<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I’ve applied to NYU as an International transfer student for fall 2011.
When do we find out the decision?</p>
<p>k e e n</p>
<p>I checked Albert and now my hs transcript is checked off, but not my standardized test scores, which was sent electronically. Should I even bother calling to ensure it’s there? They did say my app is complete yesterday though.</p>
<p>@GiantMidget –> my blackberry has been going crazy with e-mails from cc. Its little light never seems to stop blinking.</p>
<p>@bellatheball –> my scores were the last to show up on my page for NYU and a different school even though they were electronically sent.</p>
<p>Accepted! CAS :)</p>
<p>@KingSundru –> Congrats! What is your intended major for cas? Also would you mind posting your stats?</p>
<p>CAS - American And English Literature
Stats:
College transferring from: Oakland University
Entering as: Junior (Probably, depending on which classes get accepted from current semester)
GPA: 3.5
Credits completed: 44 (Most of these are one step below capstone courses)
Credits in progress: 16 “”</p>
<p>Subjective:
ECs listed on app: Japan Club, Student Writing Group which published a Literary Journal (I co-founded the club and serve as treasurer), Alpha Lambda Delta (Honors Society), and Sigma Tau Delta (English Honor Society).
Job/Work Experience: Five years at a telecommunications company, 6 months as an editor/proofreader for a company, Tutor at my old highschool, and Book reviewer for newpages.com
Essays (subject and responses): I wrote essays focusing heavily on what made me different from other people and why I would be a good fit for the university.
Letters of Recommendation: Stellar Recs - they let me read them before-hand to make sure that they had done the correctly.
Other: Academic Rigor - very very high. Highest level English Class every semester. Calculus 2. Biochemistry. Other random fun/hard classes.
Comments: 33 ACT and 2100+ on SAT, HS GPA = 3.5 - Graduated with Honor from HS. Bronze Award in Latin competition. Runner-up in short story competition. Graduated with honory pins in 7 fields in HS. Swim Team in HS. Other random stuff I’m probably forgetting.</p>
<p>Hey King,</p>
<p>When did you apply?</p>
<p>Does anyone know if people have received rejections?</p>
<p>King, congrats!</p>
<ol>
<li><p>What was the date you must respond by?</p></li>
<li><p>Did they tell you what transfer credit you will get?</p></li>
<li><p>Have you figured out, or do they tell you, which MAP courses you must take?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>called the undergraduate admission office today to ask the status of my “missing transcripts” and the lady working their does not seem very happy. why the **** shes working there… i dont know. NYU is laggin’ big time!</p>
<p>I’m assuming this is another day where the majority aren’t receiving their letters. I hate this anticipation.</p>
<p>Hey everyone,
I’ve been looking at this thread for a while now but never posted, as I am looking to transfer to Steinhardt MCC. I haven’t really seen anyone get accepted there yet, I’ve mostly seen CAS and Gallatin acceptances and I’m just so anxious that I called today to find out what was going on. The lady I spoke to said that we should be hearing back between the end of this week and beginning of next. I hope that’s true because I really don’t want to wait anymore… I submitted my application by early Feb so it’s annoying that they don’t give priority to early applicants. She said it was still “under review,” what does that even mean?</p>
<p>Only Steinhardt kids will be hearing back then? or does that apply to everyone?</p>
<p>@thegreatperhaps: haha I know the wait’s killing me too…they said the same thing last week that we’ll be hearing this week or next week so I think we should just try not to hold our breath. In my opinion, I think they are just giving estimated answers to us now (although I don’t think it’s wrong, we’ll just have to wait to see when the result comes out) because they are tired of answering the same question over and over again :p</p>
<p>@thegreatperhaps: I applied to MCC as well!</p>
<p>This thread is usually so active, but there seem to be tumbleweeds rolling around these last two days. COME ON NYU!</p>
<p>^I guess it’s because its finals week for a lot of us.</p>
<p>Also, I’m not sure what else there is left to say, most people are just waiting to hear back.</p>
<p>I would like to hear more discussion among the CAS applicants as to how problematic the Morse (gen ed) requirements are. So far football and I are the only ones troubled by this.</p>
<p>I thought about that earlier, Kayf. I am a bit intimidated by it, but I think that transfer credits will work out fine. At my current school, Fordham University, there is a MUCH bigger core that carries us throughout the four years. NYU’s MAP is designed to only last two, leaving students junior + senior year to knock out their program.</p>
<p>Either way, I am sure NYU will be accommodating in terms of credit transfers. If there were only going to transfer your credits as electives, they wouldn’t have bothered to accept you.</p>
