tawny, academically you have the stats to be in contention. F/Tv in Tisch is probably the one Tisch department where there is some ‘flexibility’ in academic stats anyway. Work on your portfolio and make sure it’s as good as you can possibly do, and then hope for the best. :)

I will comment, though, since you mentioned that you couldn’t go to the summer program because financial aid was a concern, that the same problem may be an issue for you now, too. NYU is notoriously stingy with financial aid, and of the NYU colleges, Tisch probably offers less than any other. Not only that but Tisch is the most expensive of all the NYU colleges so just thought I’d mention that. The average financial aid award at NYU is roughly 18,000-19,000. When you figure that a year at Tisch is going to cost you roughly 45,000, that’s quite a gap.
