Will I be considered for my alternate school?

In November, I applied to NYU Stern as my first choice. However, while Stern is my top school, they still gave me the option to apply to a different school. I chose CAS as my alternate school if I were to get denied by Stern. I love NYU more than any other school in particular. I’m just nervous that I should have applied to CAS as my first choice. Is it anyway possible that they would still consider me for CAS if I am rejected at Stern? Here are my stats

GPA: 4.5 (weighted) and 4.0 (weighted)
ACT: 30
SAT: Didn’t take it
Essays: I would say my common app easy is the better of the two, but my Why NYU essay is still very unique. I’m really proud of both of them.
Extracurriculars: I’m very involved and hold around 5 officer positions.

I’ve seen conflicting answers on cc threads. Some say they won’t consider me for CAS, and others say there is chance. Could somebody tell me what the real answer is? Thank you so much.
