<p>General Comments: Can’t wait to start at NYU!</p>
<p>I’m in Tisch right now, and I love it. That said, I don’t know if you have already decided on NYU, but in my honest opinion, if it’s not Tisch or Stern or maybe Gallatin, it’s not worth the expense. NYU is great, of course, but you can get just as good an education as CAS or Steinhardt can give you elsewhere for less tuition. Of course, if money is not an issue, nothing beats living in NYC. And the city is definitely an important part of the whole NYU mindset, especially Tisch, I think.</p>
