Official NYU Transfers for Spring 2008 Thread

<p>Hey y'all, I thought I might as well make a thread for people who wish to apply to NYU for spring '08. Post stats, questions, etc. Fall can be another thread. Lets just keep this one for the spring.</p>

<p>I'm hoping to apply for spring and have posted my stats below, so if someone could please give me feedback.</p>

<p>Current school: University of Houston
GPA: 4.0/4.0 with 45 units (As of now) Taking 13 in the fall.
Year: Second year in college
Major: Business, so i'll be applying to Stern
SAT: 1070/1600 (570 math, 500 verbal) Hope they don't look at it too much.
Excellent essays and great EC's</p>

<p>I was accepted to USC for fall '07, but am rejecting it due to the enormous amount of money. I know, I know, NYU is just as much, but this gives me a semester to save.</p>

<p>My EC's are following:</p>

<p>High School Basketball team Varsity
Manager of Precious Collections (Wholesale Store) (Employee for 2 years, manager for 1 and continuing)
Halliburton (Dec '06-Jun '07)
Smart Financial employee (H.S. senior year)
Research done with a professor
Head camp counselor in 2005 and '06
City Youth Club President
Computer Resources Manager
MSA Member
Active AKF Member
Participate in conferences for the I.I.S.
Library Volunteer
Organized a Christmas Feast for the needy
Cross-Country in high school J.V.
Track in high school J.V.
Alpha Lambda Delta National Honor Society
Dean's list</p>

<p>Any shot?</p>

<p>You can apply to Stern for only the fall semester. Your SATs are low, how did you do in HS?</p>

<p>That's right. only for fall</p>

<p>DAMMIT. fall only? I was hoping to apply for spring. I will be a junior but am going abroad in the fall. Can you apply to CAS if you were in the business school before? Some of my info...</p>

<p>Current school: Santa Clara University
GPA: 3.552
HS GPA: 3.86 at very competitive jesuit private school
SAT: 1370/1600
really strong essays, good ECs for HS and college (comparable to everyone else i'd say), two marketing internships, lots of work and volunteer experience</p>

<p>I'm worried my college gpa is going to ruin it for me :(</p>

<p>Does anyone know if I transfer to NYU Gallatin for Spring 2008, the second semester of my freshman year, will I get housed with the other freshman? Will I get a freshman transfer roomate? (and I know second semester freshman transfers are not allowed for CAS, but are for Gallatin)</p>

<p>windylane: I noticed that you did apply for standing this upcoming fall and was not admitted. You should apply for the summer or fall.</p>

<p>You can re-apply to NYU after 1 full year. Aside from that, you would be essentially submitting the same application, with the exception of your short essay/personal statement. </p>

<p>My purpose is not to discourage you. Although you cannot apply for the spring, you should consider applying for the summer or fall. It would be beneficial for you to do so.</p>
