Hi all,

Recently, I have heard a lot about NYU from friends and colleagues. I am considering applying there as a CS major. Firstly, what is the reputation of CS at NYU?

Secondly, I was wondering if I should even consider applying with my stats.

Currently, I have:
GPA (UW): 3.64, UC Uncapped: 4.24, UC capped: 3.96.
APs: Calculus BC, Physics B, US History, Computer Science A (next year: Phys Mech/Eng, Stats, Spanish 5, Government, and Econ).
Honors: Chem, PreCalc, Spanish 4
SAT: 1530 superscored
ECs: Multiple Karate medals (couple golds), library volunteering (every summer), Karate Black Belt, USACO silver, perhaps a few summer jobs.

Is it worth it for me to apply? If not, what other schools do I stand a chance at?

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!
