It's criminal that 14% of NYU's class that is from the bottom 40%. Many of these people are probably making a life ruining decision, considering how expensive NYU is and how it doesn't provide the same level of finaid as actual elite schools.

"A government report released this month along with the data noted just how wide a disparity there can be in the prices poor students pay at similarly selective schools: Poor students pay an average of $8,086 per year at Columbia University ($8.2 billion endowment), versus $25,441 at NYU."

"A ProPublica analysis based on new data from the U.S. Department of Education shows that students from low-income families graduate from NYU saddled with huge federal loans. The school’s Pell grant recipients—students from families that make less than $30,000 a year—owe an average of $23,250 in federal loans after graduation. That’s more federal loan debt than low-income students take on at the for-profit giant University of Phoenix, though NYU graduates have higher earnings and are less likely to default on their debt."

Rebecca Arthur wanted nothing more than to study photography at Tisch, NYU’s arts school. Her mother, however, made less than $25,000 a year working at a nursing home, so Arthur knew the school’s four-year price tag of over $250,000 would be a stretch. When Arthur was accepted, she was shocked—not only because she had gotten into her dream school, but also because the school only offered modest financial aid.

“The first bill was $32,000 and it was more than my mom made in a year,” she said. “Why would they accept me if they knew I couldn’t afford it?”

Arthur tried to crowdfund the remaining amount of her tuition, but it was only when her mother died a month before school started that NYU agreed to take a second look at her financial-aid package. Although the school increased her aid, she has to work four jobs and expects to graduate with more than $24,000 in loans.

She should either be at a top private school with a huge endowment where they pay most of your way, or she should be at Binghamton or Geneseo.

Not her fault though, which is the tragic part. I'm sure she got bad advice, or no advice at all.

23k in student loans is below average for a four-year graduate, I believe. We aren't talking about law school debt here.

TBF, those are the absolute poorest students (those making less than 30k a year). Those people don't owe a cent at top private universities and LACs.

I got $25,000 per year, but COA is still $80,000, and better schools gave me more.

NYU and other second-tier privates, like USC, offer full scholarships, but those are merit-based, and there are only a handful of them.

that's how it was in the past - if you had a cushy job lined up from mom or dad then you could "broaden your horizons" for 4 yrs at a libarts school

libarts were never intended for poors and they were never intended to make a living
