CHANCE ME!

Own a business on DePop called ChiTownPickups with 900 followers and $1000 profit
Community service in many different settings including a volunteer bakery and an organization that helps expose girls in middle school to athletics
I was a sports reporter on our school newspaper for 3 years
I worked over the summer at a local grocery story in the kosher bakery (I wrote my Common App essay about how working in a kosher bakery and being an athiest exposed me 1. to different people, but also expanded my mind to different belief systems 2. the idea of prayer in Judaism
Wrote my NYU essay about being queer and how important it is to find a community, I connected this back to one of my online seminars with an NYU student who also happened to be queer
I’m got into my school’s honor society all 3 years (haven’t been able to apply yet this year) and NHS this year
I attended an online summer class this past summer at UCLA for Psychobiology
Demographics:
I’m a white, queer female living in a suburb of Chicago. Did not apply for financial aid, definitely wouldn’t have received any given my family’s income. My family plans to pay for all of college.
Good luck to you guys! I’m definitely just as nervous as all of y’all!
ahh oh man i’ve heard about it all throughout the years though - like how it is important for international students to get above 1500 in SATs to help ourselves feel more nervous now
I applied to stern! I know it’s super competitive so I’m kinda stressed about it but we’ll all know by the 15th (probably 16th for me cus time difference)
just wanted to hop on here + add some fluff and say to those who posted your chance mes, id accept you if i were an ao. i know my words dont hold any weight whatsoever, but after reading about the different applicants who also applied ed 1, theres not doubt that yall are the people id love to be in nyu with next year and over the next few years:) this doesnt only apply to those who posted chance mes, but also to those who are pretty active on here. i mean yeah haha you guys have better stats + ecs than me and it makes me anxious, but you’re all so supportive and we love to see it!!:’)
