Has anyone heard back from NYU yet?
Is this legit? Cos I think they would have sent it to everyone if it was or?
Based off of that letter I guess this is the end guys. I was holding out for CAS, hoping they were maybe releasing late this year. All hope is basically gone. I’m giving up any hopes for admission.
it’s on the nyu website
Can you send the link @qwerty10986

Found it… feeling pretty bummed as of right now.
Does any one know whether this update would apply to the satellite campuses or are their processes separate?
@clay0404
Ouch this hurts…a ton…
Would’ve been so happy to go to Stern:(
Well this is saddening… however, I will still have hope (as long as I didn’t get the email saying I am fully denied). That’s all I can do for now is have hope
When you didn’t even get today’s waitlist update email…
Im confused. Did they not email anyone that letter and just post it on their site. Or did some ppl get the email. If they just posted it on their website and expect all of us to get the message im confused. They literally play with any and all of your emotions.
Also Im extra confused because NOT ONE person on this thread has been admitted for fall even though in the update it says that 150 ppl have been admitted for fall. Maybe one or two people on this thread that i missed, but i dont remember seeing any for fall. I know the whole waitlist isnt on this thread but there should be a few people posting about it. I havnt heard of anyone at school or online getting in for fall. Maybe they are just all in hiding idk. Im so confused how 150 people could have been addmited for fall and we havnt heard a peep about it.
20122638 That what I was thinking!

The individual who posted the waitlist update never mentioned that he or she received the update via email. I believe it was just an update posted on NYU’s website since it doesn’t seem anyone received the email
These are the updates posted on NYU Blog during 2016 waitlist period. NOTE: THIS IS NOT FOR THIS YEAR. THIS IS CLASS OF 2020
Waitlist Update 1
April 29, 2016
Earlier today, we notified between 35-40 students who applied to the Tisch School of the Arts and Meyers College of Nursing that we could offer them admission. Those students were alerted to check their NYU Albert account online to view their admission decision and to confirm their enrollment at NYU.
At this point, it still too early to tell if we will have additional spaces. I will provide an update on this blog as the spring progresses into summer but a few updates now:
If your interest in NYU is burning, the best way to advocate for yourself is to provide whatever information you want us to consider on our wait list response form, which has ample space to express your interest in NYU and to add any additional information you want us to consider.
We strongly discourage against submitting ANY new materials and/or recommendations. So many students send us emails and letters expressing their interest in NYU when, in fact, the wait list response form above is the only additional item we review (along with one’s application materials) when determining who to admit from the wait list. Of course, if admitted, we will also want to review your final transcript.
Before emailing or calling with questions about how our wait list works, please review our wait list FAQ here. Roughly 10-15% of our applicant pool was offered a space on our wait list. By May 1, we expect fewer than half of these students will agree to be on our wait list. We will then re-evaluate those candidates in the event any space is available in our freshman class. The wait list is not ranked and we cannot predict how many students will eventually be offered admission. The number has ranged from 0 to 500+ in recent years.
For some programs, we have exhausted NYU scholarships and we may need to be “need-aware” in making decisions about who to admit from the wait list.
Out of fairness to all, we do not set up appointments with students on the wait list. Again, instead of visiting or sending new materials, please make use of our wait list response form above.
We know that it can and will be frustrating to wait for us. A waiting list can feel like purgatory. You haven’t been admitted. You haven’t been denied. The wait can sometimes be unbearable. Patience will be essential.
If we have space in any of our programs on any of our campuses, we will do everything possible to consider you until the very end. But the end may be as late as August 1.
August 1?! Yes, August 1. While there is absolutely no expectation that you wait for us until August 1, it may, in fact, take through the months of May, June, and July for us to know if any space will materialize. You can remove your name from our wait list at any time and we would encourage you to do so at any point by emailing admissions.ops@nyu.edu. We only want you to remain on the waiting list for as long as you have interest in NYU.
We wish you the best with your options for next year and we will be in touch as soon as possible.
Waitlist Update 2
May 16, 2016
Here is an update for first-year applicants holding a space on our wait list.
Since May 1, we have admitted another 75 or so students from our waiting list. As of this week, approximately 110 students have been admitted thus far. From this point forward, we do not expect to extend any additional offers of our admission to the following programs: the College of Arts and Science, Core Program in Liberal Studies, Global Liberal Studies Program, Gallatin School of Individualized Study, or Tandon School of Engineering.
We may have additional space in our other programs but it is too early to tell how many and when those spaces may open.
If you are holding a space, please take the time to read my first update for students on the wait list, which explains what you should (and should not do) from this point forward.
I will provide another update in a few weeks.
Waitlist Update 3
June 15, 2016
First-year applicants holding a space on our wait list should read this update:
We have now admitted just over 200 students from our wait list. We continue to have no space in our College of Arts and Science, programs in Liberal Studies, the Gallatin School of Individualized Study, the Tandon School of Engineering, and NYU Abu Dhabi. It now also appears that we will have no additional space in our Stern School of Business.
We are still unsure as to whether or not we will admit any additional students to our Meyers College of Nursing or Silver School of Social Work, but it is looking increasingly unlikely.
We still may have additional space in our School of Professional Studies, Steinhardt School, Tisch School of the Arts, and NYU Shanghai. You will be contacted by phone or email if we are able to offer you such a space. Please do not call or email to inquire about your status.
Virtually all transfer students have received a final admission decision. We have some final decisions to make and a very small wait list. We will provide those students with closure as soon as possible.
I will provide another update in July and all students will have a final decision on their application status by August 1.
Comments are closed.
Waitlist Update 4:
July 13, 2016
As of today, we have admitted just shy of 300 students from our wait list for the Class of 2020. From this point forward, we expect to admit no more than a dozen additional students (at most) and virtually all of our programs are full at this time. If we are able to extend a space to you, we will do so by August 1, the date by which we will close our wait list.
We thank all of our candidates for their patience as we finalize our admission decisions in the next 2-3 weeks
S was admitted for fall (Gallatin) – got the interest email and admit notice came last Thursday 2 PT. There were a few others. First saw an admit report here around May 3-4; S received his on the 10th. Offer included a (small) merit aid component.
If feel like they are going to offer more spots to people. It is odd to only accept 150 students and be nearly full. Look at what I posted above and look what happened last year.
2016: Less than 300
2017: 900
What the hell is going on?
They usually mention which schools they have started to admit people from off the waitlist to just to give people a better idea of there chances but the update today has nothing. Im so lost. This update on their website is vague. Also why do parents feel a certain urge to post on this site. I know i would be cringing so hard if my mom wrote on here about my grades etc calling me her D. Just feel like this website is for kids who are stressed out not for parents looking to brag. Ur 40+ yrs old talking to a bunch of 17 and 18 year olds about ur childs perfect SAT score. Kinda cringe. Just saying.
