waitlisted CAS for neuro

Is anyone scared/less interested because of the vagrant/encampment/ drug addict problems near NYU currently? Saw the viral tiktok videos about random assaults and they are kinda scary.

wl for tandon civil engineering!

definitely something to consider

I was at NYU campus a few weeks ago. Yes, I saw the scary videos as well, but, I know NY quite well and things like that can happen to anyone. You just need to have high awareness in your surroundings. There are many bums in the city and in NYU area. Some bums would not like NYU students especially girls. So always be careful and have high awareness, but in reality, it is not like a warzone at all and I don’t think it is that dangerous. They had high security in Washington Square area and at the Gould plaza and I felt safe.

At some point are you told you are not getting off the waitlist or do you just hang out potentially waiting all summer for last minute acceptance?

@neznaena In past the vast majority of WL is finished by the end of May. After that it is just one-off acceptances. Technically, yes…you can potentially hang out all summer waiting…but realistically if ur not admitted by the end of May, the chances are remote.

Did everyone get the email from NYU about an hour ago thanking them for being patient while waiting on the waitlist?

i think schools usually announce when they have filled their class…but it could definitely stretch into the summer
