<p>I've seen very few discussions on minority applicants/admissions and I was wondering what the average stats of minorities admitted to NYU were this year.</p>
<p>How much of an advantage are they given in the admissions process?</p>
<p>yea im wonderin bout dat too</p>
<p>Yes! I Want To Know This As Well!!!!!</p>
<p>lol. no idea. i count as minority, but my stats are above the median for NYU so, heh
<3</p>
<p>I just found this article. I see it as a major positive! But what do you guys think?</p>
<p>"The university cannot use financial aid to attract minorities because the financial aid office grants need-based aid and merit scholarships regardless of race or ethnicity."</p>
<p>makes me happier about the merit</p>
<p>im a minority, and my stats are average/ above-average
but as an asian-american, i got a $15000 scholarship from brandeis (predominately jewish school), i doubt nyus gonna offer me anything or even accept me- their students are qualified and diverse enough </p>
<p>schools can still try to attract minorities w/ money, even if they say taht they don't- i'm not sure about this, but one of my teachers vaguley explained it to me</p>
<p>however, i doubt that nyu will really try to ATTRACT minorities, i mean really, they're such a diverse school</p>
<p>wow. multiracial people r considered as minorities? (so would my friend who is half american/korean also be considered?)</p>
<p>how easy does it get though? (compared with a Korean student like me?)</p>
<p>If you're poor and a minority...maybe. But I'm a minority and they're not giving me a dime.</p>
<p>they def do try to attract minorities, theres this program ceop or something thats only for URM and NYU basically gives all of them a free ride along with other perks.. (they get move in during the summer, free tutoring all 4 years of nyu, etc...)</p>
<p>sry someone told me this last time, but what's URM again??</p>
