FRIDAY, APRIL 4th, 2008....

<p>S'okay. I got into Boston U and NYU. Now I just have to get my financial aid from NYU. They haven't sent anything about that.</p>

<p>I am really sorry. I am sure that where ever you go you will do fantastic. I always say that there is always a reason for everything. Best of luck to you.</p>

<p>Thanks guys. I'm just kind of mad I waited so long and wasted so much time. =/</p>

<p>nice...</p>

<p>i'm sorry.. BU has a better campus than NYU.. heads up</p>

<p>Yeah, but I think NYU might be a better school. I'm not sure yet. I know NYU's campus is nonexistant.</p>

<p>NYU's is EVERYWHERE.. just completely random.. but better location.. and NYU might be better.. depends on the major.. plus i think i'm biased since i love boston (the city)</p>

<p>I'm going to study the Classics.</p>

<p>Sorry Nickel. They don't know what they are missing! I live in NY and I can tell you there is no more interesting and exciting place to live than Greenwich Village NY. You have a great choice!</p>

<p>oo im sorry nickel, life's a ***** lol</p>

<p>I just hope NYU can give me good aid. =/ Boston U is giving me 32k in grants.</p>

<p>Nickel -- I'm so sorry to hear USC didn't accept you. I'm sure you will do well wherever you go. Please continue to keep us posted.</p>

<p>aww nickel...
Don't worry, USC's not worth it anyway. It's just filled with a bunch of spoiled rich kids. They're missing out on an awesome student if they rejected you.</p>

<p>I think you should choose Boston U. I've heard some bad things about NYU's academics.</p>

<p>BTW, to tell you the truth, i'm starting to lean towards UCSD since I'm a biology major, but I'll tell you if i hear back from USC.</p>

<p>Bad things about NYU? Like what?</p>

<p>Nickel Xenon- BU and NYU are EXCELLENT schools. My D (here with me) didn't get into USC two years ago and for her, it was the best thing. USC is not for everyone and she has excelled much better elsewhere. </p>

<p>Good luck to you- I've enjoyed watching your enthusiasm which I know will be with you wherever you go.</p>

<p>Just things about how NYU's academics don't meet up to their "prestige" or "name". </p>

<p>Plus BU is giving you money to go there =]</p>

<p>Well, I got into NYU through their general studies program and got into CAS at BU. I don't know if I'm ready to go to such huge lectures yet. xD Since they say at CAS BU most of the classes are lectures with huge number of students. =/</p>

<p>Nickel, sorry to hear you didn't make it into USC. It was a tough year for admissions. I know wherever you go you will succeed. We just returned from a visit to NYC and walked around Grenwich Village. It's a great area, lots going on. We had a a fantastic time in NYC. My niece graduated from NYC as did a fellow co-worker. They both have great things to say about NYU and NYC. BU is also a good school and Boston has lots to offer. Hope your financial aid from NYU comes soon so you can make a decision. The very best to you in the future.</p>

<p>Was it a hard area to navigate? I have no sense of direction. xD</p>

<p>No, the subways are easy to navigate and there was enough in Grenwich Village that you really dididn't need to go further afield to find things to do.</p>

<p>I kind of want to go to NYU, but I don't know if they'll give me good aid. The FAFSA didn't even ask about some things the CSS Profile did, which NYU does not ask for. =/ I hope they take into account the 20k drop in my parent's income.</p>
