<p>NYU grad alum and Oberlin undergrad alum - these two are night and day. If you like small classes with profs that invite you to their house for dinner, Oberlin. My experience with NYU was limited prof contact, office hours only, no personal attn (at all) - my profs (business school) were off consulting after class, afterall they were right in nyc. Also, at Oberlin, when there wasn’t a course in something I was interested in, I did a private reading with a prof. and created a syllabus. That was easily do-able.</p>
