@Smartisan5 You going for RD or ED II?
ED 2, I hope NYU will consider my family’s extremely low income
Are u guys doing HEOP to other colleges, I did some other colleges for HEOP.
I’m doing it for Stony Brook , Barnard , Binghampton , Bard , And Cornell but NYU is my #1
Oh and I also did it for Fordham too
I have no clue if I’ll even get in tho it’s so scary to think about
@Smartisan5 I did EOP to all SUNYs, SEEK to all CUNYs, and HEOP to Fordham, NYU, and Columbia. However, I got kicked out from EOP from some of the SUNYs already. Sad
@Farahana @Smartisan5 Did you guys talk about HEOP in WHY NYU essay?
I didn’t
I did HEOP to Fordham, stony brook, Rochester, union, Colgate, and Hamilton, and Cornell. Hope I get in to one of them. But NYU is my first choice
Did u guys received a email saying that you and your parent are invited to a workshop for financial aid ??. Do that mean anything
@Smartisan5 No, all I received is an email that explains Financial Aid.
