Which is a better film school New York University or Emerson College?

I was recently accepted to both New York University and Emerson College. I am planning on studying film production. They are both really good schools. I love New York and I love Boston. From my research NYU is more expensive, but Emerson has much better campus housing. The only way that I can think to make my decision is to compare the film programs. So which one has a better film program, NYU or Emerson College?

I'm pretty sue NYU's film program is better ... but I go there, so I might be biased :D


2
to make the best choice go visit both schools and that way you can have more clear choice. hey can you answer my question? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100315220603AAeHkOL&r=w thanks!


3
Ofcourse NYU


4
NYU-Better rep, better connections---> easier to get a job when you graduate, better facilities, better location in the industry, more artistic, no campus Emerson-More hands on approach, you will be making films quicker, only have to take film related classes, lower acceptance standards--> SOME of the people around you may not be as experienced and talented, more personal feel What were your grades, SAT, extra curics btw?


5
Neither has a "better" program for the simple reason that degrees in "Film Studies" from both colleges lead to unemployment. Rule #1: Film Schools exist to provide salaries to Film School Professors.

I would say look to get into one of the top 2 in NY or if you are willing to relocate go for one of the top ten in the nation bacause employers look at that when they hire new architects. Good luck. Take a look at this links: http://www.archsoc.com/kcas/researchschool4.html http://www.uscollegesearch.org/new-york-architecture-colleges.html


2
The best one is Cooper Union, but they're ridiculously hard to get into. There's also Pratt, Parsons, and Columbia (at the graduate level), or failing that The City College of New York. I've never really heard of NYIT, but they seem to offer a professional B.Arch degree. City College of Technology only offers an "architectural technology" degree which would basically prepare you to do CAD drafting but not allow you to qualify to get a professional license to practice architecture.

Why is the New York School District paying 700 teachers to do nothing?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090622/ap_on_re_us/us_rubber_rooms_1 Apparently, the New York City "Public" Schools are paying 700 teachers to sit around and do nothing. Why won't the teachers union allow them to fire these teachers rather than waste tax dollars paying them to do nothing? Would this nonsense ever happen in a free market educational system rather than the socialist monopoly we currently have?

How to live in New York City for high school?

hey guys. i'm a sophomore in high school and i so desperately want to finish my high school years at a school in new york city. my parents are definitely up for it if i can figure it out, but i asked my relatives over there if there's anything they can help me with but it's not going to work out. i would really like some ideas on how i can live on the upper east side for the rest of my high school experience. money and getting into a school are not problems. thank you!

Get an apartment on the UES, apply for high school. Simple, as long as your parents are willing to move with you.


3
You wrote, "money and getting into a school are not problems." Well, if that's true, then what's the problem? I mean, just come here, rent an apartment, either with your parents or have them sign the lease for you if they're not joining you here, and then have your parents register you in the school in that district and go there, case closed, no big deal at all really. Good luck!


4
LOL! Actually, getting into school IS going to be a problem (money probably is, too, but let's not go there.) I am both a NYC public school teacher and I have a daughter who is, right now, applying to high school. So I know a LOT about the high school admissions process. The truth is, the system is not set up for people to enter in 11th grade. Many of the best schools just don't take new admits in 11th grade. You can apply for 9th or 10th grade, but if you enter in 11th grade, you are stuck with the "transfer" schools, or the schools that have seats left (not usually the best schools, might I add.)


5
OMG! DONT! iM A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT HERE..AND HIGH SCHOLS HERE SUCK!!!!!! ULL REGRET IT! WAIT TILL COLLEGE INSTEAD.. TRUST ME! YOU WILL NOT LIKE IT AT ALL!!!!

If money is not a problem, then there should be this Question. Since you mentioned Upper East Side, we all know you must be filthy rich unless you have no idea what you tawking about. My Rent is 4000 a month one bedroom in Manhattan, guess where?

none. regardless of what you may think, you must go to school 180 days of the year. there is no such thing as a "snow day". any time you have a "snow day", a day either gets taken away from one of your vacations, or gets added on to the end of the school year.


3
Depends if there is any snow. And how much snow there is.


4
Most likely 0. There was only 2 snow days in the last decade. I remember there was one in 2004 and last year. =)))))

luckkyy ive alllways wanted to live in new york! but anyways uhmm depends on where your moving. if your moving in like mahattan they dress veryyy expensive and stuff hahah not like abercrombie or anything but like high class. but if your moving in like the city they dont dress very nice i dont think.. haha sorry never really been to the cityy


2
all of them wear abercrombie and fitch, hollister, and american eagle. In manhattan, thats where i go to school, they shop at sak's fifth avenue, anthropologie, barneys, and especially bloomingdales. they like to call it bloomies and they love it. But all the clothes in these stores are more than a $100 for a shirt. Otherwise just buy abercrombie, hollister, and american eagle which are all cheap brands. everyone wheres it. These three cheaper brands are best suited for public schools, but work anywhere. The other, more expensive stores should only be for those in manhattan and those who go to private schools there since they are filled with rich kids. the average private school in manhattan is $30,000 a year and up so its hard to blend in with their expensive clothes. I go to one on a scholarship though so I'm able to buy expensive clothes. Don't worry about what you wear, you are in middle school. Start caring in high school. Some people in middle school are still shopping at limited too. Plus you grow out of your clothes fast. Save your money for the more designer ones everyone will have in high school. Im 17 and lived here my whole life by the way.

Well, I live in New York and I'm in middle school. Everyone sort of have their own style, so I think you will be just fine.

hey there, I'm quiet not sure, but If I had to guess, probably more urban wear...hip-hop, that sort of thing....

The days of the apprentice is back. WAY back in the day people learned to work on cars working under an experienced tech. For a long time the practice was mostly non existent. Now the industry has gotten back in to the apprentice practice because it really is the best way to learn how to work with cars. I was kicked out of 2 schools and now I am the top dog schooling the guys who went to a fancy school...

First off, I wish I could change your mind on going to school to learn this trade. As a 17 yr. auto body tech I can say that this profession has gone way downhill. I don't know another auto body tech that isn't looking for another profession. I still make the same annual salary that I made 13 yrs ago because insurance companies regulate our pay. And unfortunately it doesn't look like it will ever change. If you really want to learn how to do this, I wouldn't waste you money on an auto body school. Most employers will hire on experience anyway, which you won't have. My advice is to just apply at a local shop and see if they need any kind of entry level help. Detailer, gopher, cleanup etc.. and before you know it they will be asking to help tape cars prime stuff etc... and before you know it you'll be a full fledged auto body tech, broke from the amount of tools you will have to buy to do this job, and still making no money! auto body rate 1990-$34 pr. hr. 2008-$49pr. hr. Mechanics rate 1990-$35 2008-$75-$200 Hope this enlightens you on your career choice.

Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult for international students to get scholarships. If you were in the U.S., the process would be to do very well in school, apply to the schools and get accepted, and fill out a form called the FAFSA, which colleges use to determine your financial status and what type of financial aid you may get. As an international student, you probably would have to have already made a splash in fashion, so that you would be so desirable for the school that they would be willing to give you one of their very few scholarships.
