NYU Merit Scholarship?

<p>If I apply regular decision, is there still a chance I can receive a merit based scholarship? I love NYU, but I can't pay for it :(</p>

<p>Hoping to get into Stern.</p>

<p>Stats:
ACT - 33
GPA (un, w) - 3.95, 4.33
SAT II - Chem 710, math 2 700</p>

<p>It’s always possible, but it will be extremely tough to get one from Stern, even with great stats. Your SAT II’s are on the low side.</p>

<p>I don’t have to submit my SAT though right? You can just submit the ACT scores and it’ll cover it?</p>

<p>Yeah, the just the ACT will cover it.
I was wondering that too before. I was going to send in my SAT Math Level II, but I only have a 640 as of right now with a 31 superscored ACT (32 on Math). I would imagine sending my SAT II will hurt more than it will help.</p>

<p>Does NYU superscore the ACT? I thought they only superscore the SAT.</p>

<p>I visited last week and physically asked the Welcome Center. Yes they do superscore the ACT, at least as of this year.</p>

<p>I won the MLK scholarship at NYU-Stern last year, when I applied. I believe this scholarship was 25000 a year + an additional 10,000 a year in travel/leisure money. This was particularly generous as it was merit-based. In any case, I did not attend NYU, and am currently a freshman at Duke University.</p>

<p>Wow. What were your stats to win that?</p>

<p>And if you don’t believe me, look here: [ACT</a> “superscore” - Topic Powered by Eve Community](<a href=“http://nyu.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/9834033161/m/625105775]ACT”>http://nyu.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/9834033161/m/625105775)</p>

<p>Really? Awesome! That means my ACT score is one point higher.</p>

<p>Lol. I went up one point too. I retaking them on Saturday, so hopefully i can get a 32 superscore.</p>

<p>What were your stats? I really really want a scholarship so I can attend!</p>

<p>And my ACT isn’t superscored…</p>
