New York University Top Questions

Describe your favorite campus traditions.

NYU almost can't be described as one entity. We have schools devoted to art, business, social work, etc. We have students who fit almost every point along any spectrum. As a whole, though, I think NYU is best known for as a place of privilege and prowess, opinions and activism, and expansion and 'improvement' (depending on how you look at it). Though, whether you hate it or love it, I think everyone agrees that NYU is a completely unique undergraduate experience in terms of locale and social environment. We also tend to attract the token former child actor!

It is known for being the '#1 Dream School'.

Manhattan.

My school is probably best known as a fantastic city school with strong programs for every single major - from Business to Arts. It is known as being the top "dream school" in the country - and it definitely deserves the name. It's like a dream come true.

Because I go to NYU's film school, I'm going to go ahead and say their film school, haha. The Tisch School of the Arts has been cranking out successful members of the industry year after year, with no loss in momentum in my opinion. You have the flexibility to choose your specialty, so between my core group of friends, we are each experts in particular fields, and it's nice to know that there are people you know that are good in every aspect of production.
