Hi monad,
I would venture that between the two options you list, NYU R2 is your better chance, as R3 can get quite competitive and the NYU class is much larger. I can't speak specifically about job prospects coming out of NYU part-time, but you can call the career placement office and ask them for recent data on part-time graduates.
Good luck!
