Faculty and location is the main reason. The research in my field from this college made me choose this college. Also, NYC is the financial hub of the world, and studying in a college with such a great alumni network will definitely help me in my professional career.

It is an amazing experience. The course curriculum is based on the latest updates in the industry and includes a lot of guest lectures from industry experts. Faculties are experienced and have immense research knowledge in the field they are teaching.
