<p>literally flipped out… then I finished reading -_-</p>
<p>OMG. i almost had a heart attack</p>
<p>@eastcoast why you think rejection? LSP looks good!</p>
<p>Has anyone had their financial aid status changed WITHOUT being admitted to NYU?</p>
<p>@dorkfornewyork you are cruel you</p>
<p>@ilovegoldfish Yeah, you’re right, but I think they said you could call on Monday to receive the decision by phone if you don’t get an email, right?</p>
<p>It could also be an automated sending service, so if there’s a bug and some people are excluded as recipients, then they’ll deal with those cases individually. I’m not sure, though. Best case scenario, they’d be done by the late afternoon.</p>
<p>What is NYU’s average ACT/SAT? Not the range. The average</p>

<p>NYU 2012 Stats (According to this oh-so-very-trustworthy-please-hear-my-sarcasm-website)
[NYU</a> Admissions: SAT Scores, Financial Aid & More](<a href=“http://collegeapps.about.com/od/collegeprofiles/p/NYU.htm]NYU”>New York University: Acceptance Rate, SAT/ACT Scores, GPA)
[What</a> Do SAT Score Percentiles Mean? - An Explanation of What SAT Scores Mean in College Profiles](<a href=“http://collegeapps.about.com/od/sat/a/sat-score-explanation.htm]What”>An Explanation of 25th / 75th Percentile SAT Scores)</p>
<p>Test Scores – 25th / 75th Percentile
SAT Critical Reading: 620 / 710
SAT Math: 630 / 740
SAT Writing: 640 / 730</p>
<p>That would mean
665 CR
685 M
685 W</p>
<p>= 2035</p>
<p>If my (already speculative) calculations are correct, then 50% of the ENROLLED NYU students of 2012 who submitted the SAT for reasoning had a score below 2035.</p>
<p>ACT Composite: 28 / 31
50% of the ENROLLED NYU students who submitted the ACT for considering had a score below 29/30.</p>
<p>I hope this helps.</p>
<p>anyone has anything for “to Do’s” under Financial Aid?
I had additional documents requested and it’s gone now after i submitted yesterday</p>

As far as stats are concerned – this means excluding all the other elements that truly MAKE an application – it seems logical that they look at GPA more than test scores. One measures your performance and dedication over a period of four years – ups+downs and how you are overall as a student – while the other is just a measure of how prepared you were one Saturday for a couple hours. Just my two cents.</p>
<p>I do brick they want NCP which is impossible for me to get so idk what they want me to do</p>
<p>leicamaster Schools like standardized test scores because they are just that standardized. Each high school/teachers grade differently and it is sometimes unfair to compare grades among certain high schools. I know my high school does not give any extra GPA points for honors classes while my cousin’s high school gives .5 pts for each honors class he takes. After 4 years it makes a big difference in your GPA. We also have one APUSH teacher that is very easy while the other one grades very hard.</p>
<p>@bigbooklover While you’re right to an extent, just remember most top schools (including NYU) recalculate a given GPA. What school you go to, and their reputation within NYU’s admissions team also plays a role. </p>
<p>Anyhow, let’s move on from stats and cease worrying about something out of our control at this very moment. Many CCers often forget that stats isn’t the only thing that gets you in… Essays, passion, portfolios, letters, interviews, ECs, etc. This is a holistic process.</p>
<p>Can’t we just say there’s more to it than your GPA / Scores. Some will have higher GPA well other will have better scores. Does that make one or the other more qualified? No. Also this is obv bias b/c high GPA low scores say GPA… High scores low GPA say scores. Lol not hostile just IMO. No one knows how they weigh things.</p>
<p>Agreed, while stats is generally accepted as a strong acceptance factor, it isn’t what pushes contestants into “great” schools. Don’t worry about GPA/SAT, obviously we knew what we had to aim for if NYU is our top choice</p>
<p>I thought it had been established NYU DOESN’T recalculate. Am I wrong?</p>
<p>@suspense22 The acceptance letter begins with “On half of the admissions committee, it is my honor and privilege to share with you that you have been admitted to the _____(school) at New York University. Congratulations! I could not be more excited to welcome you to NYU.”</p>
<p>@Rocky don’t know where you heard that, they definitely do recalculate based on your core curriculum. That’s how they adjust based on AP’s and honors…</p>
<p>I’m worried about my decision because I hear Stern is so much more selective than the other schools…maybe I should have put down an alternate like LSP, too late now.</p>
<p>Stern is very selective for sure, one of the reasons many people apply there! (Like myself) There’s no fun if there isn’t a challenge
