** NYUAD CLASS OF 2021 - ED1 **

Hey! Im also an ED1 applicant…Im from Republic of Moldova (Eastern Europe).

@dima98 heey nice to meet you
What kind of exams do you give in Moldova?

If you’re new to this forum then make sure you join the ‘NYUAD - Class of 2021’ FB page!

Nice to meet you too ! Generally we have only our national exam at the end of our senior year…I think that our educational systems and curriculum are extremly different :slight_smile: I also past the TOEFL test btw…

Hey, guys, I applied to ED1 at NYUAD. I am an Indian studying in China (15 years here; I’m more Amer-Chin-Indian; in no particular order) and I just came across this post! You guys have such an impressive arsenal of academic and extracurricular experience. That’s fantastic! I seriously hope I get to meet you all through the CW. It seems like it’d be a phenomenal few days.

There was some talk about the check marks on Albert and I got both of mine (just checked today), if anyone was wondering. Also, just wanted to confirm if anyone else knows if we’re getting information about CW (whether one is invited or not) by mid-November? I honestly couldn’t find that information anywhere and I was just assuming it’d be sometime at the end of November; see, now I’m all nervous hahah

Anyways, just hoping to get to know you guys better in hopes to see y’all at CW; I’m super excited!

@dima98 so you have predicted scores for your final senior exam? Or what did you send to NYUAD?

@niniack Hey nice to meet you!! Thank you, but you can always find people more impressive :slight_smile:
What curriculum do you follow? Would you mind sharing grades and extracurriculars too?

I’ve only got one tick on Albert for "high school transcript. I don’t know if this is normal or if I should be worried. Yeah we’ll be getting CW invites by mid-November from what I know but then you either get an email invite or you don’t. Same - I’ll be on the nerve this whole month.

Yeah same, fingers crossed.

@13thElvishLord I go to the british school in abu dhabi :slight_smile:

@niniack Hi! CW emails are most likely to be sent out between 13- 17th of November. Not 100% sure but that’s what I heard from my friend who got accepted last year to NYUAD plus NYUAD forums here and there :slight_smile:
Mine only has the highschool transcript ticked. Did you send in your SATs or ACTs by any chance?

@13thElvishLord Yeah I sent predicted scores…:slight_smile:

@niniack Yeah same!! Only the first box is ticked and its beginning to worry me.

@13thElvishLord Hey, I wouldn’t worry much about not having the second considering you didn’t send in SAT/ACT scores. It does say on there that “non traditional” (IB, AP, A Levels, etc.) scores will take longer to be processed. Plus, it hasn’t even been four weeks for you, has it?

@dreamncatcheryu The funny thing is I did apply with both my SAT and my IB Predicteds; however, on the CommonApp, I only wrote down IB. Somehow, they’re takin 'em all.

Thanks guys for the CW info btw! Oh man, it shifted my entire panic schedule.

@niniack I guess you are right… Nope, its been only a week since I sent in my application.

I guess we ll all be bundles of nerves by about 15th.

Hey guys are all of your boxes on Albert ticked ?

@Dima98 Nope. Only the first one - “high school transcripts”. What about you?

@13thElvishLord only the box with the English Language Proficiency test :frowning: A bit worried why i don`t have the box about transcript ticked

@dima98 I didnt require english proficiency tests so I dont have that box whatsoever. I’m a bit worried about the “standardised tests” box not being ticked for me but as some people already said here, tests that are not SATs and ACTs take a while to process. Also, I’ve been told that they ll contact our counselors/ us if something is missing so I think we have no reason to worry. :slight_smile:

Hey!
I also applied for NYU Abu Dhabi early decision 1. I’m a UAE national.
I actually talked to someone at admissions who told me all my papers are there even though neither box has a check. So don’t worry too much! :wink:

Nervous for the CW email

@naturenymph oh haha thats a little encouraging!! Do you follow the UAE curriculum or something else? I’m just a person living in the UAE :slight_smile:

I went through the American system. I actually was living in America until grade 5. That’s when I moved to UAE, but I continued in an American curriculum school. I did take the Cepa though because my school is private but still with the government. I don’t understand it 100%,but yeah (–:

@naturenymph ooooh I see. I thought that private schools didnt do the Cepa, though. Its weird. Anyways, nice to meet you :slight_smile:

it’s not mandatory, but I did it anyways. Most of the students did it because they failed the SAT. Which is kinda sad. )-: Nice to meet you too! (-:
