So I have a very difficult decision to make but one that I am extremely grateful and happy to make. NYU full tution+ enough money from fafsa and tap to rent a nice car to commute to campus (I live in Brooklyn) OR duke at 25k a year? Besides Duke at 25k a year I also have Cornell at 17k and Northwestern at 12k. I want to major in Physics (specifically astrophysics but no schools seem to have that since its very particular). Anyway my question is this: how is the scholars program at NYU? How is NYU physics? I want to go to med school after.

My parents are not helping me pay for college so basically I will take loans for undergrad and med school but I want to do surgery so hopefully paying back those loans won’t be too much of a burden.

Please let me know your thoughts on this guys and I will definitely be seeing some of you on Scholars Weekend!
