GPA: 97.65 uw (i think... my transcript is all screwed up)

Applied to College of Arts and Sciences
Took the most difficult courses...
I'd like to think my recs and essays were good (but that's more opinion than fact)
Pretty much a lot of ecs...

Do you go to a private or public school? I think your chances are pretty good.

Your stats look pretty good for CAS, I guess. Did you receive the recent invitations to Sunday or Weekend at the Square events? If so, that means you're in. Your SAT is about midrange for the middle 50% (1300-1450) so that's good. SAT II's are a little low but they're not required so probably won't hurt you. Good luck.

I don't think I received any invites or my dad would have told me... because he opens ALL of my college mail (kinda sucks, but what can I do?) So if I didn't get one does that mean I'm not in? I'm going to check with my dad about the invitations.

Dianars, it's hard to tell. You might get into GSP OR CAS. You're a difficult case for us because more ppl on CC have higher stats than not, so we haven't heard of enough people with your stats who got into NYU. Your Math IC is really low, tho! Your chances probably aren't too great for regular admission.

By Matth (Matth) on Saturday, March 20, 2004 - 11:27 am: Edit

Agree with Chen here. If you're looking at Stern, I'd say it's probably a no.

By Dianars (Dianars) on Saturday, March 20, 2004 - 12:02 pm: Edit
