ElderCookies - see if you could get another adult to talk to them. What's their objection with your state school? With large public schools, it is what you make of it. Another thing to consider is that NYC is very expensive. NYU doesn't have a campus. If you are used to a small, friendly environment, it may not be easy for you to adjust. I am just not convinced that you would get that much better of education at NYU to worth all of that.

I know it's not always easy to get parents to change their mind, but this is your life now. It is not your parents that would get stuck with 150,000 debt. Start taking an important step of becoming an adult and start taking control of your life.
