<p>I think you should spend some time on the web site and read the course bulletin before you enroll. Just so you know what you are getting into.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’ve done the classes. I’m not very religious, but that aspect of it will be interesting and fresh. Plus, I plan to go to grad school, so where you go to undergrad does not matter as much.</p>
<p>I’m calling them in the morning to talk.</p>
<p>Does anyone know if NYU charges some kind of fee or gives a hard time for breaking an early decision contract?</p>
<p>I know of some schools that “blacklist” you from all other schools so you can’t go anywhere else. Does NYU stoop this low?</p>
<p>If you are accepted ED, you are supposed to withdraw all other applications. So how could you truthfully even have an offer from Kings college?</p>
<p>When my private loan got denied earlier in the month, I applied to a few schools just in case I couldn’t go to NYU.</p>
<p>King’s being one of them. They offer rolling decision.</p>
<p>If you have a true, legitimate reason why you cannot afford an ED acceptance, there should not be an issue with being “blacklisted”.</p>
<p>Good luck. Let us know what happens.</p>
<p>So with their COA of 46K a year you will still be paying a lot for a school that likely does not have much of an alumni network and history of recruiting by Wall Street companies given that they just got accredited last year and are so small. And bypassing a school like IU that has a strong alumni network in NYC and across country, is top ten in the country in accounting and finance, and has a great placement office the that you could have attended for $10,000 a year, including room and board, with the scholarships you refused from them?</p>
<p>Here is a Wall Street Journal article about New Yorkers that want to get into IU.<br>
[From</a> Bloomingdale’s to Bloomington - WSJ.com](<a href=“From Bloomingdale's to Bloomington - WSJ”>From Bloomingdale's to Bloomington - WSJ)</p>
<p>His options have become limited at this juncture after accepting an ED, but he can opt to transfer after 2 years to another college in NYC that has a better alumni connection, even the CUNYs.</p>
<p>I’m not “turning down” IU. I called IU and they said I cant have my scholarship back.
TCK will only cost me about 11k.</p>
<p>I for one, stohare, wish you the best. You seem to have a very level head.</p>
<p>Re post #263. You will lose your deposit. You can simply explain to NYU that you were turned down for the loan – you can’t enroll if you don’t have the funds. NYU wants its bursar to be paid, and you’ve done just about everything you could. Your mom applied for a PLUS loan and was turned down; you applied for a private loan, and were turned down. What else is there?</p>
<p>I think that’s all. And yeah we’ll lose the $1,800 deposit… oh well.</p>
<p>Ouch – $1800? (Is that a housing deposit on top the deposit you made when accepted?)</p>
<p>In December we had to put down $300 for housing, $500 for tuition. In March, when we had to do housing rec’s we were required $1000.</p>
<p>^^^</p>
<p>See if any of that is refundable.</p>
<p>gee, if only OP was reading this…</p>
<p>I thought of this thread when the mail came today–a flyer for an NYU spring semester program. My reaction was, what a great way for a student to see New York and get a little experience without the huge price tag of four years there. The name of it is Spring in New York. The one thing the brochure omitted? COST</p>
<p>I’ve never understood the belief that you have to attend NYU in order to visit NYC. I wonder if this rule applies to other colleges; do you have to attend Georgetown in order to take a tour of the U.S. Capitol? NYC is not exactly a college town, so where does this perception come from?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Maybe it’s freeeee!</p>

<p>LOL…</p>
<p>Hey, I think that other NYC colleges should take advantage of this perspective. Come to OUR school and live in NYC. Maybe some think NYU is the ONLY school there.</p>
