<p>@imnotanoob There’s a pretty wide variety in terms of the definition of “party.” One of the main advantages of being in the city is that you are not limited to dorm or frat parties (though there are quite a few of those as well if that’s your thing!!). A lot of students also choose to go out to bars or clubs on the weekend. And of course for those of you who aren’t into drinking/partying, there are countless other things to do on any given night in NYC which of course I can’t partake in right now because I have the flu but heyo that means I get to answer all of you lovely people’s questions instead :~)</p>
<p>What do Stern/CAS/etc students think about Poly students? Do they consider them “real” NYU students?</p>
<p>I consider them real NYU students. That being said, I don’t actually know any Poly students. Their campus is still in Brooklyn and since I’m in LS we have no classes in common. I suppose that socially Poly is still a bit separate from the rest of NYU, but since the official merger was pretty recent that might change for the better soon.</p>
<p>Hey, I really want to know more about the Global Liberal Studies program. (I can rarely see much information about it. )</p>
<p>I know that students from LSP will get back to CAS after two years, but what about GLS? I want to study economics and psychology, so staying at GLS for 4 years may not be a good choice for me.</p>
<p>If you want to study those to things, GLS may not be the best program for you. GLS lasts four years, and the staple of that particular program is that you have to spend your entire junior year abroad. But if you go to CAS for economics and psychology, you would still be able to study abroad junior year or any other time you want.
Here is the GLS website: <a href=“http://gls.nyu.edu/page/home”>http://gls.nyu.edu/page/home</a></p>
<p>Hi, I had a question about financial aid. I received a CAS scholarship + Jay Stein scholarship + a Pell Grant, and this totals out to a very hefty amount of money. I was wondering if these scholarships are for all four years, or for only my freshman year? If they’re for all four years, then I’m definitely attending NYU, so I was really hoping for some clarification on this. Thank you very much!</p>
<p>Do you know anything about the federal work study process? It was listed on my award for 3k and id like to utilize it. How would i go about getting a job? </p>
<p>Can you please chance me?</p>
<p>@crimical I’m not sure, but I think that it should carry through all four years. I recommend calling NYU on Monday to make sure you understand everything that the scholarships entail, though, since sometimes people have their FA revised unexpectedly. Congratulations!! :D</p>
<p>@sloth83: This is what the NYU website has to say about work study:
"Most financial aid award packages include Work-Study. This means that students are eligible to participate in the Federal Work-Study Program, and may earn up to the amount recommended in their financial aid award package. Federal Work-Study jobs, generally averaging from 15 to 20 hours per week, are secured through The Wasserman Center for Career Development. Positions in various on-campus departments and organizations are readily available (though not guaranteed).
Important Notice: Work-Study earnings are not credited toward your Bursar bill but are paid directly to the student on a bi-weekly basis. Money earned from employment is normally used for books, transportation, and personal expenses.</p>
<p>Work-Study is not available at all Study Away locations.</p>
<p>Students are not required to meet their earnings expectation through the Federal Work-Study Program, and may choose not to accept Federal Work-Study and seek instead employment in an on-campus or off-campus job in which wages are paid entirely by the employer’s budget.</p>
<p>New York University provides a wide range of employment opportunities for students, and all are encouraged to take advantage of the placement services (including summer jobs) offered by The Wasserman Center for Career Development, located at 133 East 13th Street. Students may use the center immediately upon payment of their tuition deposit."</p>
<p>I don’t really know anything beyond that, sorry!! But congratulations!! :D</p>
<p>@Katiefl13 Judging from your thread, it seems that you have placed each school you want to apply to in its proper category. Just some advice–focus on writing essays and maintaining good grades instead of worrying about your chances. You pretty much know what they are, so dedicate your college time to applying instead of worrying or chancing! 
best of luck to you!!</p>
<p>Thank you so much for responding!!</p>
<p>Hi! Have you heard anything about Silver School of Social Work? That’s the school I got into (: Thank you</p>
<p>@babyscallop Congratulations!! I don’t know much specifics about that school. Anything in particular you want to know?</p>
<p>so i got the CAS scholarship for about 37k a year and I was wondering if that means i got into honors? thanks</p>
<p>@heycall123 I don’t think so–I feel like if you were accepted into an honors program, it would be stated explicitly along with your scholarship. You should call NYU on Monday and find out exactly what’s going on!
Here is the website about CAS honors programs: <a href=“http://cas.nyu.edu/page/honorsprograms”>http://cas.nyu.edu/page/honorsprograms</a>
Congratulations on your acceptance and scholarship.</p>
<p>They would indeed explicitly state that you were being invited to join the Presidential Honors Scholars (for CAS), although it’s possible that invitations for that haven’t been sent out yet. However, scholars is doesn’t necessarily (or even often) come with a designated scholarship for that program</p>
<p>ok thank you!</p>
<p>This is going to sound super dumb, sorry haha. I applied to CAS but I was accepted to the Core Program. Does this mean I wasn’t good enough to get into CAS, or is the Core Program and elite thing? I really have no idea what it is and I can’t find that much info on it online, but I read the posts on this feed about it. thank you!!</p>
<p>Hi, do you know how many years/places we can study abroad? </p>
<p>If by Core you mean the Liberal Studies Program, then generally, the theory is that they put people there who they feel would benefit from the small class/highly liberal arts focused first two years. No one really knows for sure though</p>
<p>@kmfloyd22 It doesn’t sound super dumb! It’s a subject for confusion among a lot of us here lol. Like jazzcatastrophe said, they put people there who would benefit from small classes. I’ve also heard a theory that people there tend to have high GPAs but lower test scores. I applied directly into the program so I’m really not sure. But I can say that I do really like it!</p>
<p>@tangello you can study abroad as much as you want and as much as your major(s) allow. Since there are a more limited number of classes offered in each abroad location, you have to make sure that your academic plan allows for studying abroad. Most students can fit in at least one, and many can fit more. It depends on where you want to go!</p>
