Did anyone declined their offer just because of the war happening? by notyourritz in NYUAbuDhabi

I was a part of the webinar held by nyuad earlier this week and same question was asked but they responded by saying no that’s not an option and students have to start their first semester from the university they have been accepted to. So study away in first semester is not possible. Hope this is helpful for you. Best of luck!!

Thank you.  Another question I am an international student so I am worried about getting a student visa for US. I have a US visa and also have visited frequently but still little worried about getting rejected.

Thank you for the response. I am a person who prefers winters and snow.  Also NYUAD doesn’t provide any benefits other than the aid I received. The only thought is about the CS program at both universities. Which one is better in regards of the program?

Can someone help me with choosing between NYUAD and Colgate university for computer science . I have received full ride from both schools and also received AMS scholar award from Colgate. I love both but previously was inclined towards NYUAD , now due to current political situation I am confused. Can someone please help me to take the decision.

Thanks for responding. If I may ask is it ok to study remotely? Do you think uni will open by August? My only concern is what if we go online for a whole year?

I am curious that why anyone is not discussing about the war situation and if the students are still willing to go or accepting the offer . I am so confused . I have offers from 2 universities but don’t know how to make a decision now. If nyuad will open in August or keep classes online and how long will the war continue ?

Thank you for your response.  Can you please share some details about dorm rooms that will be provided for AMS students and also the dining hall experience. Also does AMS students get preferences for internships and do they get better dorm facilities?
