NYU is a great school to start a startup right now. This month alone we have:

> Fred Wilson speaking on campus about biotech startups,

> NYU Startup Week, with discussions on raising investment, working at a startup, etc,

> and a hackathon sponsored by hackNY[0], a fellowship for students interested in founding or working at a startup.

NYU is also 10 minutes away from General Assembly[1], possibly the largest tech co-working space in Manhattan.

Disclaimer: I'm a grad student at NYU, and I actually chose this program over others because of the startup environment in New York.
