Chances of getting into NYU Music Business?

<p>I recently visited NYU's Steinhardt Music Business program and found it fascinating. I know it is one of the best in the nation so I was curious about what other people thought my chances of getting in are.</p>

<p>I come from a small town - about 9000 people - so I haven't had as many opportunities as many others. When I was five, I started taking singing lessons. I still take singing lessons. When I was in 2nd grade I played piano and continued for 7.5 years. When I got into 4th grade I started violin which I played for 5 years, and flute which I still play today.</p>

<p>As far as math goes, I got a 31 on the ACT for math, and a 740 on the SAT. Act comp was 31 and SAT score was 2020. I took Calculus my Jr. year of high school and took the AP test and got a 4, which is decent.</p>

<p>Does anybody have any clue whether I have a chance? And also, should I take my SAT again?</p>

<p>Take the SAT again. It sounds like you have passion for where you want to go. There are other places, but if you really want to go to NYU, make that clear to the adcom.</p>

<p>Okay, I will probably take the SAT again. My sister goes to NYU, but not for music, and I really like the city. Except for the cold. But I guess I’ll cross my fingers.</p>

<p>I think you’ll be okay. The fact that your sister goes there has some appeal- they’ll like that I think.</p>
