Essays: For the common app I wrote about how taking care of foster kids has affected me and how living with people of other ethnicities has shaped my life and beliefs; for the supplement- I answered the prompt. I would say I did a good job at expressing my interest in NYU and how I could add to the community.
Recommendations: my teachers love me, so I would assume they wrote nicely about me.
Ethnicity: white
Gender: female
I will chance back, so please match me. I can provide other info. Thanks! I know I will know the decision soon, but I am nervous.
I am also Senior Class Treasurer if that counts for anything.
I would say accepted! The only thing that seems weak on your application is your ACT, but, if I remember correctly, it isn’t too far off from NYU’s middle 50%. Good luck!
i think you will get in
Your 28 ACT is right at the 25% line for NYU. Your grades are good though. You definitely have a chance, but I could see you getting denied too. No clear picture for me. Good luck.
