Student Opinions About Studying in New York

“The best perk about living in New York City for me is that the city is so alive, and there’s always an infinity of events to check out if you know where to look.”

“A good way to quickly start to settle in and feel at home in NYC after moving here is to keep your eyes open for posters advertising events, especially those put up on campus grounds. Something I’ve learned in my time here is that this city attracts all kinds of incredible, talented and smart people, so you really have the opportunity to find your people and make connections.”

“When you’re looking for an apartment to rent, everyone should be aware that there are a lot of landlords who will try to force you into paying a lot of money in advance, but the law is that they can only ask for a maximum of a security deposit worth the same amount as one month’s rent. If they insist on more money, just keep looking for another flat, and don’t get discouraged!”
