High reaches for both.
However… NYU has alternatives to submitting your SAT scores. Look into these.

7

If you can get your SAT to a 2000+, I think NYU and Boston University will become matches.

8

NYU is not a match at 2000+. Try 2200+ with a higher GPA.

@QuiteAverage90 My bad. I’m used to applicants asking for their chances at NYU schools like Stern, so that’s become my mental baseline for those colleges.

@NotVerySmart It’s fine. I understand.

@websters11 You should also take 1-2 subject tests to raise your chances even more.

Thank you for your advice!
Do you happen to know if nyu’s steinhardt for studio art is difficult to get into?

I’m sorry, but I do not know much about NYU Steinhardt. I do know, however, that you need to complete the artistic requirements if you are applying there. I think they want you to send a portfolio of your work, but I’m not exactly sure of the details.
