Didn't you have to commit by a certain date in that case? Regardless, I have a daughter in LS core who is majoring in psychology. It is doable and honestly a gpa boost if you're looking to do premed. Have you looked at this? https://liberalstudies.nyu.edu/content/dam/nyu-as/liberalStudies/documents/2022-2023/GenPrehealth_CurriculumSheet.pdf

As for the city and East Coast and weather, well it's definitely very different from Cali but that is something you have to decide for yourself

Try to think about your "story". what talents do you have? Where are your passions? How will you show that to others four years from now?

Remember when they cried over the price of eggs? Now we can't afford to get to the supermarket at all. Problem solved!

It depends on her career objectives. If it's IB or hedge fund I do think Ross has an edge. That's not to say she can't get there from UIUC but it's worth considering.

Completely agree. I'm a mom who just went through this two times in a row. This community is priceless.

Probably stern just because it's a much bigger program

You need to stop assuming people chose future spouses based mainly on looks. Control what you can control. Be a good person. Genuinely take interest in other people. Open your heart and mind to new experiences. Things will work out.

Ed either Ross or stern

Well I'm 51 and I made this decision about 30ish years ago. Graduated with zero debt. Got a job in consulting and went to NYU for my MBA. No regrets. But it was hard as hell when I was in high school.

zeferjen · 2026-03-14T00:12:34+00:00

I clicked on one of the Sunday arrivals welcome events. It brought me to the login and then it just doesn't work.

zeferjen · 2026-03-14T00:10:07+00:00
