If you mean the email thing it only works for Stern applicants because they have a special email extenstion. No normal nyu emails other than Stern have been activated for use yet.

Honestly, at this point it’s messy, I think it’s too soon to say if they’re good or bad indicators and I feel like NYU would try to fix any clues they can that were present last year.

Yeah that’s true. What if they flipped it all so the indicators were opposite !?! Honestly though this waiting really sucks

I would assume an even split, but also based on the college. If you look, the “Other” colleges is just almost entirely one box because, I would assume, the applications under this category are under less scrutiny than say CAS or Stern.
There’s an interesting read online about how top colleges read your application [just google “How Colleges Read Your Application: A 4 Step Process” to read it] and one of the colleges in the article is NYU. Once again there’s a lot of factors that go into this, such as the speed at which applications were read/debated over this year, if they were backlogged, if there’s some trouble with financial aid, ect. However, if I were to guess, the decisions being made now means you weren’t good enough to automatically accept, but you weren’t bad enough to immediately reject and decline. This may cause a rift in the committee and lead to a split, which causes a longer decision. It may also simply be your application were one of the last ones to be read, in comparison to the amount of applications received, so it simply takes a while to loop back and finalize their decision.
I mean either that or technical issues lmao (once again, this info relies on the assumption that one box = a decision being made for you, which may not always be the case)

What do you guys think the acceptance rate is for liberal studies core ED?
I’d say 60-70% based on like the 40% overall acceptance rate
20-30% i think based on it’s 16% overall acceptance rate

I did not. I’ll do it after school
hey have any of you heard about the update to financial aid? there’s a couple things that say nyu updated their policies to meet 100% of need-based financial aid, but they also directly state the website hasn’t been updated to say this (and obviously the website says they do not meet 100% of need-based aid). my family honestly can’t really afford nyu without a big enough financial package so i’ve been trying to read up on this … i applied ed because everyone told me to, including my parents lmao…while also saying we couldn’t afford it. so. kinda a bad decision. i need to decline the offer if i don’t get enough aid so i was wondering if anyone else had heard about the change in policies
People who didn’t apply to stern- do you think the email indicator is a correct? It seemed to work for everyone this year
Thanks for sharing. I did not apply to stern, only wanted to see if email trick is an indicator
I do have an email in the profile that ends with @nyu; but when I verify this account, Google says it is an invalid account lol.

That’s not the hack, the hack is netid@stern.nyu.edu not just nyu.edu. The email in NYU home isn’t accurate
