<p>Thawowtso, you would be foolish to decide which college to go to or not go to based on a few threads on cc. My daughter is a freshman. She has 4 other roommates, all from different parts of the country, all with different majors (one in Stern) and none of them knew one person when they got there 4 weeks ago. They have become fast friends and have made MANY other friends as well.
If you go to Nyu , I would recommend living in one of the classic dorm style dorms, rather than apartment style. And I would suggest having roommates and joining clubs, etc. if you make an effort to be social I’m sure you will have no problem.
Keep in mind when reading cc, that typically the happy, social students are not sitting around on the computer writing to strangers on cc. They have better things to do. Good luck!</p>
