The Big Kahuna Of All New York City Schools
New York University is the hip, prestigious, ever-innovative downtown city college par excellence. It's nice to take a stroll around the scenic Washington Square campus, and see the idyllic European-style Washington Mews houses. Few people know that the school used to maintain a second campus up in the Bronx, where Bronx Community College is now, but they had to consolidate downtown in the late 1960s when the school was about to go bankrupt. This exciting period in the school's history also saw the renaissance of its film program, which was host to such luminaries as director Martin Scorsese. Now the school is ranked among the best in the world for all varieties of academics and creative disciplines. The Bobst Library is one of the most extensive media archives in the city. The school color is violet, and their mascot: the bobcat!
Finding Good Housing As A Student
Greenwich Village is coveted real estate. In fact, finding an apartment anywhere in the five boroughs is a challenge. If you are on the hunt for off-campus apartment rentals, you can start with our useful apartment guide. Although 87 percent of freshmen live in dorms, about half the student body lives off-campus, so you might find some classmates interested in sharing digs. As long as you're cool with the subways, all of New York City is your oyster when it comes to finding apartments. Find out more about how students manage campus life versus city life by reading our blog.
Getting Around The City And Things To Do
There's the classic MTA with the buses and subways and taxis; you'll also find that NYU even has its own special fleet of shuttle buses, which your I.D. card will give you access to. Biking in the city is also great, if you have what it takes and are really good at dodging cars. You have the entire city to explore! Bookstores, theaters, the zoo, Broadway, Central Park, bars, you name it! If you're feeling lost, the best way to begin might be with the school's official website. In the immediate vicinity of the Washington Square campus, you have famous old music and comedy clubs like The Bitter End. For cheap, quality Middle Eastern food, ask around in the park for Mamoun's Falafel. It's nearby, and a good option if your studies and cosmopolitan gallivanting combined don't leave you a lot of time to cook for yourself. Given time, you’ll find your own favorites!
