Does NYU give money? OR is it a myth

dream school!

<p>why is it your dream school just wondering? i don’t understand why anyone even likes that uni - it has no campus, it’s so spread out, all of the students have rich parents paying the kid through school and its just horrible overall. Rochester is where it’s at</p>

<p>Immediately stop thinking/saying/praying “dream school”! It has been the downfall of many NYU hopefuls…they rarely get an award, it seems, that allows them to attend without big parent help or big loans. Big awards can happen, most of them that I’ve heard of were to very high stat/very low EFC kids, who also happen to live in NY and get state aid.</p>

<p>A tiny handful a students get big awards each year. Hundreds and hundreds more get admitted with completely impossible financial aid packages. Don’t set you heart on NYU unless you like being heartbroken.</p>

<p>NYU doesn’t deserve to be anyone’s dream school - unless you’re affluent and your parents can pay full freight.</p>

<p>It is a poor excuse of a top school that has a ranked business school that hasn’t figured out how to advise its own university how to better meet its lower income students’ needs. </p>

<p>Now, I’ll tell you how I really feel about NYU ;)</p>
