Is $56k a year really worth it for NYU?

<p>I got into NYU Business & Political Economy program in Stern, but I don't know if should go! I've also been accepted at UCLA and UCSD (and some others) but those are the three I'm currently looking to attend. I'm not quite sure if I'd go into business if I went to UCLA or UCSD (applied as anthropology major), I'm keeping my options open still. I live in CA so I'd get the CA tuition price, so est. cost per year at UCLA or UCSD would be about $28k-29k...compared to the NYU price tag of $56,500 per year. Would it be worth it to go to NYU? Because I'm also going to go to grad school as well...</p>

<p>If you’re going to grad school generally you don’t want to spend too much on undergrad… If you’re goal is Wall St. though, NYU may be an exception to the rule.</p>

<p>Definitely go to Berkeley. Not even a shadow of a doubt.</p>

<p>NYU grads make up the troops but almost never the leaders on Wall Street. In spite of the financial wreck in California, I’d opt for UCLA. Save your money and look to NY again in a few years, if that’s your bent.
And if a few years from now Wall Street is no longer what interests you, not so much debt, or need to apologize to your parents for such an expensive education.</p>
