Chances for CMU or NYU(CAS or Stern)

Chance Me / Match Me!

Hi all,

I am a senior right now who is wondering what the chances would be to get into CMU’s (MCS) or NYU (CAS or Stern). Thank you all in advance (Also, this is my first post and first time using this site, so please let me know if I’m doing anything wrong)

GPA UW: (I think around 3.4)
GPA W: (around 3.7)

I am unsure of my GPA because my school uses the 4.5 scale (as opposed to the 4.0 scale).
On that scale, my UW is 3.53 and my W:3.83

ACT: 33
SuperScore ACT: 34 (doesn’t matter because neither of these schools super score)

As for my EC,s I have interned at a technology company and won numerous state rewards in piano.

My essay should be strong but my RECs are meh.

FInally, I am working really hard my senior year to bring up my GPA, however I am afraid colleges won’t really look at it. I am currently taking five AP classes out of seven, and pulling straight As in all but AB CALC and AP Lit (both B+)

Once again, thank you all for reading this, I really appreciate it.

Your act is great, though your gpa is low. This will make both schools hard to get into, but not impossible. When you’re first semester senior year grades come in, have your updated transcript sent to the schools.
