<p>Here we go… Another day on the waiting game!</p>
<p>I was dreaming I got into NYU, but they say dreams mean the opposite of what happen… ew I’m afraid (and paranoic, too! Haha)</p>
<p>Turned down NYU Gallatin today…</p>
<p>I feel they have “yes applicants” who they accept right away, “not a fit applicants” who get reject earlier, and “maybe applicants” who are kept waiting until they make a decision… Now for the mid-term, I’m not sure what it means to be asked for one or not! Hope we get more answers on Thursday…
And it seems a 4.0 or thoudands of ECs doesn’t guarantee admission, so nobody really knows what NYU is looking for…</p>
<p>@123amb how do I join the group without an NYU email?</p>
<p>@lexieam why did u turn it down? Also thanks maybe ill be offered your spot now lol</p>
<p>@megs37 I don’t think you can. I’m pretty sure if you’ve gotten accepted, and you’ve accepted the offer, you can set up your email address from NYUHome. It would be your “NetID”@nyu.edu.</p>

<p>I got accepted a week ago yet I still have not received word on financial aid.</p>
<p>I called the financial aid office yesterday and the guy I spoke to said something along the lines of ‘we have all of your materials’ and ‘we are still putting together an award package for you’.</p>
<p>Im not sure whether to interpret this as a good or bad thing…but once I know this information…hopefully I’ll be of help to those who are still waiting for there decision :)</p>
<p>Guys vanderbilt or nyu?? I cant make up my mind!!! For both of these schools ingot accepted as econ major</p>
<p>Hey guys! I’ve been monitoring this thread for a long time, so I thought i’d give an update - I’ve been accepted to CAS as of 9:06 AM! Comparative literature. Here are my statistics:
Current School: Oxford College of Emory Univ.
Entering as: Sophomore
College GPA: 3.859 first semester, 3.9 on midterm report
H/S GPA: ~3.5 (10 AP courses though, otherwise very unimpressive)
SAT: 2140/1420
LORs: 3, all from excellent professors who enjoyed having me as a student.
Hooks: Lots of personal growth, wrote an essay about how ****ed up my family life, etc. is and how a death of a friend has really turned my viewpoint on life around. They seemed to have liked it. It went into the additional information section on the Common App. Otherwise, none.
LOR: 3, all from professors who respected and enjoyed having me as a student.</p>
<p>Nothing changed on my portal until after the decision was made. I now have the 2014 box under FA, etc. but no reward listed. If anyone has any questions I’ll be on here for a while. If this is incomplete, feel free to ask - I had my wisdom teeth removed fourteen hours ago and I’m a bit off still.</p>
<p>I just got rejected. To be honest, I don’t understand this decision.
In HS I got 3.5, and in college I got 3.8. My recommendation was very good and I had good extracurricular activities. I applied to NYU Steinhardt.</p>
<p>blueeeish, from all the six schools I applied to, I think NYU is the most unpredictable one haha sometimes people have amazing stats are rejected, or the other way around… it is such a mystery how they choose applicants</p>
<p>It may also depend on the type of school you’re transferring from. For example, Columbia gives preference to those transferring from top 50 schools (check out the thread if you must)</p>

Congrats!
A couple quick questions…
- So your financial aid displayed the year 2013?
- At what point did they contact you for a midterm report? A couple weeks after you applied?</p>
<p>@Rain202
Thank you!
- No. It stated that there was no information available / no access / whatever the generic thing is. Said it from day 1, never any change to it until after my acceptance.
- I sent in a mid-term report in April. They never requested one of me.</p>
<p>Yeah…I am just really down because NYU has the highest transfer acceptance rate out of all the schools I applied to. I haven’t heard from other schools yet, but NYU decision is just making me lose all the hopes haha Anyway congrats to all of those who were accepted!</p>
<p>blueeeish, I’m feeling hopeless about NYU as well =/ Tuesdays and Thursdays go on and no decisions…</p>
<p>Stern is killing me</p>
<p>So they have accepted students to NYU stern? I have a student who told me a guy got accepted to stern already and I was like bs, I’m here dying for a decision. I don’t know his HS grades, but he is in his second year at a CC taking honors calculus I. ***? I’m first year and I’m taking honors calculus II. Honestly I’m a better fit compare to him. Not to be cocky, but his extracurricular is trash compare to mine. I volunteer for hurricane sandy for months down at NYC Brooklyn. What did he do? Nothing. Sorry about raging here, but this wait is killing me.</p>
<p>I don’t think stern has given out any decisions yet … I mean at least one of us would have heard by now. I can’t wait to find out … I applied as a transfer to stern for finance with a 3.91 GPA , great essays , great EC and even with that idk what to expect from Stern.</p>
<p>For those who have been accepted, where do we send our final transcripts for Transfer Credit purposes?</p>
