NYU Stern

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I'm currently a junior in high school and hope to attend NYU Stern at some point in my life whether its directly after high school or as a transfer student.
Im mostly a B student (honors scale) taking all honors and ap classes
with a GPA of 4.3/5
30 on my ACT
2000 on my SAT and my ecs are decent (About 5 clubs, 1 varsity sport every season, nhs, 100+ volunteer hours and internships)</p>

<p>I know i'm way less than an ideal student for Stern, which is why I was wondering if it would be a better idea to attend another college and transfer into Stern, or just go for it and apply ED in november...</p>

<p>Please also let me know if there's anything more i can do at this point to increase my chances! thanks</p>

<p>p.s It would also help if you let me know where I stand in regards to getting admitted with the stats I have now; I won't be offended if you say I have absolutely no chance so be honest and give me your best advice! </p>

<p>Stern is a school where tons of straight A students & 2300+ students get rejected every year. I would really try to pull up your SAT while you still have time to at least over 2150/2200. Then I would really focus on writing a killer essay.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t count on transferring into Stern. Its transfer admission rate is about 2% (Last year they accepted only 25 transfer students out of 1000+ applicants)</p>

<p>Another option is to try to get into NYU CAS first and then try to transfer into Stern internally b/c Stern is much more lenient with internal transfers than external transfers. However honestly speaking, it seams like even NYU CAS is a reach for you right now.</p>
