NYU ED2 2019 Discussion/Decision Thread

@shady16‌ how do u know nyu updated your app?

@szszsz i feel your pain. At such a massive school like nyu you think they could resolve this stupid FA change

i checked whether NYU had my transcript around 12 and there was no check. I than checked at like 1:30 and the transcript box was checked off! This was around Jan 10

@shady16‌ oh i see it! thanks “In recent years, the College of Arts and Science, the Stern School of Business, and the Tisch School of the Arts have only admitted students who have designated these schools/colleges as a primary program of interest.”

To lift up the spirits of the applicants(including myself) who haven’t received a FA change yet:

ED1 applicant.

Is there any place we can provide the SSN to NYU if we did not apply for FA or fill the CSS profile? I am an international applicant, but I have American SSN. I am so confused now… Can someone help me out?

Guys it’s pretty obvious that the changes are coming in waves; I talked to my admissions counselor this week, and she told me that they aren’t done reviewing all the applications yet.
So don’t lose hope everyone!!

What kind of order are the waves? Do they follow the time you submit the application?

@szszsz‌ I don’t know what order, but I know that they don’t review based on when you submitted your application because I submitted mine like a month early, but only just got the change.

@ImNYUobsessed‌ Hi, fellow international Gallatin applicant here! I didn’t apply for FA, but got the change anyway. Did you apply for FA? :smile:

@VandaAree you don’t need to apply for aid to get the FA change.

I’m a stern applicant. As a already mentioned, Stern requested me for a skype interview. It went well…I was really confident. I just read that only those on the borderline get stern interviews. But I got the FA change a week ago. Reall hope they admit into Stern and not CAS.

“In recent years, the College of Arts and Science, the Stern School of Business, and the Tisch School of the Arts have only admitted students who have designated these schools/colleges as a primary program of interest.”

No way you getinto CAS if you put stern first

This FA change theory is killing the feel of this moment hahaha…can’t even take a week break for any outdoor activity…Sucks big time!

@VandaAree‌ hello :slight_smile:
I did apply for aid actually… I would ask you what your concentration is, but I don’t want us to get ahead of ourselves…the FA change can go either way for international students :confused:

@imNYUobsessed Gallatin international here too! I have heard that the fa change still applies most of the time for international students.

@1013gattca‌ really? Wow that’s good news…
I’ve been second-guessing myself all night

i got the FA change some days ago, and i applied to tisch. but i seriously don’t buy into this theory. my stats are too shitty , and i pretty much applied while telling myself “bruh u gon get rejected”.

@Hodor11‌ hey there, I applied to Stern as my primary and CAS as my secondary. I got the FA change a week ago. apparently it’s extremely rare you get into CAS if you put Stern as your primary, so let’s see. I’m scared I got into CAS and not Stern as well haha

@boogapenguin hey! Congratualtions :smiley: Thanks a lot for telling me that. Now i don’t have to worry about CAS :stuck_out_tongue:
Just waiting for 16th! Are you an inernational applicant?
