Gallatine or Steinhardt....

Colleges and Universities A-Z New York University

<p>Hello! So, I really would love to apply to Gallatine (such an awesome program..love it..), but I feel that my stats aren't strong enough. SAT- within the middle 50 % range; GPA- 3.6ish w i think; Class rank 12-13%; Great recs and essay; Ok ec. Sorry, I know it's not specific, but I'm not looking for chances. Basically, Gallatine would definitely allow me to study this very gallantine-like major that I want to do (unique and thus requires several classes in different fields--sorry for not sharing). However, if Gallatine is difficult for me to get in, I might actually want to apply to Steinhardt because it does have a major that is close to what I intend to study, and I heard that its acceptance rate is a little bit higher than other schools (and of course, both are equally great schools--I just think that Gallatine would be more of a "fit" for me). If such a major would not be satisfactory (in Steinhardt), then I might do an internal transfer. But, still, I really really want to go to NYU. What would you suggest? Apply to Gallatine or Stainhardt? </p>

<p>Also..I'm Asian..I found out that the percentage of Asian population in Steihardt is 14 %, but do you know that of Gallatine? Higher or Lower? I couldn't find it.</p>

<p>Please reply..Thank you!!</p>

<li>There is no way for anyone to look at your post and be able to answer your question without you going into what you want to study. Personally, I hate Steinhardt. I started there. But I had several professors tell me not to internally transfer to Gallatin and to try and mold my own interests out of double majors/minors in CAS. I ended up going to CAS and being happy with my academics but ultimately leaving NYU after a year. </li>

<p>And third, it doesn't matter "asian" populations. The school is very much integrated.. on a social level, it doesn't matter what school someone's in. Stereotypically.. lot's of Asians in Stern, were quite a few in GSP and Steinhardt. There is no shortage of Asians at NYU if you are looking for a sense of community; your halls are all intermixed between schools so it's really not a problem.</p>
