Chances With TERRIBLE Test Scores?

<p>Bumping. </p>

<p>I send my Northwestern and Boston University applications yesterday. I definitely enjoyed the "fictional character as a roommate" question. </p>

<p>Columbia is also done (Due in a couple hours)... I am working hard to make this NYU application perfect.</p>

<p>If it helps got in CAS ED at NYU last month. I had an ACT 31 and a 3.88 uw. Columbia and Northwestern are a reach, the rest could all be match or safety.</p>

<p>nyu is ultra-competitive for economics/business. id say its a reach.</p>

<p>For anyone that cares, I got into New York University :)</p>

<p>Congratulations. When did you receive your letter? I thought that NYU didn't send anything out until the last week of March and early April. That's really great that you got in though. I makes me feel a little bit better since my SAT scores were only a 1900, but all my other information is pretty good. NYU is my second choice, if I don't get into USC, so I'm just a little relieved now. Congrats again.</p>

<p>BU has an awesome undergrad business program.</p>

<p>Congratulations! Nice of you to follow up on your "chances" post if it can give hope to others. Way to go!</p>

<p>If you applied to Stern at NYU it's a big reach. Applying for economics is a match. Your biggest problem will be if you need financial aid, NYU is cheap to say the least and reserves money for only the top of the pool.</p>

<p>Thank you :)</p>

<p>Shh... I only got into New York University via the General Studies Program, but it is still an accomplishment for someone with SAT scores like mine. </p>

<p>What is odd is that I got accepted to Pace University's Honors college with a full academic scholarship, so I am still waiting on a few colleges before I make my decision.</p>

<p>Boston University definitely does have a great undergraduate business program, and I am eagerly awaiting their response. 6 to go!</p>

<p>I am still waiting to hear from Columbia and Northwestern (my two rejections!), but other than that:</p>

<p>New York University - Accepted
Boston University - Accepted
Northeastern University - Accepted
Fordham University - Accepted
Pace University - Accepted
University of Connecticut - Accepted
St. John's University - Accepted</p>

<p>I am torn between NYU and Boston University... I still have not filled out CSS, so I do not know how much potential money Boston University is willing to spend on me... I know I will not get much of anything from NYU.</p>

<p>good work man</p>
