School doesn't rank. Its a blue ribbon school and its very hard compared to others.

Plans: Although I am VERY interested in becoming an entrepreneur, I would like to do economics or finance for undergrad. Also there is 0 chance for me to get into Stern.

I want to apply to CAS Early Decision for economics.
Although if I get in I will try to transfer to Stern but if I dont get accepted then I will be fine in CAS.

So what are my chances for early decision for NYU Cas?

THANKS!!

I think your Chances are pretty good. I would say 70% I guess? Good leadership, good extracurriculars, maybe take the SAT again?
