NYU’s Washington Square campus enjoys one of the most exclusive and coveted locations of any college in the United States, right at the heart of Lower Manhattan on the edge of Greenwich Village. The abundance of things to do in your off-time is simply staggering, with sheer volume of coffeehouses, bars, comedy clubs, galleries, and music venues within walking distance of campus far too extensive to name here. You’ll be right next door to Washington Square Park, a perfect place to chill out between classes, and the Washington Square Subway Station will be your lifeline for getting anywhere else in the city. Catch an exotic movie at the IFC Center on 6th Avenue, or check out an off-Broadway show at the landmark Cherry Lane Theatre; your NYU card is your ticket to many of the best museums in the city as well. Of course, at some point you’ll have to find time to squeeze in things like studying— the stimulation overload surrounding you might make this more challenging than you might expect, but luckily the legendary New York Public Library is close by, providing a superb environment for catching up on your scholarly pursuits.
