Can I still get into NYU Tandon with B's?

I just finished freshman year and I am super disappointed with my final grade of an 85%. My final grades for each subject are listed below:

English: 80%
Geometry: 83%
Biology: 77%
Global Humanities: 82%
Chinese: 93%
Honors Band: 96%

Final Grade: 85%

Yes, they are not too good. However, my ultimate goal is to get into NYU Tandon for computer science. With my freshman grades though, I think my chance is very low now. I am really worried on whether I make it or not; is it still possible to get into the school? Or did I lose my chance?

You’re right that those grades won’t cut it , but the good news is that they don’t just look at your freshman grades. You still have 2 years to bring up your grades.

Expand your horizons beyond NYU. There are plenty of schools that can get you started on a great CS career.

CS is a very math heavy major. Are you sure that that is where your interests lie?
