<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I recently applied to Barnard University ED and got rejected. I am now shifting my focus to NYU, which is another of my top choices. Because NYU has an ED II option that is the same as the RD deadline, I am choosing ED to either the Liberal Studies school or the Arts and Colleges school.</p>
<p>The liberal studies school is much less competitive, but I feel like ACS is more geared towards my interests.</p>
<p>Can you "chance" me? I would like to know if I have a fair chance. </p>

<p>My common essay is pretty good and well written. I chose the environment topic but wrote is as a "metaphorical" place. I wrote it originally for a liberal arts school for Barnard, but my counselor assured me that NYU doesn't stress the essay too much and I dont need to change it.</p>
<p>My rec's are solid; my english and art teacher are writing them. My guidance counselor also probably wrote a good one. </p>
<p>My EC's are a little weak however. I don't have any positions of "leadership" really
-Volunteer Teacher in a religious institution. I volunteered there for all 4 years of high school and spent about 8 hours a week.
-I volunteered at a tutoring center in my junior year and was then offered a job position which i still have today. I work also about 8 hours per week.
-I am in the debate club in my high school and have been for 4 years. I won a long island competition, and placed 2nd.
-I am in Blue Key Club, a club that promotes breast cancer awareness. I participate in club walks, charity events, and donations to raise awareness. I have been in this sclub for 3 years.
-Yearbook club. I have been in this club for 2 years.
-I volunteered in a medical office in the summers of 10th, 11th and 12th grade. I interacted with patients, taking appointments and collecting medical history.
-I worked as an intern in the emergency room of a community hospital. I observed the way doctors interacted with patients, and hospital procedures.I was there for about 10 hours a week during my summers. </p>
<p>That's pretty much my application. I feel like my stats match NYU, but i'm worried that i will get rejected yet again. I still am torn between which school to apply to, and I'm hoping any of you can help me out?</p>
