@imafantana: **Would you mind sharing some of your ECs, SAT scores, GPA, etc…
just so I can compare it to my own chances?

Also… was NYU good/bad at giving you financial aid if you need it?

thanks**

GPA: 4.0 UW
Rank: Top 1%
SAT: 780 M/720 CR/800 W
EC: Basic glut of clubs with extensive volunteering, 10+ years of an instrument, and a few leadership positions.

Trust me, you need nowhere near those numbers to get in; a lot of my friends scored around a 2100, etc.

Financial aid depends on the person getting it, tbh. For me, it was merit/need, but I’ve heard they’ve been moving it over to solely need. I pretty much only have to pay around a few grand a year.
