I also received the NYUSH interview call two days ago. And yeah has anyone heard from nyuad about the CW?
I got an NYUSH interview email as well!
@vickyness Could you also tell us about the essay that you wrote at CW? Thanks so much
@ssk594 I’ll tell you a bit, but I don’t want to spoil all the fun of CW! Most importantly though, don’t stress too much about it as it’s not used for admissions. It’s to determine your writing level and if you would be ready to take a writing-intensive course (as everyone has to) or if they think you need more practice/instruction in university-style writing and should take an Analysis and Expression course. Although if it was terrible (like you can’t write properly in English or didn’t hand it in) or amazing, they’d probably consider it re. admissions, but not other than that. You have like 2 or so hours to write it based on a picture prompt they give you. It’s fine, really
Guys, a friend of mine told me that if you get an interview e-mail from shanghai, then you will probably not get invited to candidate weekend. Is this true? I am really worried since i got an NYUSH e-mail too. @vickyness Did you apply to NYUSH as your second campus? If yes, did you get both the interview call AND candidate weekend call?
@vickyness Wow! So did they like put you in a room or something for those 2 hours? By the way i heard that you have to write a reflective essay too of CW? Is that true?
@Marstatic That’s definitely not true! I got an interview for Shanghai and an invite to CW, as did quite a few people on my weekend. The admissions are separate, don’t worry.
@ssk594 We were allowed to use the library or a few open spaces nearby. We also had interviews over the same period and you could leave when you were done. Yeah, that’s the same essay, called Reflective Writing.
@Vickyness There was a CW for non-chinese applicants at Shanghai last year? Or are you talking about AD?
Guys I just got invited to the NYUAD CW as well
@Musktard Sorry I didn’t clarify - interview for SH, CW for AD.
