hey guys I applied to Tandon. I just have a quick question when you guys go to Albert >>Financial Aid >> Financial Aid Links. Does it show any information? I am sure it doesn’t mean anything but I was just curious. Thank you.
Last year’s thread shows that most CAS acceptances were from the first wave to 4/24, but all acceptances went well into late May
@haydeng19 ofc sure!
Applied and accepted to CAS for Political Science
Current school: Top 10 LAC
Applying after 3 semesters (took a gap semester first semester) - all credits (39 credits) transferred
College GPA: 3.88
31 ACT (36R, 36E, 25M, 27S) clearly not a stem major heh
2 LoR (Major advisor/professor and art history professor) - Both knew me really well
No financial aid needed
I had applied to NYU in high school, but was waitlisted. Current reasons for transferring were related to summer internship experience in NYC and inability to study political theory at current college…
Does anyone have any thoughts on the “withdraw your other applications” thing? Is this a common practice? I’m waiting on some other schools that might offer better financial aid, but I don’t know if they’ll release within the next two weeks.
@dallasunicorn @burritoboy and I were just talking about this in an earlier thread—not sure what to do either…
Waitlist is a different situation to this. By accepting their offer, you are agreeing to attend, this is why you should withdraw other applications. I don’t know if they would penalize you (such as reporting you to other school) for not doing so if you later withdraw from NYU, I doubt it, but of course you would lose your deposit. You will also potentially be denying another student a place.
All this is upfront, the page on NYU website https://www.nyu.edu/admissions/undergraduate-admissions/admitted-students/next-steps.html says among other things
(Under Deadline to respond) External Transfers: Within two weeks from the date on your admission letter
Keep in mind: If you accept our offer, you must withdraw any applications you have pending at other colleges or universities.
Right, but this seems unnecessarily draconian, especially considering that most students apply to multiple universities which don’t all release decisions within the same time frame.
Also, how consistent do financial aid offers tend to be from year to year? If you get x amount this year, is that a safe bet that you’ll get a similar amount the next year?
@SJ2727 Ah I understand now… thank you for clarifying!
Hey everyone! I just got admitted into College of Arts and Sciences as a Chem major so if you have any questions or whatever let me know i guess?? i’m new to this site but I figured I would let you guys know so you know decisions are coming out already!
Well… they do the same process every year, so I guess they have settled on what works for them, just as the other colleges have. To be fair, if they are upfront about how their process works, which they are, I’m not sure there are ground for objection to them.
Not 100% sure about financial aid but my understanding is that if your academic progress is satisfactory and your financial situation doesn’t change much, the aid should be consistent every year.
@mill213 what time did you get your decision today? I’m just wondering if they’re still giving them out today
Also, are there any rejections today?
@mill213 if you don’t mind me asking, when did you apply?
For people that were accepted today, what does your NYU Zoom account say under account profile → ‘your role’? because last year they said it changed from “member” to “member - something I forgot”
I submitted my application on March 26 and got an email today at 4:05pm that I have been accepted.
Also wanted to share my stats because I see a lot of really well qualified people on here!
Sophomore at a community college in NJ
4.0 GPA (College, and am taking 5 STEM courses right now, A’s in all of them)
3.73 high school gpa
1340 SAT superscored
I also have had many experiences in the medical field so far (shadowings, club activities, etc.) so I think that definitely helped.
I know a friend who transferred into STERN last year from Maryland (3.9 college GPA after first year) and didn’t receive a decision until late May.
Are any acceptances still coming in? Or has this wave ended
@Arithmetix mine says “user type: Licensed” What about you?
@Arithmetix I’m marked as member in zoom, but I haven’t received my decision as yet.
@sisyphuspeak does yours say “Member - affiliate” ?
