<p>I would personally recommend taking the subway from JFK to NYU if you are transporting a minimal amount of luggage. You can use the MTA Trip Planner ( <a href=“http://tripplanner.mta.info%5B/url%5D”>http://tripplanner.mta.info</a> ) or HopStop ( <a href=“http://www.hopstop.com%5B/url%5D”>http://www.hopstop.com</a> ) to assist you in planning your trip.</p>
