How competitive is NYU?

Before you’re so willing to attack someone, step back for a moment and look at the bigger picture. Read my post history and tell me if I come across as the type of person to be snubbing people for their school. Hell, read my thread: <a href=“Current Stern Sophomore: Ask Me - New York University - College Confidential Forums”>Current Stern Sophomore: Ask Me - New York University - College Confidential Forums;

<p>I’ll be completely frank with you, I hate that NYU’s acceptance rate is so high. I hate that the endowment is so small that a significant factor in every decision is how it affects our fiscal performance. And to be honest, I don’t say I go to NYU. I say I go to Stern. We have a 12% acceptance rate.</p>

<p>I never said anything disparaging about Barnard myself, I simply stated what I see with my own eyes here in the city that other people say and do.</p>

<p>As for LSP, yes, everyone asks what school you’re in when you’re meeting people freshman year, so it comes out. The people who are shallow enough to think poorly of you for being in it will judge you, and you shouldn’t count them among your friends.</p>
