Because whether or not some people get accepted or rejected later will depend on whether people who have already been accepted, confirm or refuse their places. For those people, not getting an acceptance now is not an automatic rejection, it’s a maybe. (It’s maybe a maybe at this stage, I guess).
By the way someone upthread was talking about Stern being notified late, again my understanding is kind of a similar reason - internal transfers get preference for Stern, so they see how that goes before deciding on external applicants.
You can’t hold two deposits and two places at once (you agreed to these terms in the common app) so you’ll have to withdraw your NYU place when you take the other one up. You’ll lose your deposit.
Would losing my deposit be the only consequence if that’s a route I choose to take? It’s explicitly stated that if an offer is accepted, all other pending applications have to be withdrawn. I’m wondering how that is enforced, and what the worst case scenario could be…
I have a question. So I went to nyu classes and my membership status says that I am not a member of any site. But when I go to my profile it gives me an nyu.edu email with my username at the front. Is that anything or does everyone else have that?
@transfer1280@claudia359 I asked the same question about NYU classes and the NYU email earlier in the thread and it was confirmed that everyone had it!
I think it’s more an honor code type of thing. Technically they can probably make a big deal of it with wherever you go but in practice I don’t think that happens.
i think because fall semester is highly predicted to be online, and even spring semester, colleges are accepting a lot more people to offset how many people will defer or deny because of online school cost.
