Has anyone received any scholarships (especially at Stern) as a GSAP scholar? If another school provided scholarships, is it worth negotiating?

Most schools if they entertain it will negotiate one time. But they need to be comparable schools or more money at the “better” school. A good friend had a lot of money at fuqua and was able to negotiate with Darden but tuck and Kellogg wouldn’t budge

Is negotiating / matching merit scholarships pretty normal?

Hi everyone! In this field, when choosing a masters degree program is it more beneficial to get a degree in Human Resources to further my knowledge in HR (my undergraduate degree is in Economics) , an MBA, or Data Science Degree due to the fact that HR is becoming more data driven as well as get a PHR / SHRM-CP certification?

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through.

Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
