New York University Early Decision Class of 2030 Official Thread

Also do we all have Fall 2026 available on housing portal?

im a US Dual Citizen, I live and attend school in Palestine tho. I have a 4.0 UW Gpa(my school doesnt do weighted). I went test optional. My school also doesnt offer any AP classes but I self studied 2 AP exams(bio and micro, got 5 and a 4). Im also in the top 5% of my class. Gotten honor roll awards throughout highschool. As you might know, where I live palestine is pretty disadvantaged so we dont get that much oppertunities for extracirriculars but I have started a fundraiser that raised 3000$ for a humanitarian cause, I also organized an initiative (BDS) that helped with what my country is going through right now. Im also in the training team for an international Model United Nations conference. I also participated in 7 model united nations conferences, winning awards in 4 of them and chairing in 2. Played basketball for aboout 4 years of my highschool, elected class rep for freshman, sophmore, and senior years, attended a leadership program with georgetown uni and the harvard pre college program. Id say my essays are pretty strong, my common app essay talks about numbers and how theyve related to every aspect of my life, and how that made me want to persue accounting. And my nyu supplamental talks about how I never let me living in a colonized area affect my bridge building oppertunities. My Rec letters are very strong and all mention about how ive always been involved in my community and a role model for the students with me. I also have straight As all throughout highschool. And we have this exam called the CLEP exam which is out of 80, i got a 74/80 on both clep bio and clep pre calc

I hope NYU takes into consideration my school not offering APs, im really scared

Damn I’d be very surprised if you don’t get in inspiring af. U go to school in West Bank I imagine?

I do! Thankk u ive been feeling very anxious so I really appreciate it

If NYU doesn’t accept you idk what they want lol

Thank you!! which school u applying to

CAS wbu

stern, which is why im scared lol

what r ur stats?

I am in the UK so I got 4 A* predicted grades for A-level and GCSEs which were 999998887, ECs I think are pretty good I am executive vice president of a student financial education council which is international, i also had internships with UK elected officials, and own a couple orgs. i havent seen my recs so idk how good they are but hopefully they are, my essays are great apparently according to my counselor.

are you full pay or requesting aid?

Oh damnn the internships thats impressive, I think you have a really good shottt. I am requesting aid, easier as a US citizen since I also applied for FAFSA. Wbu?

im not sadly as it rlly disadvantages ur application as an intl

Its good tho it increases ur chances of getting in

true, im just praying atp 7 hours to go :sob:

How many of you indicated a willingness to go to the Liberal Studies Program FYA as a second option? I’m guessing London, Florence, Spain then DC is the most popular order but curious if I’m way off base. Maybe we have a lot of public policy/political science people out there and some may not wish to start abroad.

How do you know that since nobody can click it yet.

no i have no applications available

no. i have no applications available

wait what does everyone see on the housing portal?
