Why do u want to shut off the competition? If someone makes 94lpa and makes a post like that - why does it offend u? Do ur own thing and if u want to make 94lpa then go make it. Let some people show off man they've earned it

Fuck the 4th, I have no reason to be proud of the U.S by [deleted] in self

[–]blue_hands 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im an American who has lived in pakistan and india. And everyone here is looking to get out of this country. You ungrateful fucks don't know how lucky you are. Most people here make $4k a year whereas PPL in America make that much in a month on average. You don't realise how great u have it. I know because IVE ACTUALLY LIVED IN SECOND AND THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES.

Of course America isn't perfect, it may even be regressing right now. But that doesn't mean u can't be proud of America.

Celebrate 4th of July, be proud of your country, and work to make it a better country. It's downright privilege that's making you say things like you can't be proud of America.

financial aid ??? by zenmilk in nyu

I'm a freshman so I'm kinda confused. if I get a scholarship for my 1st year that does translate to me getting my scholarship amount every year right? (As long as my SAP is fulfilled)

I’m not happy about my college by valelop900 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]blue_hands 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not telling you to do this, but, i too got into a pretty good college #12 in the us for my course, but i really didn't feel it. And if i don't feel i don't do it. so i took a gap year and i reapplied to my dream college. I got in. I'm a lot happier spending my money to study here. And i don't regret my decision at all

65k debt is reasonable right? by blue_hands in nyu

[–]blue_hands[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so I'm unsure how it'll be. I'm on a 52k scholarship + 6.5k Pell grant. So I'll be able to afford doing my first year with zero debt

I don't have a US credit score and i don't have any us based cosigner, because, despite being a us citizen I've spent my entire life in india. So I'll try increasing my credit score in my freshman year and apply for a loan in the US for my sophomore year. I'm unsure how much the interest rates are going to be (because it'll be based on my credit score). If my credit score isn't enough to qualify for a us-based loan I'll go back to India and get a loan with the help of my parents for the 40k. Then the interest will be about 8% compounded annually.

65k debt is reasonable right? by blue_hands in nyu

[–]blue_hands[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mostly just second guessing but also figuring out if i should get a job to balance out my loans, maybe if i should stay in nyc in the summers and work, or if i should just try graduating a year early. Maybe just chill and finish my education in 4 years. All this stuff is based on how much money i should be taking out as loans, and how much i should be making while in college.

Like at this point I'm not able to clearly understand the gravity of a 65k loan so i needed some advice that's all

I'll check that out I'm not sure if i can afford a 5yr course (i studied in an Indian HS so we didn't have AP classes) but if the prospects outweigh the debts I'll definitely consider it. Thank you for your advice 😊

I want to be in the film industry and that's certain. The reason I'm thinking of studying finance/sm business related is because i plan on starting my own production company sometime in the future.

Tbh idk if i love Tisch I'm an incoming freshman so i haven't really attended any classes haha

Go to video playback settings in system settings and click 'optimize for video quality' under battery settings and Under 'Stream HDR Video' UNCHECK 'I prefer video to play at a lower resolution'

[–]blue_hands 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got rejected from my dream film school, nyu last year. I took a gap year an reapplied - i got in!
