On.  Living in NYC w/o college assistance would be very expensive

Keep checking the local listings, I have a friend who got an awesome 1 bedroom that was just off campus, and it was cheap.  Unfortunately he still lives there so his place won't be for rent any time soon.   You will love Chapel Hill and Franklin Street.   Just watch out for the crazy Jeep drivers.

Cornell is very good. And it happens to be in NY state. \nA bit cold though.

I graduated from there. It is a BIG school with an amazing selection of excellent degree programs. I suggest you live in the dorms to start off -- you have to find a community there or you'll go a little nuts.

Sure you can - but you might not be able to have all of the luxuries that you might be used to.  You most definitely will not be able to live alone, however.  Most 1 bedroom places have rents through the roof!  You can find a roommate on craigslist, or if you're just out of college - check the local off-campus housing listings.  You might even want to check out a different borough (Queens/Brooklyn) or something over in New Jersey (Jersey City or Hoboken).  Getting an apartment with 1 or 2 other people will make your rent much more affordable than living alone.  \n\nNYC is a pricey town - but you don't have to make millions to live comfortably.  There are lots of things to do that don't cost a lot, you just have to stay away from the silly, trendy places. \n\nGood luck =)

NYU has a nation fame associated with it.  It is a good college, but it will cost you (unless you have a lot of scholarships).  It is one of the most diverse campuses since NYC is the most diverse city in the world.\n\nYou will have to live in a major metropolis too, so that could be a good or bad thing.  Your class sizes will be HUGE to start with, and should get smaller as you define your major.

1) I don't like sharing 300 square feet of space with 3 other people.\n\n2) Why should I pay to do that when I can pay the same amount and have my own rented apartment?\n\n3) No parking for dormers.\n\n4) I work.\n\n5) Where do you live when the school year is on summer break (assuming you don't have parents)?\n\n6) Nothing to do on-campus (that interests me at least).\n\n7) Living on your own is best for people with more independent personalities.\n\n8) Paying rent on time builds your credit worthiness.\n\n9) You meet more diverse people off-campus than on-campus.

I suggest that you opt for on campus boarding.Though it might look expensieve but has many hidden benefits .Such as you can be sure that you are better protected,you can avoid diseases(as some spread through,it matters where you rent an apartment or house,etc),In winter you can be protected from cold,Etc.\n\nAnd yes many many congrats on getting admission in good university.best of luck for your higher studies.

This is probably going to come down to the policies of the school you try to transfer into more than anything. The UC system notoriously frowns on tranfers, but different programs probably have different policies. The thinking used to be that once you're in, you're taken care of and they would prefer to give full time slots to students who don't yet have a place at a four year institution. That said, you don't know until you ask.\n\nAs far as living, I'm sure you've given some thought to lifestyle and location. I don't think it should be the biggest factor, but it really does make a difference. Los Angeles and New York are opposites in a lot of ways, and you might want to think about which suits you better in thinking about those choices. Stern and UCLA are in great parts of town, USC is a rougher area. I think it's hard to go wrong in Berkeley. Good luck.

Perhaps the answer is just as simple as getting an off-campus apartment.  At big schools like Ohio State and Indiana, lots of students own pets and live right next door to campus, but are officially off-campus, so it isn't a problem.

It can be.  Depends what you are looking for.  Some want big city, small city, suburban, small town, etc.  \nNYU does not have that much of a campus feel because it is smack in the middle of the city, and students live all over the place, with even some dorms miles from the main campus area.  \nBut, if you want to be in the big city, especially if you want to study the arts or business, it could be the place for you.\nI find that people appreciate grad school there more than undergrad.

There are many students of English in Manhattan. It is a big place, but you will find schools that have english classes in The Voice, which is a free newspaper.  Also try visiting Baruch College on Lexington Ave and 25th Street.  Or Hunter College at Lexington and 68th.  These are just two of the many colleges/schools in NYC where you can get help with your English. Otherwise just hang out at Union Square(14th St.), most people that are also hanging out wouldn't mind a short conversation with you if you are kind and not interrupting them.
