<p>I want to apply to CAS at NYU as a sociology major, by the way i am an African American female. does my major and ethnicity boost my chances at NYU, including all the other stuff (gpa, sats, ECs) which a good for nyu. if anyone knows the percentage of black people in the DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY, please share. thanks for reading</p>
<p>Your ethnicity gives you a boost.</p>
<p>Sociology is a relatively common major, so I can’t see applying as a sociology major giving you any boost.</p>
<p>you mean its a relatively common major at nyu right?</p>
