Official ED Thread Class of 2014!

<p>@gracejaeyoon</p>

<p>Thanks so much! These days i’ve been desperately needing a confidence boost so thanks for helping! my gpa is low but it’s only because i was an idiot freshman year but ive had a huge increase from then to now which they will hopefully take into consideration. Do you have a website with your portfolio I would love to see it! Where are you from? Hopefully I’ll be seeing you in class in the fall!</p>

<p>ALSO… is anybody else kinda relieved that today is sunday. Im so happy i don’t need to stress all day about weather my letter is going to come or not.</p>

<p>But when I went to the infosesh they said people applying to art programs are going to have their test scores and gpa looked at less. I hope they realize I just had a poor freshman year.
Frosh GPA: 2.7 (I SUCK)
SOPH GPA: 3.0
JUNR GPA: 3.4
First Term of Senior Year: A, A-, A-, B+</p>

<p>Obviously my gpa has gotton better but my cumulative GPA is still a 3.1 :frowning: do they really look at every year? will they take this into consideration?</p>

<p>@marramb10 Only after reading you last post have i started to look at today as a stress less day. honestly, yesterday afternoon, when i didnt recieve a decision in the mail i kept thinking that Sunday would be awful without a mail delivery to search through. But I guess you are right. Today i just focus on other things, and NYU can reclaim its importance in my mind tomorrow.</p>

<p>i’m glad I was able to calm your nerves haha. Is anybody in here from Boston?? I feel like everyone is either from NY or Cali</p>

<p>haha i’m from st louis… i don’t think there’s another midwesterner on here >.< and yeah, it seems like it’s ALL east coast/cali/international.</p>

<p>@ guitargirl</p>

<p>all the better for you :slight_smile: Yeah, one year NYU accepted 23 people from my school, ED. This year at least 5 applied (so far one got in, but he got the phone call because he’s a candidate for NYU Abu Dhabi), which is sort of surprising because of the economy (then again, two students have parents that work at NYU…)</p>

<p>At least you have a regional hook haha</p>

<p>for those accepted/denied, what does the envelope look like? is it a letter envelope or one of those large ones? does it have a lot of stuff in it or not? Applied ED to NYU Stern/Business and Political Economy Program. I’m in Ohio and have not heard yet.</p>

<p>um… holy FRICK. 23, ed!? aye yai yai! and jeez, i guess so. didn’t even know i could count on that, haha.</p>

<p>I live in NY - that’s probably why I heard already. Good luck to everyone! I hope you hear on Monday!</p>

<p>@mukula</p>

<p>I got a reply by e-mail already, but it was in the e-mail telling me that I was a finalist for the Abu Dhabi thing, so I’m not sure they would send you one now even if you have been accepted, if you aren’t a finalist for NYUAD.</p>

<p>@portcolumbus</p>

<p>apparently if you are accepted you are supposed to recieve a big package and if you get rejected its just an envelope? i’m not completely positive but thats what i’ve been hearing.</p>

<p>thanks. I know that that’s the status quo for colleges but I wasn’t sure about NYU. Hope to hear back tomorrow…so nervous.</p>

<p>the letter comes in a big white envelope and then inside there is a purple folder that says congratulations and welcome. and then inside the folder, there is your official letter of acceptance and like booklets of information of what to do.

  • and the mailman delivered it. it was postmarked for the 11th of december and i got it yesterday because i live like 40 min away from nyu.</p>

<p>sweet. thanks for the information. what college did u apply to?</p>

<p>@marramb10,
It’s funny that you should ask that because I actually lost my thumbdrive that had all my files on it.</p>

<p>Luckily I still have my artist statement but I do have a website that had my art AP stuff from last year?
Some of the pieces (like 9?) from my flickr account were used in the portfolio:
so you can take a look here </p>

<p>I got the same envelope, class 2014! I have a question though… How do you find about about tuition costs and if you received and merit scholarship or anything…</p>

<p>@collegereally?</p>

<p>I applied to hotel management.
Glad to see that I’m not the only one.
I can’t find ANY information on it!</p>

<p>does the envelope say anything about a deposit??</p>

<p>I hear that your official OFFER of admission with financial aid and stuff like that comes a bit later.</p>

<p>ohhh gotchya. ****. i was really hoping i would get financial info beforehand. i guess that means your admission really has nothing to do with whether or not you applied for financial aid. they’re probably still working on that now.</p>
