<p>This link shows how NYU compares to “similar” schools. It’s interesting both in the data and in the schools the website deems comparable (based on the data).</p>

<p>6 year graduation rates??? Yikes. there is no way I could afford 6 years of NYU, especially since govt loans and scholarships would be gone after 4 years.</p>

<p>what’s the methodology for what schools are similar?</p>

<p>It’s interesting to click on 4-year, 5-year, and 6-year graduation rates. NYU’s don’t change much but some change a lot. I did 5 1/2 years at Berkeley but that was when it only cost $750 year in-state – state schools are probably more likely to have those people who take their time.</p>

<p>As for methodology, if you look at the main screen, I guess that’s it: scores, size, cost…</p>
