New York University Top Questions

that my expectations were completely different

How expensive and financially draining it would be to come here.

I wish I had known which dorms were the best ones. Seriously, the difference between the best and the worst dorms are gargantuan.

I just wish I wasn't the only one from my home to go to school here. I didn't know anybody and it was a little rough to get used to school in the first couple of months.

Before coming to NYU I wish I had known what I wanted to study in relation to what I wanted to do after graduation. The resorces for networking at NYU are overwhelmingly helpfull to postgraduation job searching and if I had realized that I liked environmental studies, I could have forcused my time on other projects with the sustainability department to increase my knowledge of that field. Instead I spent most of my time working in finance, which is helpful but I would rather be in the environmental field.

I can't think of anything. I did a lot of research into this school before attending because I was a transfer student.

New York University as a whole is overwhelmingly bureaucratic. The financial aid office is not helpful, the housing office is unreceptive, and the role of students in university affairs is mostly a facade.

Tough competition

I wish I had known that it was okay to be myself so I could start being myself earlier than I did.
