But, I am not really confident. They asked me in the interview will I take any extracurriculum in Columbia. I said no, because I will take required courses as much as I can in order to graduate sooner.

With a GPA like that and being a PTK member as well as being part of a non-profit organization, I am sure you have nothing to worry about. You received a 4.0 GPA in the course of two years at a community college? Did you take extra classes that you didn't need? That's amazing. It makes me feel like a total slacker. Lol. Good for you. I'm Cambodian btw.

NYU is awful, and their financial aid is awful. Don't go there.

But NYU is located at the heart of the city... It sucks the fact that it is not even an ivy league school, and the tuition cost is so high. I'm thinking about applying abroad for grad school now. Schools like Oxford in England and Cambridge, etc.
