NYU physics undergraduate

I doubt even NYU knows what it is for physics, as you don’t apply to CAS by major. You declare your major sometime during your first 2 years. On your app you put down your intended major, but it is not binding in the slightest (though your first advisor is likely to be from that department).

CAS middle 50% SAT is 650-730 EWR / 640-760 M. 72% in top 10% of their class, 100% in top 25% (but not all schools report that number). 41% have 3.75 or better; 28% 3.5-3.74; 19% 3.25-3.49.
