Do you guys think NYU is worth the debt?

<p>i was totally in the same position, and after a long talk with my family, i think i’m going to go ahead and pick NYU…in the long run, as horrible as this sounds…employers are going to judge you based on your school…NYU is 32 in the country and Bing is 80 for national universities…and NYU will have a plethora of job opportunities for you in the long run since you’re in NYC. Binghamton has internships and stuff, and many in NYC, but i’d think it’d be easier to do well at NYU (you can do well anywhere…), go to grad school, and hopefully you’ll have a nice job to pay off the loans in the long run. If you want to go into teaching, or a job that your salary will never exceed the amount you owe in loans, i’d suggest Binghamton. Academically, they’re pretty much on par, except i felt the professors were better at NYU, and the only difference your paying for is the name. the lack of campus at NYU didnt bother me because the campus at Bing is nothing to cheer about either. you have to think about it as you education is a major investment for the future…so it all depends on your aspirations</p>
