<p>Singerfromlondon: on the other hand if being in NYC is your 1st priority, one of the least expensive university systems in the US is CUNY, City University of NY. Tuition is $6000/yr for NYS residents and you’re considered a resident after a year in NY; the fisrt year as an international you would probably pay around $12000. <a href=“Tuition Calculator”>https://orapp.hunter.cuny.edu/tuition_calculator/&lt;/a&gt;

<p>They have many campuses all over the city; for music I think Hunter and City College would have the biggest programs.

<p>^Hofstra is not in NYC; though they like to play up their proximity to the city, it takes around an hour to get into Manhattan from their campus. I work a few minutes away from Hofstra and while it’s true that we’re a few miles away from NYC, the full truth is that we’re a few miles from the border with Queens, an outer borough of NYC, and not at all close to what everyone considers “the city”.</p>
