Do you have offers from both places, or is this hypothetical? The “If” makes me think that this is hypothetical. If so, come back when you have offers. I’m guessing you qualify for the Emirati Scholarship, but you still have to be admitted to NYU. There are only 10 of those Global Scholarships. Even exceptional students can’t take it for granted that they will get one.
you are unlikely to be successful, whether you choose Sewanee or NYUAD. Freshly minted college grads are not in short supply, and you would need an employer willing to spend the time and money to make the case that you are the only person qualified to do the job.
