wallahi foos

your identity esp if brought into your narrative in any meaningful way could play a significant role as an x factor or hook. To say it’d have no bearing on your application assumes it exists in a completely disconnected vacuum from literally everything else @american_psycho..

well that wasn’t what the question was tho. She just said she palestinian american with no other context bro. im def not tryna start beef in forums

I mean if they talk abt it in essays then ye it could be quite impactful if its just that context and nothing else then ye it doesnt change anything

no fr ESP NYU

how much does gpa matter for nyu?

as much as any other top college, good amount

no no beef at all bro just sharing thoughts on this.. i sort of assumed that’d be connected in some way if they mentioned it like that but i get what you mean fs

FGLI is a hook. NYU is quite serious about diversity in income levels as well as other factors, which is also why they use the HEOP program for NY residents. My daughter’s freshman roommate had a generous need-based award even in the days before the NYU promise. They don’t do merit anymore now that they meet need, but I also met someone whose kid had been offered a full ride to NYU (for context, this kid also got into MIT. The family was torn between the prestige of MIT and free undergrad. I don’t know what they ended up deciding.)

As an fyi, when they introduced the Promise they reduced the size of the freshman class to be able to give those attending more funding. So it is not meaningless.

Need-blind means they assess your application independently of the financial aid office so they don’t base decisions on need. They are however need-aware for internationals.

Yall im sooo nervousss
