<p>Not to offend NYUADmama, but why would your son give up Tisch for Abu Dhabi to study theatre? I get the premise of being a new university with a full ride and all the positives that rather promising, but theatre?</p>
<p>Friends of mine at NYU are involved in Broadway internships/shadowing actors, serious student productions, etc. Theatre in Abu Dhabi vs. New York absolutely boggles my mind. </p>
<p>Aside from the large scholarship, how will the produce great theatre work/experiences when there are less than 200 students in the entire student body…? How many students are majoring in theatre?</p>
<p>I understand the school was crafted as a full-fledged liberal arts institution, but, theatre requires people.</p>
<p>I’m extremely curious.</p>

<p>Regarding an old post about the “you can always say you went to NYU,you don’t need to specify which one” argument:</p>
<p>After reading an NYT article on NYUAD (with interviews of future students and faculty), I was under the understanding that the degrees from NYUAD will say “NYUAD” and not just NYU.</p>
