<p>Okay here's the deal--NYU admissions won't return my calls or emails so I'm going to try this website again. </p>
<p>I'm an art student that also has liberal arts sort of interests, humanities, history and so on. At the information session at NYU they said that certain schools' students can only cross enroll in classes at certain schools and only certain classes. Will I be limited in my class choices if I apply to the school of education where their studio art program is? If so, should I apply to Gallatin? I would be a strong applicant to both schools I think, but I jsut dont want to apply to the wrong school. Does anyone know anything about anyone who has been in a situation like me, or does anyone really have any input on this? tempus fugit</p>
<p>This really depends on what other schools you want to take classes from. If you want to take a ton of marketing or dance classes, for example, you will be limited because both Tisch and Stern give their students first choice for their classes and they do limit other students to a certain number of courses from their schools. If you want to take a ton of history classes as well as your studio art classes you will have little to no problem because CAS is very open to all students and you can take lots of courses there, as a matter of fact you MUST take alot of classes there to fill your core curriculum. If you go onto the NYU website the Tisch and Stern websites should explain there policies. The other schools really aren't strict about the number of classes you can take. Ask JWBlue if you have more questions he has tons of NYU info because he's an '00 grad. He can verify all that I've said. Good luck with admissions!</p>
<p>If you have serious interests in subjects outside of art, then I do suggest Gallatin. Gallatin does have Art Workshops too - look on their site for more about them. Outside of that you can take studio art classes at Steinhardt for non-art majors, as well as some Tisch classes that are also for non-art majors. </p>
<p>If you want a serious art curriculum though, I suggest you choose Steinhardt. If you do this, you will not only be taking soley art classes - you still have to take MAP classes (NYU's standard liberal arts requirements that are not exactly reveled across the student body) and you will have opportunities to take elective classes. </p>
<p>It seems like you'd be more suited to Gallatin. You seem to have a bunch of varied interests, and Gallatin will better be able to serve your needs than School of Ed. School of Ed. majors are very planned, and the number of liberal arts classes you can take from there will be somewhat limited because you will be following a very charted course. In contrast, Gallatin will by far give you the biggest choice and flexibility in classes since you design your own major there.</p>
<p>jwblue--just rememebered i had this posted--If gallatin lets me design my own curriculum, am i open to all studio art classes if i declare that as my pseudo major,--as in if that's a large bulk of it, am i available to take all the studio classes I'd want to--what's the deal with gallatin, i'm kind of confused by it...thanks</p>
<p>Tagran, you won't be open to all Studio Art classes. Within the Studio Art dept. there are classes for nonmajors, and you would take those. It's a good bulk of classes that are offered, but not as much as if you were a Studio Art major.</p>
<p>No, you can't. Tisch and Steinhardt, even CAS at times (Journalism), have certain classes restricted to majors only. Albert, NYU's registration system, simply will disallow you to register for those classes.</p>
<p>CAS is tougher to get in than Gallatin. However, I heard, and it's true, that A LOT of people applied to Gallatin this year. Kick Olsen twins out!</p>
<p>But how does Gallatin work then, how is it true to its, your major you decide if you can't even take all the classes you want to--that seems pretty, contradictory...? to me, yeah i don't know, it looks lke steinhardt is what you're pushing me to, but that seems to controlled of an environment...</p>
