Schools: NYU vs Rutgers
Intended major: Radiology / Sonography
Similarities: Both decent schools that I'm considering
NYU
Pros:
- Pretty prestigious and has a good ranking
- Basically outside my doorstep so the commute wouldn't be difficult
- Have friends attending, so I wouldn't be a complete loner
- Don't need to dorm because I live in the city
- Campus is the city, could also be a con
Cons:
- She costs a PRETTY penny, (not completely sure how my financial aid is going to look) but I'm trying not to have price influence my decision
- Admitted to LS, people have been telling me it's not as good (don't know if it'll work with my intended major)
Rutgers
Pros:
- Also a pretty good school, just not as competitive
- Admitted to the school / major I wanted
- Know people who plan on attending
- Change of scenery, it could be nice to get out of the city for experience
Cons:
- I'd probably need to dorm because 3 hours of traveling back n forth just doesn't float my boat
- Heard it was pretty ghetto
- New environment away from the city, not really sure if there's anything fun to do other than partying because I'm not a huge party person.
- Apparently it's like the suburbs??
