[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The list reflects the size and scope of NYU. It is many things to many people. Two 4-bedroom homes sitting side by side in a subdivision leaves little to the imagination when valuing real estate. But some custom houses on large but oddly shaped lots are tough to “comp” as there is nothing else quite like it. So the comparable properties are a fuzzy guide, not a benchmark. It’s much easier to identify a peer when the details are succinct. That’s how we get silly acronyms like SWAT. NYU is tough to define. The list actually makes sense to me, when broken down by department. [/quote] This is why Cal and UCLA are good peers, along with private USC. Diverse, academically rich, urban, although Cal is probably closest (there is only one NYC). A big difference is that UCs have more STEM kids. My guess is that a fair number of CA UMC applicants to Cal and UCLA also apply to NYU.[/quote]
