<p>@sidsquid Basically what sittle said. Here’s some more information for you:</p>

<li>Don’t forget that you’re in New York City! It’s so easy to get anywhere in Manhattan - just jump on the subway. That’s one of my favorite parts about NYU. At other schools, students are often limited to their campus or need to take a scheduled bus to go somewhere. There are subway stations nearing Washington Square, on 8th St, and on 14th St (Union Square) that make Manhattan so accessible. And they come and go ever few minutes! NYU sends out notices through email (I think it’s only to film majors, though, but you can like the Kanbar Film Series on Facebook) about premieres happening in NYC. I know people who went to see Life of Pi and saw the guy who played Pi and Ang Lee. And also there was the On the Road screening, where the director, Kristen Stewart, Kirsten Dunst, and the two main guys (I don’t know their names) were there. USC is known for their connections and strong alumni network, but NYU is in NYC, a city where something is always happening. There’s also a ton of free concerts. The Script, Ed Sheeran, Cher Lloyd, and One Direction are just a few names I’ve heard people see for free.</li>

<p>Tisch film students intern their junior or senior year. I don’t know much about it since I’m a freshman, but there is an office and an internship coordinator you could talk to if you want to find out more! I am considering just finding a job next semester, hopefully working at an NYU office or something.</p>
<p>It is around 250. And I don’t know the admission rate, sorry. I’ve heard a wide range of numbers - from 30% (which I don’t really believe) to 4% (which I don’t believe either). NYU’s film program is one of the top, and I’ve heard USC’s rate is about 4%, if that gives you some perspective.</p>
