<p>I applied to Tisch so they might be more lenient about grades, but this is what mine were when I was accepted:</p>
<p>-3.789 GPA
-28 ACT
-GSA president, officer on band board; in GSA for four years, in band for four years, pep band for three, pit orchestra for two; NHS for 3 years
-At the time I applied I only had taken one AP–AP Chem–but got a 2 on the test.</p>
<p>I really had no intention of going to NYU when I applied because I was almost positive I wouldn’t be able to afford it even if I somehow got in, and once my admission packet came I was right, even with a pretty nice scholarship from Tisch. I just wanted to see if I could get in since Tisch and its Dramatic Writing program is such a talked about program. And NYU in general is one of those huge dream schools that people might just want to test their chances.</p>
