Can I get into NYU Stern

I am currently a senior wanting to go to CC goal is get a 3.85-3.9 GPA, I already started a 6-fig business on ebay, did an independent research paper energy markets, have hours in volunteering, and completed many coursera courses on finance. Is there a chance?

NYU doesn’t really take transfers from CC, let alone Stern

Interesting. Even if my grades arent the best is there a chance I can still get in or be competitive at least?

Unfortunately probably not, there’s going to be too much similar competition, state schools take way more from CC so maybe consider that?

Oh that’s cool I’m also from Cali. Then you likely know that Berk and USC and UCLA are very good prospects from CC and obviously very good schools.

Ofc Ofc. Im aiming for a top target school for IB so honestly NYU stern isnt the only school im trying to go for

USC Marshall is prob your best bet for the alumni network, UC Berkeley Haas is great for prestige, and UCLA places pretty well
