<p>In terms of rigor, every school year essentially gets harder than the previous year, more AP's more college courses. I have taken classes such as Investment Analysis, Portfolio Management...classes typically offered on college level. </p>

<p>In both my common app essay and supplement essay I stressed passion for Business and economics in general. I have recommendations from teachers as well as people I have worked with corroborating this. </p>

<p>Please, Please let me know what you guys think. NYU is my dream school and I really really really want to get in!</p>

<p>Let me know if you guys need any more information</p>

<p>You know the cost to attend there right? Very expensive and very poor financial aid. SAT is a little weak.</p>

<p>aunt bea, I am aware of the financial cost, but in my eyes, its an investment into something far greater…if i can just get in lol…I live in NJ, worst case scenario I take a train every morning.</p>

<p>Who is doing the investing? And will loans be involved</p>

<p>NYU: low reach</p>

<p>Mom2collegekids, all my father told me was to get in, he’ll take care of the rest. I just need to know if I will get in.</p>

<p>sorry, have to bump</p>

<p>An admissions representative that visited my school said that all NYU admissions officers think its hilarious to see many business/economics majors apply ED to NYU but indicate they need financial aid, knowing that they’ll be “investing” about $65,000 a year if they get accepted, even though it’ll be a huge setback to their families’ financial situations, and how its ironic because those applicants are the least likely to be good future business people lolol</p>

<p>u have a good shot though :)</p>

<p>UCDreamer12, Thank you for your honesty. Let me address this by explicitly stating that money is not an issue. Yea, ill try for financial aid, why wouldn’t i, if i can get a reduction in cost, why not. Its just pragmatic thinking. Secondly, in regards to my business competency you are talking to a student whose gotten call backs from trillion dollar hedge funds my friend (Blackstone/Blackrock). I don’t need to lie on my CV because it essentially speaks for itself. I’ll send it to you if you don’t believe me. However, i appreciate the fact you think i have a good shot.</p>

<p>Sometimes when I look at posts in CC, I wonder what I have done in the last 4 years in school. But going back to your post I will say that your chances are high if you dont apply for any financial aid. Your Extra curriculars are good, gpa and SAT match NYU standards. So I think that your essay will play a big role in the final decision.</p>

<p>Salami809, thank you very much for your response.</p>

<p>You’re SATS are well above NYU’s average. Seriously. I have family there and the kids generally have much lower SATs than that. </p>

<p>I’m a hopeful too. Again, I have close family there (i.e. a sibling), and i have just shy of 2200. I’m pretty confident. Although, I’m not applying for any financial aid and that’s a big plus for NYU.</p>

<p>moomoo, i see your point. Should i just not send my fafsa and css forms to nyu, even though ive indicated i was seeking financial aid?</p>

<p>Why not apply to stern?</p>

<p>buuuuuuuuummppp</p>

<p>bumpity bump bump</p>

<p>You have a decent shot in my opinion. Your test scores aren’t bad, but they could be higher. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Thank you so much for the vote of confidence :)</p>

<p>buuuuuuumppppp</p>
