Fist and Foremost the Majority of the negative comments on here are from people who got REJECTED from nyu and decided to take their anger out on here.

I will give you guys some pros and cons of nyu.

Pros

  • Excellent Education
  • Amazing location (greenwich village is amazing)
  • DIverse student body, people from around the world come here.
  • Great ranking and name recognition
  • Cons:

  • Very expensive. With all expenses nyu will cost $60,000/ year.
  • Arrogant People (You will find them at any top college)
  • No campus ( basically new york city is your campus)
  • Other things to Note

  • You have to stick yourself out their and be social. Don't be reserved or else it's hard to meet people.
  • The city is not for everyone. A bunch of people transfer because they don't get the real college experience. NYU is not known for sports and all that.
  • More women than men. And 30% of the males are Gay. (this can be a good thing for straight males)
  • NYU prepares you for real life.
  • Overall

    If you are a independent, social, hard working individual then by all means this is the school for you.

    If you are a bit on the shy side and reserved, its gonna tend to be hard making friends so you might not like nyu.
