I personally did not apply to NYU Stern or even just NYU, so I am just basing this off of my general knowledge of NYU and my friends’ NYU decisions. From what I have seen so far, NYU doesn’t seem that difficult to get into. I have a friend who applied to NYU and was admitted but was denied at Binghamton SUNY and Northeastern University (both less selective colleges in my opinion). (Just for reference, she had high 80s and around a 2000 SAT but she applied to NYU CAS not NYU Stern).
I believe that NYU Stern is much more competitive than just NYU CAS. I think you should seek to improve your gpa and SAT score. If not, you should look into NYU’s HEOP program. I believe it is for NY residents only though, but it is for those who are academically and economically challenged. (Low grades, poor). I have a friend who got into NYU Stern through HEOP. She had around a 90 average (not sure what that equates to on a 4.0 scale) and mid 1900s SAT. This might be a good option for you. I’m not sure how you apply to it though…but a quick google search will help.
