<p>saxsky: I’ve been at NYU for almost 3 years. I know LSP is not a separate school – it is a subdivision of the Faculty of Arts & Science that acts as a cash cow by allowing more students into the university while keeping CAS’s admissions rate low. SCPS is an amalgam of majors that don’t fit into the other schools. You may have a point about nursing but I doubt its objective admission standards are at the level of CAS, Stern, Tisch. </p>
<p>Please don’t question my credibility, let alone my maturity. I know this school pretty well. You’re not even a student. I’m not actually suggesting SCPS/LSP/Nursing be cut. My point is that NYU is quite bloated, and if it wants to climb in rankings, somethings got to give.</p>
