<p>Does anyone know what the projected acceptance rate is for 2013? I've heard it will be under 20%, but not sure.</p>
<p>all signs point to a 37% acceptance rate</p>
<p>lol, it definitely won't be under 20%</p>
<p>sterns will be lower</p>
<p>It's normally like 32% or something, so it might be a bit lower b/c of the rise in apps this year, but who knows?</p>
<p>Straight from wikipedia:
The Class of 2012 (entering Fall 2008) is made up of 4,310 students, 26.9% of which were early decision candidates.[76] The middle 50% of SAT scores for the Class of 2011 fell between a 1300 and a 1440 while the middle 50% of ACT scores were between 29 and 31. The average High School GPA was a 3.63 and 72.3% of incoming students were in the top 10% of their class.[76] The school's admissions rate fell to an NYU record low of 24% of applicants.[77]</p>
<p>^^And if it's on the internet, it HAS to be true.</p>
<p>But in all seriousness, 37% seems really high. Especially since we're in the baby-boom college application period. I think it will probably be low to mid 20s.</p>
<p>What I'd really like to know is the school-by-school breakdown, at least for Stern and Tisch. As an applicant it was pretty hard to judge the competitiveness of admission to those schools... felt like I was flying blind most of the time.</p>
<p>According the the NYU admissions website, NYU had a 25 % acceptance rate, so definately something under 25% all of you predicting 30 somethingers are foolish :)</p>

<p>i got into nyu this yr, they said less than 25 percent</p>
<p>God, I still can't believe I got in. What sucks is that there are so few good schools to apply to if you want to live in New York. For me I applied to Columbia, NYU, and Fordham and each schools admit rate fell to a record low (I got into NYU and Fordham). I guess for girls it's slightly better if you count Barnard. bahah</p>
<p>what is fordham's admit rate this yr?</p>
<p>why dont you go to the fordham threads? lol</p>
<p>princeton review says:</p>
<p>Total applicants: 37,245
Total applicants who are accepted: 11,965</p>
<p>Thats 32% for last years applicants</p>
<p>^ It's 25% excluding LSP. They don't count LSP since it's only a two-year program I believe.</p>
<p>According to this <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stern_School%5B/url%5D">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stern_School</a> Stern's admit was 21% for 06-07, so it's most likely under 20% now. Tisch is >25 but it varies from program to program. </p>
<p>Fordham's like 40%.</p>
<p>no, i think it is less than 25 percent including everything</p>
<p>“all signs point to a 37% acceptance rate” WHOA WHOA WHOA. hold up there for a second. NYU’s general acceptance rate by all the deparments is usually 25%. Stern is much harder to get into, therefore it must be lower or around 25%… NOWHERE AROUND 37%. That’s just overkill.</p>
<p>@ MathTeamExtraPro </p>
<p>(1) This thread is from 2009%
(2) In 2009, the acceptance rate was indeed around 37%
(3) The acceptance rate last year (For the class of 2016) was 35%, with the previous year being around 33% (class of 2015). </p>
<p>Indeed, 37% was very accurate and actually correct. The acceptance rate includes Stern, Tisch, CAS, Steinhardt, Gallatin, NYU-AD, LSP, SCPS, the College of Nursing, College of Dentistry and the Silver School. </p>
<p>Fact check please. </p>
<p>NYU’s acceptance rate, all of those schools included, has never been below 30%.</p>
<p>This year’s rate is probably no more than 30%. Stern’s acceptance rate probably reached a record low <20%.</p>
<p>In fall of 2012, 42,807 people applied with an admissions rate of 35% and yield of 34%. If the yield remains the same, it does look like, based on this year’s number of applicants, the admissions rate will drop. </p>
<p>[NYU</a> Receives Record Number of Applications Across Its Global Network of Campuses](<a href=“NYU Receives Record Number of Applications Across Its Global Network of Campuses”>NYU Receives Record Number of Applications Across Its Global Network of Campuses)</p>
<p>“There are some 5,250 spaces available in NYU’s freshman class across its global network, with approximately 4,800 New York-based spaces (91%), 150 (3%) in Abu Dhabi, and approximately 300 (6%) in Shanghai. Of the 48,606 applicants, 94% expressed interest in New York (45,452 applicants), 9% expressed interest in Abu Dhabi (4,289 applicants), and in its first year of recruitment, an extraordinary 11% expressed interest in Shanghai (5,145 applicants).”</p>
<p>@ NYU2013, if none of the acceptance rates have been under 30%, then why do i see 25% acceptance rates on wikipedia? People have also agreed on some posts that NYU’s acceptance rate is indeed well below 30% (low 20s for stern). </p>
<p>I have also heard taht stern is harder than all the other NYU schools, so their acceptance rate can’t be 30% or more.</p>
<p>@MathTeamExtraPro</p>
<p>Acceptance rates below 30% have only ‘existed’ at NYU when NYU has excluded LSP admissions via some ‘loop holes’. E.g. NYU’s citation for sub 30% acceptance rate is inclusive of all of it’s 4-year degree granting programs - since LSP is a two-year program, it excludes LSP. </p>
<p>Whoever ‘agreed’ that NYU’s total acceptance rate was lower than 30% simply didn’t know what they were talking about. You can find all of this information in NYU’s yearly published reports. </p>
<p>Stern, CAS and Tisch’s acceptance rates float around 22.5% fluctuating between 20% and 25%. But, those are only 3 of the many schools that make up all of the undergraduate degree-granting schools and programs at NYU.</p>
