<p>they are so stingy...</p>
<p>mine was rad.</p>
<p>how so? they wanted me to take out 30,000 in loans.</p>
<p>me too. :(</p>
<p>well, we similar in loans, but my parents say that theyd rather do loans and pay it back in 4 years then pay it off now. I have no idea why, but they like it a lot. I just liked that it wasn't all loans and I didnt think I was getting any aid</p>
<p>well, that's not rad at all. Getting a full ride would be "rad".</p>
<p>We are looking at an almost full-ride at Vassar vs. 40,000 in loans per year at Tisch. Tisch is first choice but it is impossible to justify imo --this is $120,000 in debt up front for a person who wants a career as a creative artist. You can study film at Vassar, too.</p>
<p>i was surprised, mine was a lot better than i expected. yayy.....</p>
<p>dont be mean... it was rad for me. jeez.</p>
<p>

</p>
<p>i'll take your $30,000 in loans and trade for my offer of $46,000 (in loans).</p>
<p>cloverdale7, I believe that if you (or your S or D, I can't figure it out) can get into the prestigious Tisch school, you have great potential. That means IMHO that you will succeed as a person no matter where you will go to college. Personally, I am intending to go for the money. I got into some reputable universities but I am leaning towards going to a lesser known college that offers me more finaid wise.</p>
<p>^ <em>vomits</em> thats a whole lot</p>
<p>directed to the person above you</p>
<p>It was an emotional day to say the least, Stephensploosh. Puts me in a lovely position.</p>
<p>^sorry i was rude, lol yesterday was my emotional day i was like yey NYU STERN! then NOOO I CANT AFFORD IT, I MIGHT REGRET THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, to OMG ITS NOT WORTH IT, to OMG ITS NYU!, i have no idea</p>
<p>i apologize again, its just that when i see almost twice my mom's income in loans i feel a little nautious</p>
<p>Oh, no, I didn't mean anything by it. I was completely agreeing with you. I guess the sardonic tone didn't translate well.</p>
<p>i know that you weren't saying anything about what i said, i just reread what i wrote and found it completely obnoxious so i apologized</p>
<p>Heh, it's all good. I still don't see a problem with it. Anyway, let me get back to sulking.</p>
<p>Add me to the list of massively large, pointless loan offers: $43,170 (and the other $4000 is a work study). Its pretty sad when one of the top 5 business programs refuses to even give decent financial aid to its students. On top of this, its not like NYU suffers from a low endowment. This is just really frustrating. On one hand I have been accepted to one of the top business programs in the world, and on the other hand this program expects me (and many others from what i have heard) to go $172,000 in debt (not even counting interest) to recieve an education from their school.</p>
<p>I wasnt expecting good financial aid based on what ive heard about NYU, but considering i have gotten over $30,000 in financial aid from every other private school i have been accepted to (6 others), this package from NYU is just atrocious.</p>
<p>NYU should seriously consider reevaluating their financial aid policies. I dont see how they can improve as an institution if they do not allow families with low incomes a decent chance of affording their education. Currently they are losing many talented students because of their stringent policies. Instead the school should invest in these students by providing them with more aid. All you have to do is look at the top schools in America to see that this policy works great not only for the students, but for the institutions themselves. Ahhhh, whatever...their loss.</p>
