if anyone wants to privately review each others’ nyu application, dm me. i’m having sheer anxiety after getting deferred from so many schools.
hey everyone! i’m also super anxious about decisions, i applied ed to barnard and was rejected sadly. however, everything happens for a reason and nyu is my dream so maybe it was a sign idk 
my stats are
3.6 uw
4.6 w
Class rank: 105/281
7 Honors/Advanced History, English-10th grade, Theatre and Choir-10-12th grade
8 IB Courses-6 SL courses- 2 HL courses Not reporting tests
1 Dual Enrollment with the University of Montana- IB Math
4 Online classes- Latin, French, Statistics, Personal Finance
Extracurriculars:
Professional Modeling~2 years- I’m a signed model who’s represented multiple brands and have been internationally published in 8+ magazines.
Honor Choir~3 years- Attended state and regional festivals, was also class pres. 9th grade.
Theatre~4 years- Head Makeup artist, Actress, Graphic Designer
International Thespian Society~ Local and State Student Leadership Boards~2 years
My school’s Indigenous Student Union- Vice President~2 years
Montana Youth Action~ State Board of Directors-Vice Chair Communications~1 year
These are some of my larger extracurriculars but I’ve also been a National Outreach Coordinator for Learn to Be a volunteer digital tutoring service and National Digital Projects Coordinator for Generation Ratify which is an entirely youth-run org focused on ratifying the equal rights amendment. I’ve also been a regional competitor for Poetry Out Loud and been a captain’s assistant for my school’s Colorguard team.
Personal Essay: In my personal essay I talk about an Anti-Bullying commercial campaign I did when I was a sophomore, I talk about growing up on the Fort Peck reservation in rural Montana and my personal struggles with bullying additionally being a survivor of domestic abuse and food/housing insecurity. Ultimately I didn’t want to make this a sob story though because I wanted to showcase how I rose from this hardship 
Why NYU:
I discuss my personal struggles with understanding math and how I nearly gave up because I didn’t get it right away like the other kids, I then connect this to my work with Learn to Be following with my interest in NYU and how I face academic adversity with my head up.
LOR: I think my LoRs are good, I waived the right to see them on Common App because I felt that might allow teachers to be more honest, I chose my english teacher and my history teacher along with my drama teacher, all these people I’ve been really close too and they’ve seen me progress through HS.
Major: I applied to Steinhardt for MCC, Media,Culture and Comms

I got a pretty generous one. 30K-40K, tbh Idk how because I didn’t even apply for fin aid, but I am more than happy to take it lmao.
You got ur decision already??
I applied back in ED1
I can only see NYU Personal Information Update Request button on my portal. But I can see no application on my NYU housing portal.
Does anyone know what day NYU plans to release regular decisions?

I am reading about all of these “tricks” to tell if you have been admitted on the portal … is it one button and no apps? Is it one button and undecided? It’s hard to follow lol

wait i applied rd, but what are some of the tricks for me to know for march?
When are rd decisions expected to come out? Their site says April 1st
When are candidate weekend invites coming out??
It does sound like the housing portal is an accurate indication of acceptance/rejection based on the ED pool. I wonder at what point they load the accurate info in. Does anyone applying RD have anything besides summer as an option in their housing portal?

Did any applicant who applied for financial aid get an IDOC request ? I got one yesterday morning. does this mean anything in the context of an admit/reject?
I DOC request for ED2 or RD?
for RD
Since NYU doesn’t require IDOC, I don’t think they would request it if they don’t have any interest or something. Hope it’s a good sign than anything, good luck!

anyone else got the request?
Isnt this something to do with the CSS profile? I heard NYU needs this even for merit based financial offers. If so, it might be good news for you. Good luck!!

Did anyone else get an email from NYU this morning asking you to apply to an alternate program of interest?
No. Did not receive that email.
