<p>self explanatory..i dont really know what i want to study..i started out as a math/science kid now im thinking about economics, international relations..but might choose bio or neuroscience in the end..im not sure...</p>

<p>as far as FA goes, i got all aid in grants 30K and fed loans 20K for NYU...last time I checked UVA it just had 8K loans, but its only the first day and I'm pretty sure they will add grants, just dont know how much..</p>

<p>personally i always loved nyc and urban campus...i know it will be a lot of fun. At the same time, it can be hard living there, its definitely gonna kick my ass, but Im ready for the challenege, and i hope i become a better person because of it..</p>

<p>can anyone compare, from an academic standpoint these two schools. which would be more impressive to ivy grad schools and employers in the city (ny, la)</p>

<p>*oh and im instate for UVa</p>

<p>Both are great schools, but when it comes down to it, financial aid should be your deciding factor. </p>

<p>Are those 20K loans for NYU annual? If so, realize that you would graduate with at least $80,000 in debt. If you are in-state for UVa, then it will likely be a lot cheaper for you.</p>

<p>If your goal is grad school, I would suggest saving as much money as possible now and get into debt after grad-school. Both are impressive, but your GPA will ultimately be the deciding factor.</p>
