Pace vs NYU

Ok this is weird but I am basically in the same situation as @cgmt in terms of choosing between Pace and NYU. I have been accepted into and love both but I can’t decide. I am very interested in a breadth of things including acting and directing. This is a general post to anyone with input on which to choose but also a specific question to @cgmt. What did you decide to do and are you happy with your decision? Thank you!

Congrats! Two amazing acceptances! If they are the same price then go with what feels better to you.

It’s May 6. Do these colleges not have the May 1 deadline for choosing?

What is the COA for each program ?

Are both programs affordable for you without taking out any student loans or other debt ?

My next door neighbor had the same choice for theater, chose Pace due to cost (I think it was a big difference). She’s 35 and a working actor.
