<p>1st of all, welcome to CC- we are happy to answer questions and help 
You are correct that your grades are low for NYU, and Tisch is 50/50 audition and stats. If your test scores (ACT/SAT) are strong that can offset that a bit- but if you are serious about Tisch you need to work on your raising your grades. </p>
<p>Have you been in many shows? You mention 6th grade and some drama classes. That is not typical of students auditioning for a BFA program. I am wondering what makes you want to study acting- and what makes you think NYU is the place where you want to do it? (not saying anything is wrong, just trying to get a greater understanding) You should know that most BFA programs focus very intensively on theatre, there is often not much time for all of the interests you mention. NYU is slightly unique as it is a split between academic and artistic classes, but still, the balance is on drama. If you are interested in pursuing a variety of interests - have you considered a BA in theatre? Many schools have wonderful programs that allow you to study, perform, and double major/minor, etch… That is often a greater challenge with a BFA. You mention tons of interests- and that is fantastic, but again, not entirely typical for BFA kids- they are all art all the time Have you been investigating the type of program where you feel you might be most successful? What is it about NYU that you like?</p>
<p>Lots of questions I know, just trying to get a little more pertinent info in order to give effective advice</p>
