NYU Fall 2017 Transfers Official Thread

Hi @annadragon where did you see your FA information? Is it the tab in your Albert portal?

I kind of feel more nervous because a lot of people have a FA change, but mine says ‘award access not available.’ I know that it’s not a 100% guarantee, but it would make me feel somewhat better lol

literally NO change on my Albert besides the student tab. I don’t know how I should feel about this. :((

@lilychan16 it’s in the albert portal when you click “financial aid summary” or “accept/decline financial aid.”

mine used to be a blank page with award access not available but it changed to a column with aid year: 2017, institution: new york university, and aid year description.

also i didn’t apply for FA or put on my common app that i wanted financial aid but i still have the change!

it looks like no decisions went out today so we’ll probably have to wait until monday :frowning:

@annadragon I just called the admission office and they said that we should expect our decisions anytime from April to May. So I am wondering which will they release first, the rejections or acceptions?

@swagsugar acceptances already started coming out a couple weeks ago! there haven’t been any rejections posted on this thread yet

@annadragon Thanks for the information! Guess rejections will be released after acceptance.

@swagsugar i’m pretty sure it’s just random honestly! i don’t think there’s any sort of order

@annadragon Oh thank you so much for these information! Mine hasn’t changed yet…hopefully it will change next week :expressionless:

@annadragon I just got really nervous. Hope we can heard from them ASAP!

Does anyone know if they send rejections through Albert?

I havent had any changes in my FA yet or housing :confused: I’m getting nervous

@amsrachel when did you apply? i applied to tisch on march 17th and i just got my FA change today… they might not have looked at your application yet

I applied on March 15th, and they sent me an email a week ago asking me to send my midyear report. After that, nothing had ever changed.

@Daxx121

What was the email of them asking you for the midterm report?

I got accepted!

Which school did you apply to? And which university do you go to? @NYknicks7

whoa you can go in undeclared?

i think that person is lying because you can’t apply as undeclared when you’re a transfer to nyu lol they require you to declare a major.

http://advising.cas.nyu.edu/page/transfer here’s the link. it says “In addition, all external transfer students must declare a major and meet with an assigned advisor in the major department in order to ensure that appropriate course selections for the following semester are being made.”

there was a person in our groupme who lied about being accepted to stern so that could be the same person
