NYU Freshman!!

<p>Hey, thanks for answering questions. I was wondering, due to it’s rep as not being too good with aid, if the students were unproportionally from upper class backgrounds? Also, from what you’ve seen, can great SAT scores (slightly above what would be the 75th percentile according to CB website) and a great junior year (straight As in a tough schedule) make up for “meh” years Sophomore and Freshman year which dragged down the GPA? Say, GPA a few ticks below 3.50 at a public school and SAT scores of ~2100?</p>

<p>E: Or, to simplify the damn thing, would you say NYU is more SAT-based than other schools? Also, any notes on the importance of extracurriculars to them?</p>
