What kind of person should attend New York University?

Punasia

Someone who is interested in being apart of community with much variety and many different cultures should attend this school.

Jori

Someone who is not interested in a traditional college experience. If you want to grow up faster than your friends attending state schools, explore and take advantage of one of the greatest cities in the world, and forge your own path, this is the school for you.

Gina

Because of it's size and location, New York University is a very liberal school with a very diverse and large group of students. While being in the city offers many opportunities, it is easy to fall through the cracks here. NYU is best suited for open-minded and driven individuals who do not mind being out of their comfort zone- it does come with its benefits, such as pre-exposure to the post-grad life and career experience through a plethora of internships.

Brenda

A person who can endure stress and hardwork, as well as is open to people who might be different from him.

Kimberly

independent, smart, creative-types, not into typical college experiences (sports, Greek life, etc.)

Delilah

New York University has a place for everyone. No matter ypur race, color, ethnicity, religion, sexual preference or vibe, New York university has a place for you.

Maria

One of the things I love about my school is the variety of people that attend it. However, no matter how much we all differ from one another there are a few factors that exist in all of us. Ambition is the leading characteristic; we all want to go over and beyond our expectations to stand out and suceed. Consistency is the next; NYU students don't give up, they follow through with everything asked of them. The characteristic I love the most is that everybody is unique and not afraid to show their true colors.

Summer

The type of person who would attend NYU is someone who wants to learn in a multi-cultural environment in a big city setting. It is someone who appreciates and enjoys the mess, noise and close-quarters of a big city, who enjoys amenities such as mom&pop stores, crowded city streets, and non-stop life; someone who manages sensory overload well and is not overwhelmed by too many opportunities. The person who should attend NYU has a healthy sense of who they are; is fun yet disciplined, and wants to enhance their own world-view through those of others.

Kevin

Someone who isn't looking for a party school or a social school, but rather a school with a focus on hard work and studying, located in the heart of New York City.

Emily

Someone liberal and artistic, unless you're coming for the business school, in which case you should still be liberal and open-minded, as a lot of people who come here ARE artistic and liberal.
