@elisefawkes don’t forget to fill out the waitlist form and not sure if it strengthens ur chances if you write a letter/email reaffirming your strong interest and basically saying that you will 100% attend if accepted?? I know for smaller schools that plays a big part
haven’t gotten any sort of email??? and there’s nothing (acceptance or rejection) on my portal … is that bad?
@etherealex no it’s not bad!! it’s weird that you can’t see your decision on the portal though. did you click on admissions status and allow pop up on your computer/phone? on their twitter they specifically said they’re still sending out emails tho so I wouldn’t stress
@italianno thank you so much!
I can’t believe the admissions process is over for me… I still keep refreshing college confidential out of habit
ACCEPTED!
Global Liberal Studies Program B.A
is there a fb group or something for admitted students?
how many people applied for how many spots for CAS? trying to get an idea of the acceptance rate this year
Did anyone get into the honors program
@camwow CONGRATULATIONS!! It’s so nice to see people on college confidential rooting for each other. really freaking happy for you & your acceptance and amazing scholarship. SEE YOU THIS FALL?
@takinpelu haha i don’t think we have any official data considering today is the decisions date, but I would guess lower than last year
Rejected by NYU Stern. GPA 3.82/SAT 1550. Kinda surprised at the rejection but my ECs were more STEM-related than business-related, which is probably the reason.
@chaplin_house yup, there are multiple Facebook groups. Just search “NYU class of 2021” and you’ll see two official groups. Just request and someone will let you in. I think there’s also separate groups for specific schools like Tisch cas steinhardt stern etc etc
@indiahyland thank you that means a lot to me! and hopefully I will!
ACCEPTED into Gallatin!! sooo excited because NYU is my dream school!! w gpa 4.2, 29 ACT, pretty sure my essay probably helped a ton, tons of extra curriculars
For the financial aid, what do the things in the offered section represent
@indiahyland there’s not even an admissions status button to click … i guess they haven’t released my decision at all yet? it’s making me super nervous though
