It depends on how much money and if all the programs cost the same.

It depends on if the op is talking about master or PhDs though. I still think he has a good chance nevertheless.

I have a friend who lives close to campus with a studio. It's not too bad but you can probably get a nicer place with the same price.

Best of luck!!!!!!! Don't let your pass define your future!!!!!

I will personally pick IU I just heard nothing except great things about that school.

You just have to ask yourself if you can pay off the debt with your degree. It always comes down to your choice. I honestly think Cornell is a great school but UM and UIUC are definitely up there with it. (I battled with the whole prestige and financial thing myself) I chose 40% off tuition for NYU over no money from Northwestern. I honestly think either way you will love the school you pick. We are all just getting caught up with the whole prestige and I got in to that school so I should go there.

who excited???? i'm super psyched!

sorry i meant like one person per room with 4 other people in a house

It takes so long to get back to Capitol Hill if there's traffic. Tbh again green lake is such a nice area. I spent like 500$ a month including everything in a room with 4 people. (It is a huge house). It is super close to bus stop and the beautiful green lake park.

. Green lake area is also very nice!!,

I really wanna say yes but the gap between the tuition is so huge that I will have the say no :/ considering you are an international student and you can't take out federal loans and the interest rates are ridiculous for private loans. PS: it never hurts to ask again though.

are you considering taking out private loans?

May I ask if anyone knows the acceptance rate and the median for sat and gre for the extension school? Thanks !

I will say upenn since the master program seems to meet your needs more and you can always apply phd somewhere else. Except if getting into the duke program guarantees you a spot in the phd program but even that you are not even sure if you want a phd.

When did you submit your fafsa?

Thank you so much for all the information and best of luck to you!!!!!

Do you have any opinions on the brooklyner? It is in Brooklyn heights. Do you think it is a viable commute for a NYU student. Do you think it is a safe area? Do you have other suggestion for 2000 studio (nice apartment complex with gym and pool, washer and dryer in the house)?

Thank you so much. Btw do you know where you are going for your program? I'm from Seattle

I'm dealing with the same exact problem

Thanks so much for the information. I did an estimate of how much debt I will have after the two programs (factoring in everything), and I will end up 30k more in debt if I go to NU. That's due to NYU program being cheaper and obviously the scholarship. I really like the NU program but I just don't know if it is viable to pick it, especially counselors don't make a lot of $ :/ Do you guys think the NYU name carries any weight outside of the states at all? I was born in Seattle but grew up in HK, and I want to keep my option open just in case if I want to go back to HK for work.

I'm looking at Brooklyn Heights and Carnegie Hill :3

like 4 weeks before the date I wanna move in?

Anyone has tips on apartment hunting??. I'm looking for a studio around 2000 per month. Please pm me if you have any information. Thanks!

They sent me an email! But I'm in steinhardt so I'm sure you will get yours soon!! Anyone has tips on apartment hunting??.??

I'm super torn now :/. Apartments in NYC are around 2300+ if I don't wanna live in a super sketchy place. Ahh! Thanks anyways I will probably hear back next week. If I don't get into the program after the first wave, I will probably gonna go to NYU since I can't risk not going to school this year.
