NYU Fall 2017 Transfers Official Thread

Anybody else really nervous for decisions? I have been thinking about it non-stop!

@cjeong98 hey, I am applying to stern as an external transfer as well. If I do get accepted I will be a junior at stern; I hope at least one external transfer from this thread gets admitted. Just to prove that with hard work and persistence anything can be achieved!

@nyuhop3ful omg i’m so nervous )): i keep checking my albert and refreshing my email even though i know decisions won’t come out for a few weeks.

@thecitystars NYU has a pretty decent amount of clubs. I personally have never really been able to dedicate the time that I’d want to a club but it seems like they have a good amount. I sort of was a part of a student run record label and a ballet class group.Whenever you go to club fair, it seems like there are a ton of clubs but you can’t join maybe 25% of them because you’re not a person from a certain country or stuff like that, but that’s not a very huge deal hahaha. There’s a little bit of greek life too, but nothing like a state school or something

This is random, but has anyone here applied to NYU as a senior in High School, besides me? I ended up getting waitlisted from NYU back when I was in High School (I heard back pretty late in July, for “limited space” reasons). I also think one of the reasons why I ultimately got placed on the waitlist in the first place was that I didn’t write a quality essay and maybe because I went in as undecided, but I’m not really sure…

Do you guys think my chances of getting in NYU this time are higher? Ahh I’m so nervous :expressionless:

@nyuhop3ful

I feel like I will combust into flames. I just need to kNOW

@cjeong98

I heard NYU had the most applicants this year versus the previous years so we’ll see. Usually they push away transfers to make room for the upcoming freshmen.

@thecitystars is this just your assumption, or you have a credible source to rely on?

Hi, guys, I’m new in here, I’m really nervous. Did anyone else apply to Silver or Stern?

@cjeong98 i was rejected to CAS as a bio major when i was a senior in high school even though i was qualified academically :frowning: i applied again as a film major to tisch so hopefully i get in this time!

anyone know how many transfers they usually take in Tisch film?

I got it from their website/blog. I’m just assuming the latter part since usually transfer applicants are not prioritized as incoming freshmen but then again, that’s just my guess. Who knows, maybe we’ll see a rise of transfers admitted this year too.

FWIW, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if NYU experienced a record number of applications.

In the Common App era, this is a yearly occurrence for MANY colleges, and doesn’t mean much for transfers, except that transfers will probably also have a record number of applications.

@annadragon Aww I feel you :expressionless: I hope you get in this time around though! ^^

@annadragon i hope you get in!!!

We have a few more weeks until they release the hounds but lol I’m prepared for the worst

You see, what I don’t like is that my fate is in the hands of others, but I guess that’s life for you haha

^^ i feel you :confused: last week i got into fordham lincoln center for film so at least i know i’m definitely going to be in manhattan!

Anyone applying to stern??? ~lonely transfer student
