Is a BFA degree from NYU worth $160,000 in debt?

Absolutely not, especially if you’re talking about the student taking on that debt (and I can’t imagine how a student could do that alone). If you are unable to fund his college for a substantial amount of that remaining amount, he should choose the school where the least amount of debt will be taken on. In this profession, one that will almost certainly mean long periods of unemployment, carrying any kind of substantial debt load will affect his ability to book work.
