<p>Hi! </p>

<p>I do not chance people on here, but I would like to let you know that I was choosing between Wake & NYU as well. You can PM me if you have any specific questions, but I will explain why I made my decision. </p>

<p>For undergrad, I really wanted a campus, sports, and a smaller school. I love the city though, and that made my choice hard. In the end, I felt better about going to Wake and I am happy with my decision.</p>

<p>I will, however, be most likely applying to NYU (and not Wake) for graduate school, as I feel I would be better suited there now. I understand how it is hard for you - the schools are so different that they are extremely hard to compare. </p>

<p>I think NYU probably has a better reputation when it comes to business, but to be honest, I think the level of education will be similar at both. Wake has the highest CPA pass rate in the country. They are also similarly ranked by USNWR: Wake is #25 and NYU is #33. </p>

<p>My best advice is: They are both great schools with great opportunities. What would you rather have for your college experience? A small Southern school with a campus, Greek life, dorms that are close together, a small-school atmosphere, small classes, etc, or a large Northern school with no campus but a big city to play in, bigger classes, etc? </p>

<p>Please, please feel free to PM me with any questions - I swear I can be honest & unbiased :slight_smile: & best of luck with whatever you end up doing!</p>
