This would be a good question to ask during one of the live info sessions. It's a question ppl have asked in the past - the info wasn't relevant to me at the time so I unfortunately can't recall it.

Unlikely.

“To be considered for a particular August round, your application must be completed by 11:59pm Eastern Time on the deadline date for the round in which you apply. Your letter of recommendation and application fee must be submitted by the deadline for your application to be considered complete.

If your application is not completed by the deadline for the current round, it will be rolled into the next available application round in the current cycle for consideration.”

does anyone have any stories of successful extensions….?

They did end up considering the app for Round 2 so it looks like there are some extensions

Hello!! I’m starting a new job on February 1st and will also be going through the remote onboarding. I finally got the official “pass” from my background check yesterday. My biggest issue was just dealing with the company giving the check. They kept asking for the same info several times which was frustrating. So glad that process is over!!

Enrolled in Stern for a few weeks.
The number of the alumni and current students that go to top consulting firms FT& summer intern are countless even for a small class size.
Stern is way more than a finance school. Given its location, do you want to spend your 2 years in a rural area or heart of Manhattan? Location is almost everything for business school. (I have a friend in Cornell that frequently travels about 5 hours to NYC for events.)
