<p>I live in the city, and have wanted to go to NYU my whole life, I’m going to apply early but i’m not sure which school, CAS has the major i want but i’m considering applying to the school of education because it’s easier to get into, and majoring in communications wouldn’t be a big deal for me since I want to be a journalist?</p>
