<p>daanngg! Why did you even post this?? You know you have a chance! That SAT is definitely enough for CAS..but you are right about GPA. If anything is going to hurt you at all, it's going to be your GPA, but I still think you have a great shot at CAS. You'll definitely get GSP for sure if you get rejected from CAS (which is unlikely in my opinion)</p>

<p>3.4 isn't that bad. I know people who had 3.2 and got into CAS.</p>

<p>Did they get into CAS or GSP? I'm wondering because I just got an email from NYU saying I got into GSP instead of CAS...</p>
