Okay, so to be clear, @kayline123 (the OP) has stated that they have been accepted by LIU and that going to college in the City is important to them. Residential colleges within the City are very limited. As stated at the beginning of this thread, LIU’s location makes it a very attractive option at this point in time, assuming they can find their major and it is a financial safety for them. I would add that they should probably try to fit in a visit to a range of NYC colleges, if at all possible before committing.
