<p>UTAustin - reach oos

Emory - low reach, high match if apply ed
wharton - reach</p>

4

<p>aren’t Umich and UT easier than Stern and Emory? how UT and Umich seem to be reaches whereas stern/emory are matches?</p>

<p>Btw, Im planning on Stern ED.</p>

<p>anyone else :(</p>

<p>NYU Stern: Likely in if you ED. Just be wary of that because you won’t get much aid.
UMich: Likely In
Emory: Likely In
Wharton: Super High Reach, Likely Reject</p>

<p>I don’t need financial aid, so would it help my chances if I don’t check the box? I know noone official would say it can help your chances by being able to pay, but does it help?</p>

<p>NYU is need-blind, so whether or not you check financial aid won’t help or hurt you. In fact, if you check it and get in, you may get some aid at least. Anyways, be careful applying ED. If you get in, you’ll most likely be responsible for paying upwards of $50,000+ a year.</p>

<p>are you sure NYU is need blind? i tried to do some research on that, and a few people mentioned nyu being need blind, but it was nowhere published on their website. plus if there are two similar applicants, and one needs aid, whereas one doesnt, couldn’t they lean to the one who can pay</p>

<p>Yes, NYU is need blind. However, unlike many top schools that are need blind, NYU doesn’t meet your full financial need. Your application for aid and your application for admission go through two different offices.</p>
