<p>It gives an explanation of how FA at NYU works.</p>
<p>Note however that the typical cut-off for wealthy schools (Columbia, Harvard, etc.) is $150,000/yr income. Anything above that, the ivies (since they do not give merit aid), they expect you to pay full-cost. However, NYU does give scholarship. So I suggest reading the link I provided as it gives my more detailed explanation of how FA will work. Since your family is well above the $150,000/yr bracket, disregard any part of my post that refers to “need”. As you will not be placed into the “need” category.</p>
