<p>I just got in to NYU's presidential honors program with a really nice scholarship, but I was wondering can they drop you from that program into the regular program before you even begin if you are doing really badly? I'm really worried because I think I might be getting a C in AP Stats for the final year grade now, and on my transcript I had an A in it. NYU is my top school but there is no way I can go without the money they gave me for being in the program. I'm really worried. Plus my other grades have all fallen a little bit (not as far, but like A- to B+).</p>
<p>Based on other posts I've read, a C isn't too bad, and B's are definitely fine. I highly doubt they'd rescind you because of one C. But you could call...?</p>
<p>And I got a Deans Scholar thing (not sure if that's the same deal or not), but how are such merit scholarships added on top of your EFC?</p>
<p>Like, if your EFC is $20,000 and you get a $25,000 scholarship, what happens? Is it deducted from loans? Do you still have to take out loans to pay your $20,000? Does not compute X_X</p>
<p>Thats what I got too, the D.E.A.N. thing. I was wondering about that though, do we still get financial aid on top of the $25,000? They probably take that into account though, so if the total cost is close to $50,000 they'll still have you pay the other $20,000.</p>
<p>Just as long as they don't take away the money for my few crappy last term grades I'm happy. I'm so excited, I really wanted to go to NYU, but I never imagined I'd be able to because they're known for not giving out a lot of money.</p>
<p>That's lame, lol. My parents can help $5,000 and I got $3500 for my first year in outside scholarships... so that leaves $11,500... blah. Bailout! haha.</p>
<p>Yea, its not too bad though considering.</p>
<p>Does anyone else know about being kicked out of the DEAN program though before even arriving? I'm not worried about having the entire acceptance resinded, but I am a little nervous about having the scholarship taken away. Especially because right now I am (pathetically) hoping for a C. Arrr. Stupid stats. Maybe they won't care so much about math? </p>
<p>Sorry, I know I'm kind of a worrywart lol</p>
