Official NYU 2013 Transfer Thread

<p>@alowbryant
thx, good luck:)</p>

<p>guys, I still don’t have my Albert Username, should I call them(NYU)?</p>

<p>alowbryant, when did you submit your Common App and NYU supplement?</p>

<p>Hey guys! I wish goodluck to everyone on this thread, one more month of waiting <em>sigh</em>
I would really appreciate it if you could give me a feedback about my chances:
Applied to: CAS International Relations
Applied from: mid 150’s nationally ranked university in NY; im currently an international student majoring in economics
College GPA: 3.925 GPA in the first semester (took 4 classes only; 2 introductory, 1 intermediate and 1 advanced)
Credits: will have 33 by the end of the year (taking summer classes)
SAT/ACT: submitting ACT, took 2 times, highest was a 28 Composite (32 Math, 31 Science, 24 English, 23 Reading); if superscored, my Composite will be 29 (32 Math, 31 Science, 27 English, 24 Reading)
TOEFL: 110/120
Midterm Report: 4.0 GPA (taking 4 classes again; three introductory and 1 advanced; very nice comments from my professors)
HS GPA: around 3.80/4 Unweighted
LORs: got one from a PoliSci professor, should be solid (probably decent)
College ECs: i think its my weak point because im active in only 2 college clubs, but i interned for a city government and a national university during the winter break in my home country (located in central asia), also volunteered for a month at a hospital during the summer vacation in my home country
HS ECs: Student Govt President, soccer team captain, Model UN Club President, School newspaper business manager, yearbook designer, volunteer at my school
Also applied to: Columbia and a bunch of CUNYs. I think my chances for Columbia are slim because the classes I have taken are not rigorous enough, same might apply to my chances for NYU.
Thanks a tonnn!!!</p>

<p>alowbryant, I don’t have a username either. I submitted the application a few hours before deadline.</p>

<p>@vinney0605 I got it today. but I noticed that only my application fee was checked off.</p>

<p>BTW, according to NYU’s Thursday theory, tomorrow some admissions would be released.</p>

<p>good luck all</p>

<p>alowbryant, I heard about NYU releasing admissions on Thursday, but isn’t it too early to hear something from them? Since we’re still in April…</p>

<p>I really wish some people start hearing just so we have an idea… but seems a little bit early for that</p>

<p>Last year, some decisions were released in early April. I think those are the strongest applicants.</p>

<p>Do you guys have everything checked off?</p>

<p>I have everything checked off</p>

<p>is it possible to be a freshman spring transfer? if so, how can one have 32 credits in one semester? (are the credits supposed to be only from college?)</p>

<p>I have everything checked off, I completed everything early February. When can we expect to hear back?</p>

<p>I don’t have everything checked off =/ Should I relax and hope NYU will contact me in case they’re missing something? That’s what I was told…</p>

<p>I promised I would stop checking Albert everyday, but I can’t help myself…</p>

<hr>

<p>Yes, probably the strong ones will start hearing back from NYU! Oh yeah, not my case haha =/</p>

<p>When did you submit everything?</p>

<p>My scores are:</p>

<p>College GPA: 3.85
Credits: 45
SAT: 2050
HS GPA: 3.45
ECs: A couple clubs, no e-board positions.
Work Experience: Ran own business, an internship, etc.</p>

<p>I go to a top 50 business school. Transferring as a junior.</p>

<p>You think I have a good chance? Nervous.</p>

<p>I called them today,and the lady on the phone told me that everything’s received, but not everything got checked off yet…</p>

<p>@Overlord207 Are you applying to Stern? I think you have a decent chance.</p>

<p>I sent all my materials on mid-February.
I will give them a call to see if that’s the case then, that Albert is not updated! Thanks guys</p>

<p>And @Overlord207, you seem to have a good chance! </p>

<p>One more thing, I’m happy to see that many international students are applying to NYU as transfers! We’re in the same boat haha good luck for all of us :)</p>

<p>Just wondering… I heard Stern likes math courses but where did this information come from?</p>

<p>Tomorrow will be fun</p>

<p>Yes I am applying to NYU Stern.</p>

<p>What is tomorrow? We will hear back?</p>
