okay as for what you study:

Tisch, obviously, you can study acting, dancing, film/tv, dramatic writing, photography, recorded music, cinema studies (all undergrad)

Stern is for business, I’m sure we all know this, too =P

CAS is for all the liberal arts things like history, math, languages, etc.

Social Work offers one major, and naturally, that’s Social Work

Steinhardt…hmm, not so clear on this one but I know they have education-related majors, and studio art, and music, and communications

Gallatin - this is where you make your own major. Like if you wanted to major in entertainment business, that’s not offered anywhere at NYU, so you’d meet with an advisor and make your own courseload, which would most likely involve some Stern classes and some Tisch

Tisch is hard to get into cuz of selectivity and auditions/portfolios and such. Stern is hard to get into cuz they don’t take as many, and lots of people want to business. CAS is hard to get into I believe purely because so ridiculously many people apply. I don’t really know about Gallatin. Social Work and Steinhardt are the easiest to get into cuz not so many people apply there (I think this is because these are majors that won’t really pay as much as, say, financing or economics, so most people don’t want to spend the $45K a year to go there. Although I hear most of the programs are top-notch)

hope that helps?
