Can anyone tell me about the LSP at NYU and if it is actually easier to get into? I’m hoping to get into CAS, but I feel like I have a better chance at LSP
I made this stupid mistake of sending my ACT scores to NYU and indicating that I would send my SAT scores and IB scores. Is that alright?
@philosophists123 - I think you have a really good change at acceptance at NYU with your stats, ECs, sports and also first generation. Good luck to you!
@FPAparent thanks so much. I did not indicate that I am a first generation college student in either of my essays, but I did say on the common app that my parents highest education was a high school diploma. Will colleges know that I am a first generation student?
From the NYU Admissions twitter on decisions, “They’re coming. Only a few more days!”
I hope their definition of a few more days is actually a few more days and not 10 days or something.
They immediately followed up with a tweet that decisions come out on April 1. 
Apparently NYU just tro11ed us
They’re still probably gonna move the decisions forward a day or two, but they haven’t officially made that announcement yet so they’re gonna say April 1 until they do.
@philosphists123 You have a good shot, and yes, they will know you are 1st generation.
@bestfreshstart NYU is NOT test optional.
They have NOT followed up saying that the decisions will come out on the 1 april? they said that only before they announced that they will be out “in a few days”? AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE?
@SternAspirations they replied to someone’s tweet that it would be April 1. However, they did the same thing last year and ended up moving the decision release up a day, but they waited to announce it until 2 days before decisions went out.
Are all scholarships out?
@PrettyCool No, not even close. The only scholarships that have already come out are MLK Scholars and CAS Dean’s Scholars. The only reason these come out early is so that these kids have time to make plans to come to scholars weekend. There are still plenty of scholarships that will go out with decisions and financial aid packages.
@getaclucy Thank you so much for the reply!! How do you know all of this? Also, is the rumor true regarding the NYU housing? How can I even check?
@PrettyCool I know this because this is how they’ve done it every year, and I know plenty of people who have been given scholarships with their financial aid packages. There are very few scholarships that go out early. You can look on the scholarship section of the NYU website to see some of the other scholarships they award.
As for the NYU housing portal, I’m not sure exactly which rumor you are talking about, but from my understanding the only change that might mean anything is the change from non-renewable undergraduate to freshman. I really wouldn’t worry about it too much though. Plenty of people have gotten in without ever seeing that change in their profile, and even if you do get that particular change, you likely wouldn’t receive it until the day decisions come out. If you’re really interested in checking you can go to housing.nyu.edu but try not to concentrate on all these rumors because they’ll just end up making you crazy.
@SternAspirations My twitter feed showed the April 1 tweet response being tweeted several minutes after that “in a few days” twitter response. Don’t kill the messenger lol.
@kibbles haha thanks!
