anything but "chances": short answers to short questions

<p>hey, i read thru this thread and i noticed that apparently the top 5% of the applicant pool receive merit scholarships.</p>

<p>how do they determine who’s in the top 5%? do they do it by SAT or GPA ranking? (i don’t see how they can do it by GPA tho b/c some schools are easier to get A’s than others).</p>

<p>NICE thank you MAP</p>

<p>one more question:: i applied to scps, can i get LSPed too?</p>

<p>DO you think less people will be applying to stern because of the rough economy today?</p>

<p>Okay, well this is an application question. If I submit an extremely impressive award I got AFTER the ED deadline, do you think that will show extra interest/determination or just be annoying and unnecessary?</p>

<p>MAP is there anything you can tell me about the anthropology program?</p>

<p>@really</p>

<p>i have no idea whether SCPS LSP’d people.</p>

<p>@hello</p>

<p>i don’t want to give you the wrong answer. maybe ask your HS counselor?</p>

<p>@dmarie </p>

<p>my roommate says that the department is really into cultural anthropology. she’s an anthropology major, studio art minor. the department is small, but she feels like she really gets to know the professors. if you’re into archeology, she says that you might not want to go to NYU, because they only have one or two classes like that. </p>

<p>dickinson college in PA</p>

<p>yes, SCPS applicants can get lsp’d - i believe every school can, except stern and nursing. i’ve definitely met lsp students headed toward cas, steinhardt, gallatin, tisch, and scps. not sure if the social work school does lsp or not.</p>

<p>How does NYU review applications?</p>

<p>Meaning, do they look them over in the order they get them or do they wait until after the deadline, sort them alphabetically, and then review each applicant?</p>

<p>I’m asking because I don’t want to send in my RD app right before the deadline if I can help it.</p>

<p>SO I got in :D. What do you NYU-folk have to say about which residence halls are better?</p>

<p>I’m thinking I will go abroad to London for LSP… Do you know anything about that program, or could you put me in contact with anyone who does?</p>

<p>@gitar</p>

<p>Hayden or Founder’s, hands down. since you’re ED, you get first pick for housing. those two halls are usually all ED people.</p>

<p>Will being a student who doesn’t need financial aid help me get in?</p>

<p>No, it won’t help you get in.</p>

<p>Is there anything you can tell me about how strong the History department? Also, is tehre any statistic that shows how many people go to nyu law grad school from nyu undergrad?</p>

<p>Are people who have been accepted/ rejected Early Decision applicants?</p>

<p>Or has NYU already sent out decisions for the Regular Decision applicants?</p>

<p>@marcus111: See if these hot, supple tidbits I dug up help clear things up for you at all.</p>

<p>“Notification Dates (when you will hear from us)
Freshman Early Decision: Mid-December
Freshman Regular Decision: April 1st”</p>

<p>they’re/we’re early decision. Not all of us have gotten our letters back yet, in fact most haven’t.</p>

<p>The deadline for RD is January 1st I think, so you guys probably wont be seeing anything till april like 000dep said.</p>

<p>Thanks missamericanpie.</p>

<p>Also, is the response conditional? And if so, what are the conditions?</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>
