<p>Since you have more than 30 credits, i dont even think they use your HS or SAT records into the admission decision. Good luck!</p>
<p>4 Days until application is officially due, and about 10 days until first decisions arrive for the Spring 2009 semester. IM SO NERVOUS AND EXCITED!</p>
<p>I sent in my application for admission last week! Today I received a "letter" from NYU. It is just requesting me to visit NYU</a> > Undergraduate Admissions to find out is really NYU right for me.
I don't need to find out. My mind and heart is set on NYU (dying to get into NYU). I AM ALSO SO EXCITED AND NERVOUS TO FIND OUT THE DECISION!</p>
<p>I am so obsessed with NYU! The words “New York University” printed on the letter in purple are so “eye catching” and “appealing”!</p>
<p>ahh you guys are making me more nervous (I lied, it's not humanely possible for me to be more nervous)...ugh I havent finished yet, but I'm almost there!!</p>
<p>I don't know what I'll do if I don't get in either. I had a dream last night I was an admissions counselor and I accepted myself...I woke up so happy!</p>
<p>haha</p>
<p>I had a dream this past April that I was admitted into Syracuse, but I don't want to go there!</p>
<p>So exciting!!!!! GOOD LUCK
any last q's PM</p>
<p>When are the decisions to be released? Also do people who got their applications last week or a month ago have a significant advantage over people like me who got their application in right before the deadline?</p>
<p>I called and asked about that also. They said no it is all the same no matter when you submit it.</p>
<p>Damn I turned mine in on September 20. I need a response quickly because I have until November 30th to cancel on some study abroad semester program with another school without being charged 1000 bucks..</p>
<p>You guys think they'll be in by then?</p>
<p>Call them maybe next week and let them know your deadline.</p>
<p>You don't think they'll shoot me or kill my app, though? haha</p>
<p>I don't know...I'm too scared to call and then hear I got rejected from a person...I'd like the only people to know I was rejected is me, the admissions officer, and the mailman who delivers the letter haha</p>
<p>I had the same concern</p>
<p>I called NYU and they said the same thing; that those who submitted it a month ago hold no advantage over those submitting it at the deadline.</p>
<p>However I asked the guy who helped me with my application who does this stuff for a living, he said it did matter. It usually takes a week to process the application, to get all the associated materials (sat scores, recs., etc.) together in a folder with your application. When they start reviewing (I guess on November 1st) the applications who got in earlier and are already processed will have a better shot. If early on there are, say, 200 spots for transfers they may willing to let in an applicant they would not let in a couple weeks later when there are only 10 spots open...if that makes sense</p>
<p>I submitted it only a few days before the deadline so I'm hoping they process my quickly....ugh</p>
<p>I called them on Friday and they told me that admission decisions will be released around mid- December. That is still a month away from now!</p>
<p>Online it says "Early Mid November".</p>
<p>hmmm</p>
<p>Did you mean to say that if you submit it earlier you have a better show and "they may [not be] willing to let in an applicant they would not let in a couple weeks later when there are only 10 spots open"</p>
<p>if so, then I completely agree with you because I think the earlier they get the application the better because after a while they would have read a ton of apps that probably sound just like yours.</p>
<p>did you guys get a confirmation email right after you submitted your app? mine says submitted on embark but i havent gotten any email yet.</p>
<p>december? ugh...i dont know how that could be, it says early-mid november on the website. can anybody confirm this?</p>
<p>the website said that you are to recieve 4 emails in regard to your application...the second and third emails were sent pretty much right after i submitted my app. online...the 4th email takes a week or two to come after the application is processed</p>
<p>cherrybomb-</p>
<p>i am confused with the logic of your sentence, it appears you have added multiple negatives to mine...i do think however we are on the same page</p>
<p>it is not so much that they get "tired" of reading applications, they are professionals...it is just that as the admission process winds down, if there are only 5 or 10 spots open and 100 or so available transfers, they will obviously be a lot more selective than earlier on in the admissions process</p>
<p>right.</p>
<p>sorry it was late when i wrote that.</p>
<p>but i agree, i'm applying for fall 2009 and i plan on sending in my app on jan 2 and having my high school stuff, transcripts, etc. in by mid-late jan....everyone post your stats its nice to see what everyone had and how it affected them getting in.</p>
<p>p.s. i think a 10% acceptance rate sounds low, i believe they around 21%</p>
