Broke College Student Guide to New York City

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UAB chapter.

When looking at the life of a college student, it usually consist of wanting to take fun trips but not having the money to pay for it. Well, if you dont count the hotel and plane ride, here are some free and dirt cheap places to explore while you are taking that fun trip to New York!

1. Th 9/11 museum. This place is a great tourist spot to explore because its free on Tuesdays from 7:00 am until it closes!

 

2. Brooklyn Bridge Park. It gives you a spectacular view of the city. Great for awesome photo taking.

 

3. Central Park. Come on now, what’s a trip to New York without attending this famous place?

4. The staten Island Ferry. This ferry takes you to see the Statue of Liberty up close and personal. Not only is this place cool to visit but its also within budget.

5. Last but not least, Times Sqaure. Times Sqaure has some of the biggest shops you will ever see. Okay, so this one might not be as cheap if you have a shopping problem, but hey its still great to see!
