ACT of 24

is it at all possible to get in with a ACT of 24?? Say the rest of my application is good but just the score is holding me back

That score is well below the 25th percentile. It is fine to apply to a reach school so give it a shot – but I’d imagine that something would have to be pretty compelling in the rest of your application for you to be accepted.

@happy1 What about a compelling essay and really good grades?? Plus extracurriculars like working and volunteer hours

Looks like you already applied. It is a big reach with your ACT and you have to wait and see. http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/new-york-university/2042662-chance-me.html#latest

@happy1 Hoping for the best. Thanks though

You never know! Good luck!!
