All the teachers are very knowledgeable and open to working with students outside of class. The classes are hard and demand a lot of work as well as a lot of reading. Considering this I have learned in 1 semester than I've learned in a whole year of high school.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
It's a great college and being in New York City provides many unique opportunities. There are almost no frat parties or sports events so weekends usually consist of going to apartment parties, concerts and bars/clubs or doing anything else imaginable in the city. Only downside is you should expect to spend money.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Everything here is top notch though for 60,000 a year they could provide a few more services. The mandatory meal plan freshman year is too costly for a very strict meal plan and the housing is a bit pricey but so is everything around it.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
If you consider a good college experience to be frat parties, tail-gating sporting events and bro-culture then this is not the place for you. NYU is a college in and of the city so expect to have to make your own fun. You have the whole city to explore, use it.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
This is hipsters paradise, everything is about fashion, music and taste here. If you are a bro you will feel out of place due to the striking lack of bros. It's also great for people who like to be independent.
