Hi Everyone!
I was just deferred from Columbia last week, and as of now NYU looks like my next choice, I love the the campus and atmosphere and i need to be in nyc. anyway, I’m having trouble which school to apply to. I want to focus primarily on history, but would love to incorporate some vocal performance and business into my studies. should stick to CAS as a history major and just try to get involved through other classes or should apply to Gallatin and try to make my own concentration?? also, if i realize that i’m not happy wherever i end up how hard is it to transfer between schools? thanks for your help all.

ahh one more question…im not sure my family would qualify for finaid, we are pretty comfortable economically, but 43k a year is not something we can jsut write off…should i apply for finaid anyway? worst case scenario i wont get any right?
