Hi there everyone.
So I am currently in the college search (I will be a senior this fall, graduating 2017) and happened to fall in love with NYU. HOWEVER of course its known for its crazy fees and I was wondering if someone could give me some insight with regards to my stats at what kind of shot I would get at financial aid. I know usually the highest they offer is $25000 but I was wondering what the stats of the students who get that kind of scholarship are. Ill put my info down below, so if anyone could give me insight to what kind of aid I might be capable of getting that’d be great (and if i can get in in the first place…). Also if you are a current or past student at NYU, what your stats were and what kind of aid you are receiving/recieved. Also any general opinions are much appreciated… okay anyways!
4.0 GPA (I think… 94.5 unweighted)
1890 SAT (trashy subject tests, still need to take new SAT and ACT)
Violin for 10 years (All County, All State, private lessons, teach lesson to two students, section leader in orchestra, played in pit orchestras for musicals)
Musical Theatre (7 shows, two with large parts/leads)
Voice Lessons
Varsity Tennis (All State Award, Rookie of the Year)
NHS and Tri-M Music Honors Society member
