<p>I am very interseted in going to school in new York city. NYU is. He dream school but need a backup considering the level of difficulty of being accepted. I want to persue music and was wondering which school was better in terms of thf following catogories: acedemics, student life/opportunities, dorms, and overall experience. I would love to hear your comments. Thanks.</p>
<p>Unless your finances are unlimited, you should look at CUNY. Queens College has a wonderful music program and now that it has dorms, it’s not so much of a commuter school. The LIRR is a short bus ride away from the campus and gets you into midtown in 20 minutes, or you can take the subway. </p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
