Hey, thanks! I’ll check it out.

Wow this is very solid, I’ll have to see what schools they have in the area. Is it really only a year in NY to get financial help from the state?

Ah fair. Thanks so much for sharing! I appreciate the insights

That sounds quite nice. I’ll look NJIT and see if I can get in. Thanks!

I’ve heard a lot of people live in Jersey and commute to NYC for work. This is all solid advice though! Thanks

For reference, I am in my mid 20s, and the most experience I have with this kind of move is moving from my parent’s rural house to a much, much smaller city than NY. Though, college first approach is a good point. I do already have my associate’s and not many credits left in my bachelor’s (I think another year?), but I have no career experience in my chosen field and finding good internships in my area is basically impossible because there are no internships in my area really.

Ya know, that’s a completely fair analysis. Tbh I probably am trying to force it, I just quite like the idea of living in a massive sprawling city and Mamdani. In general I want to get the fuck out of the country, but since that likely won’t happen for a while, I want to at least move to a decent city in a decent state.

That’s a fair point but I’m not sure how much I’d want to live in a dorm… I don’t mind having roommates but dorm conditions seem kinda harsh, at least at the college I currently go to. What colleges are there in Upstate NY?

Subleases are a good idea! Do people still use craigslist though? Thanks for recommending CUNY and SUNY, I’ll have to check that out as well. Thanks!

This is good insight. Thanks! I was pretty much expecting to have roommates anyways, it’s not a major problem if I have them, but how undesirable of a location are you talking?

I would have thought wages to be higher in tandem for rent, is it not?

That’s a fair point. Is NJIT covered under FAFSA? I can’t afford college on my own without government assistance. Also, I was pretty much expecting to have roommates anways lol.

Yeah I’m realizing that now. I guess I was mostly thinking of NYC because of Mamdani, plus I’ve visited before and it was cool as fuck; only other city I’ve visited before was Pittsburgh and I have my own reasons for not moving there. Upstate could work but I’m mostly interested in living in or near a metropolitan area in the north east. Really my ultimate goal is to get the fuck out of the country but that likely won’t happen for a long while.

Of course he is, because he was never on our side. No war but class war
