For me personally I am in the military and living in Germany so my plan is to get leave work and fly back the states around the 1st week fo June. In a perfect work I am trying to get some sort of internship next summer in the real estate field but from Europe and not actually being a student will make that really hard. The City of New York offers internships in a variety of fields to students with a minimum criteria of just being accepted so I am going to apply for that this spring. They don't pay but they do offer a free dorm room at NYU and some other local schools which would be a great way to learn more about the neighborhoods and figure out where I am going to live. How far in advance of orientation would you recommend arrivng in the city? I want to have my lease signed no later than 1 August.

I thought about quitting early as well, then I realized the giant tuition Bill i'll quickly be getting... I lived in NYC for 3 years... best city there is, but I tell you one thing, being poor in NYC is horrible and no fun, so I'd rather gut it out at work for an extra month or two and not worry about getting another round of $15 cocktails.
On that note, if anyone wants any advice on NYC I was a non-native who moved up and spent three years in the different neighborhoods, PM me, i'm happy to help. On word of advice, if you're going to live outside the UWS, better make sure to stay on the 1,2,3

Hey Kathmandu,
Given that you have already lived in NYC, how accurate do you consider the $96k budget/year (https://www8.gsb.columbia.edu/programs-a ... tion-costs)?
