What impressed you positively?
most everything... i think nyu is a great school. Their facilities are not that old, and they are getting newer. You don't have to leave the building... ever... I went when it was pretty cold so this is relevent. Also the students were realy happy with the school and talked about how much fun they have as well. Location wise, its a good as can be expected. Dorms are not horrible... if you have ever lived on campus it will seem like freshman year and you move into appartments as you go up.
What impressed you negatively?
just the cost... not alot of financial aid going around... i guess this is the same of all med schools though.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
that the school is not on the main campus... wondering around new york is fun only if you know where you are going.
What are your general comments?
NYU jumps to my top three choices. The only thing that will keep me from going here if i get accepted is cost. I think the students basically sum it up. If you interviewed there you know they are some of the best in terms of balancing fun and work. The school gives quite a bit of money to see them have fun and enjoy New York.
