DO NOT I reapeat DO NOT waste your time money or effort comming to NYIT. It is a waste of time bullshit school with nothing to do. When i say nothing i mean that students go to school go to class then go back to the dorms and sleep ALL DAY. NYIT has no clubs programs nothin If your g believe me ive looked for them. IF your looking for a college experince this is not the place for you. Also if your not indian this is not the place for you the school is 50% indian maybe more. The dorms are not on campus so you have to wait for a unrelieable shittle bus which usually is the reasons why most students are late. The campus that we do live on is SUNY old westbury and i find it amusing that they pay about 70% less than we do and have all types of clubs flyers and things goin on. All and all nyit sucks ass dont come here me and alot of my classmates are trasfering as soon as humanly possible.

Quite Bright
NYIT is a waste of time if you are not interested in the art departments (graphic arts, architecture, etc...) The other departments are poorly run and don't offer anything to the students. The education department is now no longer existent except for a graduate program because it was so poor. The advisement staff is oblivious and doesn't do anything to actually help you decide your future.

As for the student life and school community there is none. If I didn't play a sport here I would want to probably kill myself. Being part of a sports team makes it a little better. Students glare at you if you say hi and totally ignore you if you have a question. I can not wait to get out of this dump and go to a real school for grad school. When people have asked me where do I go to college and I answer NYIT they respond what is that? or where is that? Exactly... don't waste your time or money on coming to this school. Go somewhere you will have fun! and actually get a decent education...

Not so bright
Here's the thing, I go to the Manahattan campus so things are a little different here than in Old Westbury. You have to actually try to make friends and do things on campus, as there isn't much to the spaces available. There are cliques and crews that may make a student who lives at home initially seem unwelcome, but it is very easy to join up with the various clubs and events that take place.

Is it the most difficult school in the world?
Not in the least, although you are expected to learn material and for the most part carry the information into succeeding courses. Although meant to be a career oriented university, some classes are best described as "repeat what the professor said and get an A."

Staff is helpful for the most part, and I have not had any major troubles yet (knock on wood) and when I did have financial aid issues, the SSC did help me.

In short: not the hardest school, but not entirely a pushover, helpful campus resources, but needs a little help in forming a true school community between the campuses.
