College

are there any colleges in New York besides NYU that are considered good?

Hmm idk, but Columbia and Cornell come to mind.

U Rochester, Vassar, Barnard, Colgate, Hamilton, Union, RPI, Fordham. That’s just naming a few. New York is loaded with schools.

New York State or New York City? Within New York State, NYU would be sixth by SAT scores. This should give you some idea of the depth of the State’s colleges.

Plenty. Columbia, Cornell, Rochester, Fordham, Cooper Union, and probably a lot more that I can’t think of.

Wow nobody mentions Bighamton university, stony brook, UB, U of Albany and SUNY geneseo

How does NYU get to be so known that a 17 year old would need to ask if there are any other “good schools” in NY other than that over-rated school?

@mom2coIIegekids Probably from movies and TV. NYC life is romanticised to the point that teenagers think NYU students stroll the city with a Bergdorf shopping bag, going from gallery to gallery and topping it off with a martini at the St. Regis.

Boys are guilty as well because if you ask suburban NY boys they say Clemson, Alabama and Georgia are the places to hook up because they see the cheerleaders on TV.
