Hi guys!!! So I’m an international student and I really wanna apply and get into NYU, hence I’m applying to NYU with ED I.
SO first things first I’m applying to Steinhart with the second and third options being Gallatin and CAS, respectively. I heard Gallatin and Steinhart were easiest schools to get into but I thats not why I’m applying lol. I wanna do psych, and both schools can give me that without the burden of the competition in CAS.
This was a well thought out decision as I know I have no issues in attending if I got in but due to my kinda average GPA (like a 3.34-5). I did the IB, and yeah my final grades were pretty okaayyy (I’m taking a gap year so Im applying now), I didn’t take my ACTs yet, but with practice tests and stuff Im trying to secure my grade at a 29-(preferably) 30+ and probably (hopefully lol) I can muster up a 30++. With scores outta the way, I also have a huge range of EC’s that in a nutshell include a lot of volunteer work (interning for therapist in a acid victim unit, volunteering in school for underprivileged kids, humanitarian and charity events/activities with my school, mostly internationally) and I also attended 3 MUN’s if that counts for anything. SO yeah Im not that big on arts or sports, but Ive never been into it so yeah these are significant enough to put on my apps. And I guess thats about it, its a lot but I’m pretty certain that my ACT and ECs will play a bigger role in my app, since obvs lots of people with better GPAs will apply.
PS- I dont really need aid either, and idk i dont wanna seem like I’m boasting, but some unis care about that so maybe this will help thanks
