do you thing i could ? i could finance myself probably but was hoping to get if it's realistic to expect to get in and not belittle my chances by asking financial aid. nyu is need aware right ?

and - what are my chances ?

i believe you have pretty good chances but try to get SAT results up. croats are under-represented although i know a croatian guy who is applying there this year but with american citizenship. apply to schools which give merit scholarships. or maybe you can finance yourself throughout freshman year and after apply for FA.

NYU doesn't give financial aid to international students.
