NYU NetIDs now working!

<p>phoenix, i agree with what matth (who, btw, says he knows people whove worked in the admissions office at nyu...who do you know?) said on page 6. for one, nyu has already referred the gsp kids. they couldnt do that without making their decisions at least over most of the cas/stern kids (who are the ones generally referred to gsp). also, i think nyu has been very clear that they have a very well-rounded approach to admission. if you look around at the stats of the kids accepted early decision, there are some who had really low sat scores (1800ish) or really low gpas (3.1-3.3), by nyu standards. </p>

<p>and why would colleges wait this late to look at applications seriously? with 35,000 applicants, do you really think nyu is going to give themselves less than ONE MONTH to make decisions/financial packages for most of them? no, i dont know a lot about how colleges work, but that just doesnt make any sense at all.</p>

<p>and no, i dont think that the whole 'oops we could check our email thing' necessarily means anything at all, but just out of curiosity, of course harvard doesnt give out email addresses until students declare intent, NO school does/would, but how do you know they dont create them ahead of time just in case, in order to save time? then just go back and delete the ones that dont accept? </p>

<p>(and for the record, mojojojoojo was accepted ed so he wasnt stating any of that for "something to help him sleep at night," whereas you werent able to access your account which gives you motive to want to believe it doesnt mean anything. i was able to, but like i said, i dont think it means anything at all either)</p>

<p>I was accepted early decision, it really doesn't matter to me one way or the other.</p>

My guidance counseler used to work at Harvard admissions and I know someone who works at BC. They are actually in the admissions committee, not student interns. BTW, didnt matth also say that NYU missing info emails were sent out a "weeks ago"?</p>

LoL for the third time, all colleges look at the SAT scores/GPA and sort them into groups first. That's how schools(including Ivys) are able to determine who to send likely letters to. Those with high GPA and low SAT scores were referred to GSP. In fact because I'm missing a Physics class requirement for Cornell College of Engineering, they told me that my application would not be evaluated until mid-march after they are finished with all of the "completed" applications, and that I still had time to switch my application to CAS if I wanted my application to be evaluated now with the other "completed" ones.</p>

NYU, along with most other colleges, sent out their missing requirement emails over the past two weeks...</p>

Learn more about servers and email addresses before asking that question ;)</p>

From his last post, it's hard to believe that he was accepted early :) Perhaps he's wishing a friend of his to be accepted.</p>

<p>As for myself, I applied to NYU as a match-safety. Last year, 90%(roughly) of students with a 3.4+ weighted from my HS was accepted. My SAT scores are also well within the top 25% for NYU applicants. One could never predict to a high accuracy of where they will and will not be accepted, but I think I have a pretty good shot. </p>

<p>Point is: a school would never create student service accounts for students who only applied and had not declared intent, especially for a common ivy-league safety school like NYU. This is the only thing that I was trying to say. I didn't mean to offend anyone ;)</p>

<p>1.) What's that supposed to mean?, and 2.) Perhaps you're not only wrong, but should also stop being so presumptuous.</p>

Well, let's be honest: the statement from NYU is probably just a lie because they didn't want to reveal admission decisions before they <em>meant</em> to. If you're an RD applicant and managed to get a NetID, well, I'm going to guess that pretty much means you're in. And if you <em>couldn't</em> access it, either they haven't made a decision or you've been rejected, but more than likely it's the latter

</p>

<p>You were saying?</p>

146

<p>First of all, you're taking my words out of context. How convenient that you omitted the entire rest of my post where I clearly explained why I believe "you've probably been rejected" is more likely the case than, "they haven't decided yet." Secondly, my assumptions were at least based on some smidgeon of reason and evidence, not clueless presumptions and judgements about someone I don't know anything about, nor were they delivered with your kind of pompousness.</p>

<p>And you didn't explain what you were trying to imply with that, "It's hard to believe that he was accepted early," remark of yours.</p>

147

<p>=) i love pointless message board arguments. we'll all find things out come end of march/beginning of april.</p>

<p>im outta here. have fun guys</p>

148

<p>^This is sort of pointless, isn't it?</p>

<p>It doesn't really matter. We don't know what the heck happened with the NetIDs. We won't officially know who got in until April.</p>

<p>LoL I just copy&pasted the first three lines of your post.</p>

<p>What reason and "evidence"? The people who supposidly could log in never posted their stats. In fact, I think there were plenty of "evidence" that being able to log in didn't mean anything, including an official letter for NYU.</p>

I believe I used words such as "perhaps" and "maybe", unlike yourself, who used "probably" and "most likely".</p>

<p>EDIT: Again, my point was that a school would never create student service accounts for students who only applied and had not declared intent. I think I got that point through, so I'm going to stop arguing with you ;)</p>

150

<p>I was thinking about this thread today; this girl I know and I tried to make the accounts and were able to, and we've both been accepted. My other friend, who couldn't make one, didn't get a letter yet. Interesting.</p>

151

<p>I received a Sunday at the Square invitation and could not make an account... Give up</p>

152

<p>Ph0enix, you're my hero. </p>

<p>keep the faith alive.</p>

153

<p>four shore.</p>

154

<p>I got the NYU NetID, but I cant log in to NYUHome.</p>

155

<p>When I tried to log on I got this:</p>

<p>Only current members of the NYU community are eligible to use this function. </p>

<p>What does that mean?</p>

156

<p>i received an invite to sunday at the square and was able to get my email and log in to nyu home...but it does seem a bit odd that they would let people do that before decisions were even sent out?</p>

157

<p>ccording to our records you are not eligible at this time to hold an NYU password. As a result, you may not use the ITS Start Service.</p>

<p>Please contact ITS Client Services at 1-212-998-3333 if you feel this information is in error.</p>

<p>i get this</p>

158

<p>wow i randomly came upon this thread...it started awhile ago! for kicks i popped in my university ID and got a netid...but didnt do anything else out of fear. lol</p>

<p>have we come to a consensus this may be good news if we could form one? possibly? eh? :-) ? aw, wishful thinking.</p>

<p>Students,</p>

<p>Please be advised that the Undergraduate Admissions Office at New York University considers it a serious offense to have students abusing technology in this way. There are two issues here. First, students who have been provided personal information posting this information on-line in a general forum. And second, other students pursuing information which they know has not yet been made available to them.</p>

<p>There are a number of ways that our office can indeed verify the identity of students who have posted on this site and we certainly can access information about who may have already activated a Net-ID prior to receiving a notification letter from our institution. Individuals can anticipate that these actions could potentially have serious repercussions with regards to their application to our institution.</p>

<p>Should you have questions regarding this matter please be encouraged to contact our office at 212/998-4500.</p>

<p>lol.... glad that I have not been able to log in... thats pretty scary, the message from the Admissions Rep......they do monitor us! How many colleges are out there that do not post?! Mass-mania!</p>
