I went to Poly years ago. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Professors were terrible. A lot of classes were taught by TAs who barely spoke English. Facilities were awful. Social life nonexistent. Everyone commuted so no college experience at all. Alumni organization nonexistent. No one comes to reunions or cares. My friend went few years back and there were 2 people that showed up from our year. The only good thing it had was their job placement program. It was much better then NYUs. It makes me wonder, now that they’ll be part of NYU how will it be. I realize that I went to Poly many years ago, but my cousin just graduated this year and he told me that besides the fact that NYU is trying to modernize the ancient buildings the Proffessors are still the same. He wishes he didn’t take out all the loans and went to CUNY instead.
