Chances of getting into NYU?

Chance Me / Match Me!

Hi im an Australian student and I really want to go to NYU. I’m currently in year 11 at a good private school.

I’ve travelled to 4 nationals and 1 pan pacific games and spent 3 weeks in Europe on a training camp for water polo. I have had lots of work experience at my dad’s finance company and at a stock broking/venture capitalist firm. I have gotten straight A’s and although my school doesn’t offer AP or honours classes my classes are some of the hardest offered.

I do Mock trials which is organised by the Law society of Western Australia and is like a law kind of thing. Ive played water polo for school for fours years and got an honours for it. I am apart of the st vincent de paul society at school and have done a bit of community service. I also was chosen and will be travelling to Canberra for a national science camp/forum at the Australian national university.

I haven’t taken the SAT’s yet but my expected score is around 1900-2000.
On the NYU website they also said they accept ATAR which is an Australian ranking score and my expected ATAR is around 97-98 which means I’m in the top 2-3% of people in my year in Australia.

I was wondering if I had a good chance of getting into NYU. I want to major in a business area.
Thanks :slight_smile:

Hi! I was recently admitted to NYU for the fall of 2015 and have been very interested in their admissions process for a while now… Honestly, its impossible for anyone to even attempt to “chance you” because you don’t have any standardized test scores or GPA to go off of. Although a 1900-2000 SAT is comparatively a very good score, I’d say that you need to have anywhere between a 2100-2200 to be truly competitive. Best of luck
