that boast strong business programs. One of the most prominent institutions is the Stern School of Business at New York University (NYU Stern). Known for its global business programs and proximity to Wall Street, NYU Stern allows students to have hands-on experiences and numerous networking opportunities in the business world.

Columbia University is another excellent choice, especially if you're interested in finance. Its location in Manhattan provides students with countless opportunities for internships and networking. Columbia has a top-ranked MBA program and, while it doesn't have a traditional undergraduate business degree, it does offer an undergraduate concentration in business management which is quite rigorous.

Apart from these, Baruch College, part of the City University of New York, has a well-regarded Zicklin School of Business. Being a public university, Baruch tends to be more affordable, making it a solid option if you're budget-conscious.

Fordham University's Gabelli School of Business is another good choice offering solid undergraduate business programs and is nearby major business hubs.

While evaluating these universities, some factors you might want to consider are class size, internship opportunities, access to networking, specializations within the business program, faculty reputation, tuition cost, and graduate success rates. Be sure to research each university's unique methods of teaching business concepts and their relevance to your personal and career goals. I hope this helps!
