<p>Because NYU isn’t a real rah-rah school with lots of school spirit, we are wondering whether the alumni base is strong in terms of connections for students after they graduate. Are NYU graduates helpful to students when it comes time to find jobs?</p>
<p>If you are staying in New York then NYU probably has one of the strongest alumni base comparable to Columbia.</p>
<p>What about beyond NYC?</p>
<p>Well, it’s incredibly large in terms of student body, celebrity factor, and global presence, so you’re more likely to meet someone who either went to, sent family to, or loves NYU than perhaps any other school. That being said, it won’t be as emphatic a response as say, going to Duke and meeting another Dukie who’ll give their left arm for you because school spirit runs that deep.</p>
<p>More widespread, but not as intense.</p>
