Personally, I’d choose Columbia, mainly for the (esp. in finance) branding. But, interestingly, I’ve read that Stern graduates follow career paths that may be more interesting to you (a lot enter food and entertainment). So make sure you have a strong sense of what you want to do after graduation before you make your decision. Both are great schools and, I’d have to agree with the above poster–you do seem to be looking for some justification for NYU. Perhaps this will be it: it’s a great school! It’s okay to choose NYU over Columbia! But, if you do, make sure it’s for the right reasons.
