<p>I don’t think anyone can give a range. The one poster who got off the waitlist recently and reported getting $23,000 in FA might have had strong financial need. </p>
<p>Normally, NYU gives based on a combination of how much the school wants the student and the student’s financial need. (See NYU2013’s posts regarding how FA works for NYU students.) </p>
<p>Though to be honest, I am not sure how it works with people accepted off of the WL. There are people accepted directly (without going on the WL) who received no money. Common sense tells us that these students should be more attractive to the school. Who knows, maybe it boils down to financial need towards the end here? What I am not sure is how much merit money would be available in this “almost final” round of acceptances.</p>
