I heard for art/Tisch, NYU weighs 50% on normal app. and 50% on the creative portfolio? So creative portfolio:
I wrote my essays for my portfolio all in the last two days, no editing, just submitted once everything was done lmao. Personally, I think they were okay - topics were a bit similar but shows that I am very passionate about art, beauty, etc. and want to share my perspective with the world. Also, I’m a huge fan of philosophy, so just lots of existential, self-analysis stuff!
My creative resume was not bad, a decent amount of activities, but didn’t fill up the whole page hahah. Though I didn’t have any film-related stuff, I had different art, music, and dance activities.
Creative submission wasn’t good LOL. I submitted a really rushed, kind of crappy, low-quality film that wasn’t really a narrative, more introspective psychobabble. (I didn’t have anyone to film because none of my friends know I want to do film…) Then, in the last section on SlideRoom, I linked a Google Website I created with some pieces from my AP art portfolio that I’m doing this year. Don’t know if they actually looked at it though - just wanted to slip in other art so they could see I don’t suck that much ?
I still can’t believe it. My parents were SO surprised when I told them. No one expected me to get in, and EDII was an impulse decision. Wow!
Congrats to those who got in!! And good work, everyone! We all worked hard these past 4 years and in the end, I’m sure we’ll all be happy with the places we’ll be going to :))
Hey guys - just got in for Tisch (IM ECSTATIC), wanted to give some stats for those who asked (though for the arts it’s always iffy):
GPA weighted: 3.8
ACT: 29 (but I actually didn’t send my test to NYU because it was optional)
For extracurriculars, I have directed the school plays and musicals since sophomore year and also have a job as a music teacher elsewhere. Basically, I had that ideal extracurricular situation where I demonstrated leadership in somethings that lightly relate to my major and that I have been doing for a long time. Since I was applying to be in Dramatic writing, I spent basically my whole summer perfecting my writing supplementals and I like to think my portfolio was well crafted and portrayed the strengths I had built from what little experience I had.
Got waitlisted in CAS for eco. Chances later? 1450 SAT 800 Math II 760 Phy GPA 3.5
28 act, 3.86 uw gpa, accepted into CAS as a computer science major (it was probably my essay’s that got me in lol)
accepted stern!
Hello, I got accepted into CAS with major in Econ, however, I cannot find what the core modules and generally the curriculum is can someone pls help me?
@PK0891 , is this what you’re looking for? http://cas.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/cas/academic-programs/bulletin/departments-and-programs/department-of-economics/program-of-study-cas-bulletin.html
I have to admit, if you applied ED (binding) i’m surprised you didn’t research this in advance?
Hello, thank you but I don’t mean that. When the acceptance came in it redirected me to a page where it had all the required (or all the proposed) modules for the first year, second etc, that is what I cannot find.
Hii has anyone received their acceptance packets yet? I live in New York and still haven’t received the packet…
@burgundyrose I think everything will be a little delayed because of President’s day
@burgundyrose I just got my acceptance packet today, I live in the city too. But I agree that the recent holiday definitely delayed things
they mail out acceptance packets?
Yeah. I’m so nervous I still haven’t accepted it lol
i accepted my offer but i haven’t received anything yet. anyone get accepted into the heop program? looking for my future classmates
Hello everyone,
