To all of you who responded NYU: why do you think it is overrated? I’m genuinely curious, and no one has given and reasons.

I think NYU is underrated, actually. It’s a far better university than it was 30 years ago, able to attract outstanding faculty. Everyone talks about Tisch and Stern, but the humanities there are also excellent. Less prestige than Columbia, of course, but recruiters go to both schools and post-college placements are impressive. The NYC experience isn’t for everyone, but downtown is way more fun than uptown, fwiw.

This, 1000%. I posted in a different thread about how NYU was by far the hardest academics I experienced compared to the other (top 15) schools I attended for post-grad studies. Personally, I don't think it was the best fit for me due to it being so very urban, but I honestly don't feel like you can get better (maybe some are just as good) undergraduate learning anywhere in this country.
