<p>I thinking about going to stern, but my gpa is 91.5 out of 100.
do I still have a chance?</p>
<p>any stern freshmen can help?</p>
<p>i don’t know what a 91.5/100 is on a 4.0 scale, and I’m not a freshman (still waiting on my own decision)</p>
<p>but APPLY ANYWAY…whats the worst they can say? no?..well it’s basically a “no?” if you don’t even apply</p>
<p>besides…a 91/100 on has to be at least a 3.5/4—which is within competitive range for NYU (stern I don’t know but if you are in range for NYU in general, Stern shouldn’t be that much more difficult especially if you have other aspects to promote yourself)</p>
<p>ok, and I am from a poor family, (get reduced lunch), and do I get lower applying fee, or it’s the same?</p>
<p>Stern does not only pay attention to stats, but also to your essay. I had poor stats (32 ACT and 1360/1600 SAT) but my essay was creative enough that I got in.</p>
<p>but do I have to the same amount of cash on admission because I am from a poor family?</p>
<p>what is reach, mid-reach, low reach, match, and safety school mean? thank you for that helped.</p>
<p>Reach is a school that is within reach lol nah jk it means a school that is possible but not likely</p>
<p>Match is a school that has statistics similar to your credentials</p>
<p>Safety is a school that you are sure to get in.</p>
<p>As far as the fee, you can get it waived if your parents make under 20,000. I know its incredibly low, basically, you need to be poverty not just reduced lunch. Sorry, sucks I know, I tried to get one too.</p>
<p>Your guidance counselor should be able to acess fee waivers for you.</p>
<p>Theirs isn’t a fee waiver like the Ivies. They appear to have changed it from last year, you might be able to get one, here’s the link:

<p>You can get a fee waiver through Collegeboard. That’s what I did. I got reduced price lunch so when I signed up for the SAT I got four fee waivers. I also heard that if you live in New York you don’t have to pay the application fee, but I’m not sure because I still had to use a fee waiver for NYU and I live in New York.</p>
<p>Just have your guidance counselor write a letter requesting a fee waiver, even if you are a little above the limit that NYU says you have to be under. I was, but I explained to them how much of a financial burden it still was and they waived the fee for me.</p>
