Chance me for NYU? Puhhhh-lease :3

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>NYU is like the only school that, I feel would, truly liberate me. I've been growing up an a less than advantageous town: Elizabeth, NJ. And I'm a hispanic girl (hoping these factors play a role in their decision process!) I applied ED I because I heard it significantly boosts chances of admission, plus I'm very boarderline -_-</p>

<p>SAT's I: CR: 640 M: 580 W: 620 (Superscored, tried to bring up Math but got the SAME score twice -____-)
SAT's II: 610 Literaure 660 U.S. History
AP's: 4 Eng. Lang., 4 U.S. History, 5 Spanish Lang. (AP Scholar)
AP's this year? - Lit., Cal., Bio., Art History (Sent a transcript w all A's in 8])
GPA: 3.8003 Weighted, ranked top 5% of class.</p>

<p>EC's:
-Treasurer of City wide Key Club (National Org.)
-Editor In Cheif of School Paper (for 2 years, as long as its been running)
-Vice President of Green Team (Associated w Groundworks Elizabeth, a city wide org.)
-"Honor" in the National Forensics League
-Class Representative for my School's Student Gov
-National Honors Society
-JV/Varsity Volleyball for Sophomoe and Junior year
-Volunteer at the Animal Shelter
-Model at Abercrombie & Fitch</p>

<p>Essay?
-Did "topic of my choice." I was super creative and wrote about Stuart Little and reinventing a family unit.</p>

<p>-Short Answers: Strong, I mentioned my hispanic-ness :]</p>

<p>ALSO I was accepted to NYU Precollege, but couldnt go cus I couldnt pay for it :l (I included that!)</p>

<p>I applied for CAS in Journalism and wish to double major in poly sci. I'm scared because its the only school I want to go to :/ Help?</p>

<p>If I am not mistaken NYU let you submit 3 AP test instated of a standardized test. It might be to your adv. to look into it.</p>

4

<p>But the third AP would have to be non-language ^</p>

5

<p>Yes, I know that ^ But do you guys have any idea on my admissions chance?</p>

<p>What is your UW GPA? That’s what is important here (weighted is nice but it doesn’t mean much). Your SAT scores are a decent amount under the NYU average but your AP scores are pretty impressive. Your ECs are great – especially so for your major.</p>

<p>I applied to CAS ED1 for Journalism as well (<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1240598-ea-ed-apps-chance-me-nyu-northeastern-uconn-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1240598-ea-ed-apps-chance-me-nyu-northeastern-uconn-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;) so I don’t feel too fit chancing you but I’d say it’s a low reach. ED and being an URM will help… you have a chance but it’s really up in the air. </p>

<p>I’d love to see us both get in! Good luck.</p>

<p>You have a shot because you are an URM, but your scores are low.</p>

<p>Overall, reach.</p>

<p>Wait, how are you going to afford NYU now? Hopefully you didn’t apply ED without being able to pay in full as NYU, as you know, has terrible aid!</p>

9

<p>I’ve lined up several scholarships, I attained alot of them because I’m a hispanic female. So, yeah.</p>

10

<p>Ended up getting in, btw.</p>

<p>Congratulations man! Just out of curiosity, what was your unweighted GPA? I am considering NYU. Thanks!</p>
