Okay so I’m probably going to sound ungrateful but hear me out. I was accepted into NYU Tisch last year for undergrad film/tv. I recieved pretty much a full ride (ish) with a $66,000 tisch scholarship plus federal grants/loans to cover the rest. The thing is I’m not so sure I want to do film and instead am interested in a social work degree from NYU Silver. If I do an internal transfer, is it 100% sure I’d lose all of that tisch scholarship? Should I just suffer through and double major so I at least keep that extra 66k? I can definitely not afford to stay at NYU without it, but is it worth it to stay in a major I don’t enjoy? I love NYU and I realize double majoring might be my only choice, but would it be worth it?
We can’t tell you whether you would lose your scholarship or not. You need to take responsibility and ask for yourself. If you would lose it, I would do a double major.
