Hey! I applied to NYU CAS through HEOP. Please tell me if I have a good chance or not. (Also applied to LSP as an alternative choice).
GPA - 3.4 out of 4.0
SAT - 1640 (On the NYU website, it says that the CR+Math scores for accepted NYU HEOP students range from 1000-1250. My CR+Math combined falls within that range.)
ACT - 24 (super scored)
Financial info - I definitely qualify financially. (Parents together make way less than the cut off)
Extracurriculars - Student Government, Debate Team, Class Officer, Teacher’s assistance, Peer Educator and Counselor at an organization, Tutoring, Family Responsibilities, Student Judge, Editor for School’s newspaper, Raise money to give to people in need in other countries (Raised $3,000+am the president of that club), and I have other smaller activities that aren’t as impressive.
I’ve also been a part of many walks (breast cancer walks, leukemia walks, etc).
Counselor Rec - Really good. My counselor and I are very close. She talked a lot about my potential to succeed in a challenging school. Also mentioned that I hold many leadership positions.
Two teacher recs - The first one is okay (nothing spectacular). The second one is good.
Personal essay - Topic: Transition from childhood to adulthood within my community (Talked about the time I spoke out in front of hundreds of people and talked to them about discrimination. I explained how my speech helped people gain confidence, etc etc. I also mentioned how this furthered my passion for advocacy.
Classes: My classes are very tough. Taking plenty of AP courses+honor classes. I go to a challenging school as well.

Strongly depends when you applied. Did you apply ED or RD ?

Oh really? That’s even better! And I applied rd, but like you said… It depends on when you applied… @pleasedonot

Good luck to you! I’ll keep this form updated, if i get contacted for an interview!
Can i ask what was your sec choice aside from CAS ?

Thanks, you too !! And I don’t recall tbh @pleasedonot

I just got an email from Bing saying I don’t qualify academically for EOP. Does this mean I won’t for NYU either?

I’m really nervous guys. Lol.
