<p>You have a stronger resume than I did when I applied, and I got in to MCC. However, I was also applying for spring semester, so take this with a grain of salt. I think you are a competitive candidate.</p>

<p>Getting in is possible. Getting in with enough aid as a low incoome transfer is very unlikely.</p>

4

<p>NYU is terrible at giving aid. like atrocious. it gave me barely anything as a freshman so i doubt u will get any as a transfer</p>

<p>i would say try to talk with the school and see if they can extend the deadline for ya.</p>

<p>I know NYU is expensive. But, it’s like my dream school! I gotta get in.</p>

<p>I’ll just go into debt.</p>
