<p>I want to transfer to NYU CAS in Spring 2009. I've completed 64 credits at a community college part time for four years now because I started a business w/ a partner. I want to go back to college and NYU is one of my top choices.</p>
<p>One problem: my high school stats were so dismal.</p>
<p>I'm a black male, 22 yrs old, high school GPA: 2.5 SAT 1000</p>
<p>College GPA 3.8, 64 credits.</p>
<p>In addition to working 50 hrs/ a week, I volunteer a lot.</p>
<p>Do I have a chance???</p>
<p>I don't think your HS grades will matter after four years and 64 credits.
Great college GPA; I'd expect you to be a competitive candidate at NYU.
You might lose some of your credits, as 64 is more than two years' worth.</p>
<p>Match and not safety because of your SAT score IMO. Raise it and will become a sure bet. CAS had around an 11% transfer acceptance rate this year..... I think. Somewhere around there anyway, and a counselor informed me that there was little difference in competitiveness between CAS and Stern. This initially surprised me, but NYU is a very popular school. Perhaps more than it's academic prestige and U.S. News ranking would warrant. I mean, it is New York City. People want to go there you know?</p>
