not everyone who is admitted gets the likely letter/invitation, i suspect.

Last year everyone who was admitted got the invitation for the event that's taking place on April 4 this year. Perhaps it's different this year.

I wonder if we can dig up old articles from NYU's paper about this? Wasn't a link someone posted to an NYU article dated a few years ago? It did say that the invite was only offered to the top students, so they might've said it was only offered to the top students last year as well. You seem sure about what you're saying, Matth, is there any link you could give us so we can be sure too?

Jab23rox, I now understand your frustation. You have excellent stats. Would you say your essay and recs were excellent too? It seems like NYU randomly rejects people almost :/

sunday at the square is for exceptional students(tio few % of incoming class), university day seems a bit more random but it does mean good news is prolly on the way so congrats
