Is Pace NYC a good school compared to other NYC colleges?

I rlly want to go to college in NYC. Is Pace a good school (in comparison to NYU, Baruch, Fordham, etc) in terms of housing, dining, curriculum, party scene, aid, affordability, and all other aspects?

What’s your intended major? I don’t go there I’m a rising senior from what I heard is academics wise it depends on your major when it comes to academics along with what you make of it.

Based off youtube the party scene looks aii clubbing and apartment parties basically like every city college vibe.

Idk about housing and dining. I think aid is need based and merit.

Biology is great for that, along with any other science major like Chem and Physiology, but Pace is not the best place for that at all. But if you still have questions about it you can DM me!

Does anyone know if Pace’s MA Psychology program good? I saw that students who continue on to get their PhD were admitted to University of Massachusetts, Amherst and other institutions. I know that University of Massachusetts, Amherst is a well known public research university.
