It's probably best known for it's campus. The wide New York City area is open to many job opportunities, meal varieties, shopping experiences, and people networking. While most traditional colleges have a campus with rolling green hills, NYU has a campus of growing skyscrapers and rolling taxi cabs. Even so, the student community manages to get together and be close by hosting and participating in student activities and talking about events that happen around the city. It is very diverse and open to making discoveries.

Being in and of the city. Also, each program is so unique and tailor fot for its students.

The arts. At least that's what I'm most proud of my school for. It's home to such a diverse group of artistic minds, a thinking tank for new ideas and forms. I've never been more inspired than when woring on my writing after having deep conversations with friends or analyzing pieces in a class discussion. The city itself if also a huge breeding ground for new ideas, as I'm always immersed in a sea of people that range from all different walks of life. It's energizing.

New York University is best known for the diversity it houses and the Film and Television program in the Tisch School of the Arts offered as well as the Stern School of Business. This institution is also known for the career oriented connections developed while in school in every department from the arts to sociology to business.
Tristan
Probably most known for being very prestigious, yet very expensive.
Sasha
NYU is best known for two of their schools-Stern and Tisch. Both are very competitive, but in different ways. The Tisch School of Arts focuses on theater and other related majors, while Stern focuses strictly on business related majors. NYU is also known for its largeness. This is not a campus-like school. In fact, our campus is all over the city; everything is scattered so if you are looking for a campus-like school, this should not be your option.
Camille
My school is best known for allowing students to remain indivuals amongst a diverse population of students while acquiring an education in the real world that prepares them for the real world. My school is known for it's liberal, open-minded stance, and is also home to students from every walk of life, from every background and from all different parts of the world. NYU is also known as "in and of the city", meaning that New York City is meant to inspire, influence and challenge the students as they pursue a college degree.
Kristen
My school is best known for its location -- New York City. It provides students with a number of great job, internship, and volunteer opportunities, as well as a vibrant urban atmosphere. Although there is no enclosed campus, students often look at Washington Square as the epicenter of the university, which is where many of the classroom buildings, dorms, and cafeterias are. However, students are encouraged to use and explore all five boroughs of the city and learn beyond the classroom walls. The city provides a diverse backdrop for the school and allows students to take advantage of the cultural gems.
Lindsey
I would have to say it's best know for its name and the fact that it is a major university in New York.
