This doesn’t have to be the case though… NYC has plenty of things to do on a budget, giving you some wonderful experiences without breaking the bank! Keep reading for some tips on how you can navigate all that living in New York has to offer, while on a college budget!
The first place to score some deals is right here on campus! Campus Concierge, located in DAC, provides students with the opportunity to purchase tickets at a discounted price.
