I've been searching the web lately for advice on writing my NYU supplemental essays, and I kept coming up with discussion threads from this site. I'm really nervous about applying to NYU CAS since I don't have a very exceptional academic history and I never participated much in extracurricular activities. My current GPA is a 3.6, and I've only taken two honors classes and an AP Government class. I am going to take the SAT I & II in December. I've always been on my school's honor roll and have received plenty of academic achievement awards, but the only activities that I've done that could be considered extracurricular are choir concerts. Last year I was a "year program" foreign exchange student to Italy, and while I was there, I served as an interpreter for a group of Italian students during their school trip to England. Other than that, I feel that I don't have much to offer, and, as I've said, I'm extremely nervous! Does anyone think that I have a chance? ]]> New York Colleges cmc270-314716 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/814110-nyu.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/808956-about-cooper-union-nyc.html Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:10:11 GMT Anyone get accepted by Cooper Union?How hard to get into?

If she doesn't get in to this program, is it still binding for her second and third choice college which are Whitman and then CAS? ]]> New York Colleges alismya-89838 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/808607-syracuse-ed-question.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/805379-best-sunys-cunys-physical-sciences.html Thu, 05 Nov 2009 04:30:41 GMT I think the title says it all :) I think the title says it all :) ]]> New York Colleges sunshower212-309490 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/805379-best-sunys-cunys-physical-sciences.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/790749-chances-getting-into-fordham.html Fri, 09 Oct 2009 01:09:20 GMT HI. i was wondering if anyone who was accepted to Fordham University can give me an insight into how hard it was and if I am on the right track to getting there. I'm a senior with 3.6 weighted GPA, four years of heavy sports (year round swimming and four year varsity high school) pretty good EC's, was the Girls State Delegate for my school, am now the president for Key Club and VP for PTSA. Good church and community service hours. SAT's were pretty low (1540) but I am taking them over again and ACT was 26. Fordham is the school that I have been the most passionate since sophomore year. If anyone can give me and insight into how my chances of getting accepted look, I would very much appreciate it! Thanks! ]]> New York Colleges ireny2010-301366 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-colleges/790749-chances-getting-into-fordham.html
