[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NYU can be a lot of fun, but possibly for the right kid. The most common complaint i hear is the sense of lack of community especially [b]when the on campus housing runs out. T[/b]hen the long commutes to/from semi-affordable housing. Some intrepid types might not mind that, but may not be tenable for some.

NYU really is best for full pay students. Or someone coming into a trust fund at 22 and can immediately pay off all their loans. If someone really wants to live in a city, go to a much less expensive college then move there when you have a job. But don't go into debt for NYU. [/quote]

This is inaccurate. NYU guarantees housing for four years to all undergrads who enter as freshman. The student must fill out the application by the deadline and pay $1,000 deposit. Students who live on campus generally want to or are in other categories (transfer students, locals who live with family, etc).

And any school is better for students with generous trust funds. Everyone has to figure out their own finances, but NYU is no different in that regard. For my kid, it was cheaper than UMd instate. (NYU provided scholarship money and UMd didn't.) [/quote]
