<p>I'm planning on applying to NYU for early decision since I'm positive that it's my first choice. However, I'm seriously distressed about my First Quarter grade since I would have never imagined of getting a C like...EVER which until now I received. Does NYU ask for mid year report only or would they ask for your 1st Quarter grade in the admission process? I would really like to know so I won't despair for the rest of the semester which I really don't need with all the work due for IB for senior year and trying to average out my bad grade with a higher grade for the midyear report. Thank you!</p>
<p>They require mid year reports (which will be sent after you get your ED1 results) but typically don’t request first quarter grades for ED1. They also require final transcripts with your senior year grades after graduation.</p>
<p>So does that mean there is a low chance that they might ask the counselor for Q1 grades then for NYU? Because I know many colleges request the counselors to send the information.</p>
<p>Chances are they won’t be seeing your first quarter grades but they might if they’re on the fence about accepting you. I’m in a similar situation (last year’s gpa was a 3.9 UW and first quarter I have a 3.2 UW). Don’t freak but definitely try to bring it up to a B by the end of the year.</p>
<p>Thanks bunches! I’ll definitely bring it up without fail. :)</p>
<p>NYU is generally quite good about not worrying too much about senior year grades. However, if you do poorly they will give you a warning. Last year they revoked a few admissions to students. But, unless have more than C, you needn’t worry.</p>
<p>when do they usually ask for 1st quarter reports?
also i have a 89 UW GPA and 93.4 W GPA with 2200 SAT
SAT II: 750 physics 790 math 2c and 740chem (took again probably higher)
and a lot of music and extra curricular stuff
I early decided for college of arts and science
what are the chances of me getting in?</p>
<p>Don’t bump an already dead topic. If you want to ask a new question, create a new topic and don’t just hijack one.</p>
<p>@azhong What’s with the stick up your butt, dude? It’s a small forum, not very active, where kids ask for help. Chill out and don’t be a jerk.</p>
<p>@ohnamoo NYU doesn’t ask for first quarter reports, they ask for midterm grades. Personally, I doubt they really care much about them unless you have decided to stop doing your class work and started failing everything.
As for your chances, I obviously can’t say for sure but your SAT scores look pretty good! When it comes to your extracurricular activities, showing yourself in leadership positions helps a lot.</p>
