Your life will be entirely different at NYU or the other schools because of the people you are going to meet. Unless your loans will be very small, you will probably not have loans just for a few years. They have much better reputations and will have many more opportunities and your life will be better. My feeling also is you should go where you feel you would be most successful and happiest. The only question is if you don’t have a clue what you are going to do after you graduate because you will have those loans. If you will have the ability to pay them off in a sensible manner, go to those schools. If not, I would come up with one and still not go to Stony Brook. If your rationale for going to this school is to save money, you will not be happy. I have a feeling the only SUNY school that makes sense to attend based off that premise is Binghamton. It’s a top school with a great environment and is very cheap.

NYU by the way is a particular school because of it’s student population and location. There is also no campus. Washington Square serves as de facto campus, but it’s not the same. If you want a campus, go away. NYU is a fine school; it’s just also a unique environment.
