Family Ties, First Goodbyes: A Sibling Story at NYU Abu Dhabi

"We all came in one by one and now ... one by one we're going to be leaving. It's a little bit sad but exciting at the same time."

Word around the NYU Abu Dhabi campus is that these four siblings all studying at NYUAD are the "Mountcastle Dynasty." The Mountcastles are from Florida but have lived and studied in Saudi Arabia, Spain, and Singapore. Four out of the five siblings are enrolled at NYU Abu Dhabi.

Zane (junior), Hayden (sophomore), and Alexis (freshman) reflect on their relationship and what brought them to NYUAD on the day of Daniel's graduation.
