NYU RD 2023

@NYDreammom it seems mlk scholars hear early from what others here say,generally you get your financial award notification with your offer.

Anybody else get an email a few weeks back asking if you were still interested? Just asking in case it is one of those fabled “email indicators.”

@bigguy4u If you’re referring to the one that discusses whether you want to withdraw your application, then yes. That was a general email sent to all applicants to make sure that anyone who has already committed to another school isn’t still in their applicant pool.

Do you guys think a 39 predicted IB score is good enough for Stern?

I have really good EC’s and hopefully good recs too.

@Bluemarker i live in california

has anyone gotten anything in the way of scholarships? I know it’s nearly impossible for me to get it, but I kinda just want to know for sure that I didn’t so that I can move on :slight_smile:

I was emailing my admissions counselor about something, and she mentioned that decisions will be coming out at the end of this month. that’s all she said though

@colegirl530 who is your counselor?

@NJMAN2500 Ms. Emma Wen! She’s wonderful. I met her when she came to my school to talk about NYU

im so nervous for decisions

I’m so prepared for rejection lol

@Youngmis123 I would say on open category more like 35-45% based NYU GPA+Testing 25-75% ranges alone. ECs should glide you to 55-60%. First Genration (First to college) should take you up to 65-70%. Just my model of NYU.

So nervous… My GPA is a little low for NYU RD…
Applied CAS Biology with LSP secondary
UW GPA: 3.511
W GPA: 4.400
ACT: 34

Essays were meh, not terrible but not the greatest.
I talked about how I immigrated and made a new home, and how I’m looking forward to making a 3rd one at NYU.
Supplemental was about biology research opportunities, being able to play in NYU orchestras even though I’m not a music major, and what my cousin who attended thought of it.

My ECs revolved around band, which is also highlighted in my awards. Tri-M, NHS, Social Studies Honors, job
Will have taken 14 APs by May.
4, 4, 4, 3, 4, 5 so far on AP Exams.
Decent upward trend; 3.4 freshman year to 3.75 senior first sem.
Taking all AP classes this year

So nervous :frowning: looking through ED threads a bunch of people got in with my stats but were also rejected with my stats

Can anyone chance me please?

Intended Major: International Relations
SAT: 1300
GPA: 3.98UW/4.56W
Course-load: 5 APs (Human Geography, Environmental Science, US Gov/Pol, Art History, Psychology; all 3s or 4s), Full IB Diploma Candidate (HL English A, HL Spanish B, HL World History, SL Math, SL World Religions, SL Environmental Systems and Societies)
ECs: President of the county student union, founding officer of my school’s cultural diversity club, orchestra state champion, Spanish Honor Society President, started a penpal partnership between my school and a school in Panama, Spent Summer 2018 Abroad in Madrid to learn Spanish
Strong Essays (Common App one is actually weaker than the “Why NYU?” Essay, my NYU essay is the college essay in which I take the most pride in)

I am very nervous that my subpar SAT score and the fact that I applied for a seemingly-popular major will bring me down. Should I hold out a little hope or should I prepare for rejection?

wow, just realized cc doesn’t let users edit/delete posts. what a scummy website

@mitsuha6 A user can edit his/her own post within 15 minutes of posting it. He/she cannot, however, delete it. As for cc being a “scummy website,” it is my hands down favorite place to release my anxiety, converse with applicants similar to me, and get insight on strange portal changes/emails/decision dates.

Any strange portal changes recently??
