Does NYU consider freshman grades?

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I'm currently a freshman in high school and I did extremely bad my freshman year ;</p>

<p>AVID - A
PE - B
Honors Bio - C
Spanish - B
Geometry - B
English - B</p>

<p>And I have a feeling my second semester, or final grades will come out similar to my first semester. And, I was wondering, does NYU factor in freshman grades for consideration an acceptance to the school?</p>

<p>Short answer: YES! </p>

<p>Long answer: You need to understand that all schools look at freshmen grades. Whether or not the recalculate the GPA of all applicants is irrelevant - the grades are right there staring them in the face on your transcript. Anyway, if you’re on CC as a freshmen you’re doing something right ;). You’ll be fine, your grades aren’t that horrible and you have three years to turn it around and prove yourself. Upward trends are looked favorably upon. But remember, college admissions are a crap shoot.</p>
