NYU Students Claim Defunct Tisch Asia Was a Rip-Off in Suit

The campus is world class — the education, not so much. Three New York University students claim they got ripped off for hundreds of thousands of dollars attending the school’s now defunct offshoot, Tisch Asia, according to a lawsuit filed Monday. The trio, including two Master’s degree graduates, plunked down at least $100,000 each in tuition to study at the school in Singapore — which never lived up to the hype, the Manhattan federal court complaint says.
