<p>Bird…CAP usually wants to yield a class of about 64. The number they accept to yield that may change year to year depending on the previous year’s yield. Four years ago, when my D applied, they took 80 hoping that 64 would come but those who got the offer wanted to come and so the class was larger than they were seeking. I believe in subsequent years, they have been accepting less than 80 to get the 64 since the yields seem to be high. But you would have to ask Tisch to get an accurate update on that but that is what I think…I predict they will accept less than 80 to get 64. Maybe 70? I don’t truly know but it won’t be as high as 80. </p>
<p>I know that generally speaking in TISCH Drama…not specifically CAP only…a transfer student may enter as a sophomore in terms of their year in college (thus have to complete three years of college) but enter the studio as a first year and then they do three years of studio. So, conceivably, one could enter NYU with soph standing but be in the freshman studio class but graduate in three years. I know my D’s friend did that as a transfer into Playwrights. </p>
<p>But again, I do not work for Tisch and am merely a Tisch parent and I would not want to give you misinformation and so I truly hope you will ask these questions directly of Tisch.</p>
