I have high hopes to attend the New York City College in New York in the fall of 2011. I'll be a freshman and have room and board, including my courses. I'm curious to know how much it costs to live at the college as well as attend it for the average student? I live in California so I'll be a non-resident. I live in Northern California so I'm used to the rainy, ickey weather. It's the big city life that's going to be new to me.

Answer 1 :
Sell your car you won't need it. Eating out is expensive there and mostly not very good. The sun won't shine much during the school year. Jobs will be difficult to get. Check and see what dorm facilities are provided. The costs will be extreme. See what your parents say. See how much you like five-hour plane flights before layovers. If you're parents are rich, it won't matter. It will be cold and rainy often. You may want to see what scholarships are available including the Armed Services and the ROTC.
Answer 2 :
Right now the cost/unit is $415 for non-resident. If the economy continues on its present course, expect $500/unit or more. Staying in The Towers (least expensive) will run about $1000/month, so more when you get there. Food is hard to figure as it depends what you eat, how much, and where. It is going to cost you a fair amount more going to college in NYC than California. Over the course of a lifetime it really doesn't make any difference as far as the price goes!
Answer 3 :
As a non-resident, it will cost you about $7,500 per semester if you take all 18 possible credits. The cheapest room in The Towers is going to be about $2,500 per semester. That would mean that it would cost you about $20,000 per year, plus food. Considering you would be going to school right in New York City, and that NYU would cost you about $60,000 per year, this is a great price. Good luck!
