Hi everyone!
I too have applied ED1.
When does NYUAD send out CW invitations?

Hey @aravindsk & @ymaarrawi ,

Welcome!

I really don’t know about when they will inform us about CW. When I spoke with one of the representatives, she said about two weeks. So lets hope it comes soon!

Best of luck!

SAT december 5 tests are clashing with the dates though !

Will NYUAD consider your December scores?

Well, is NYU your only college choice? :open_mouth:
