<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>When i started looking for american schools to apply to, i met someone who recommended me to apply to nyuad but forgot about it for a while. and one week ago, my mom said it would be a nice idea to apply since it's closer to my home country (i am an international student) and she is kind of afraid that i won't find friends in the us because i'm muslim(but i don't think so). So these last days, i've been looking up the school/environment and the opportunities it offers and i really like the school.</p>
<p>But i have some questions:
1. Do people actually enjoy their time at nyuad comparing to new york ? do they organise parties, hang out a lot or are they more into studying ?
2. Concerning the application, i think i will send the national examination we take in my country(baccalaureate) but i will take the SAT in november, and i am wondering if i should send it or not. What would be a good score for nyuad ?
Also, how important are EC ? And is it a better to apply ed than rd ?
3. And does the diploma of nuyad have the same recognition as nyu's one ? </p>
<p>Thank you for reading, and thank you in advance for your answers :)</p>
<p>Hey man. My name is Mike! I am applying for ED II January 1. NYUAD!!! 1-Abu Dhabi is an amazing city. Yes students do have fun in many kind of ways (I know some students there who are first year students) 2. I am taking my SAT in 5 days but thats just to understand it my self. I am not American. So after that I will retake it in December to achieve a high score. Feel free to send anything you want because they value the student from every point of view! A good score is anything above 2100 as I have seen their statistics. Math:740-800 CR:750-800. Well ED and RD, I can’t say anything about them but if your are solid sure about NYUAD (like me) go for ED. Btw one of the students I know was accepted with SAT score of 2060 and GPA 3.6 so don’t worry about scores because they are as important as you and your application. 3. About the diploma I don’t know.Where are you from? I’ll provide their e-mail and here is my facebook contact me and maybe we will be future classmates at NYUAD 
<a href=“http://www.nyuad.nyu.edu”>www.nyuad.nyu.edu</a> email them they will be happy to help you with anything! my facebook: Michael M.Meskhi</p>
<p>Thank you for your answer. It makes me feel more confident about applying early. I will apply ED I if i gather everything by the deadline! Did you already submit your application ? Are you going to the candidates weekend soon ?
I am actually a moroccan girl, i’ll send you a message on facebook if i have further questions :)</p>
<p>I am half Georgian half Belarus. No not yet due to my SAT and TOEFL I cannot gather my documents in time for ED I (November 1) but for ED II its possible as they advised me. I’ll know if I am invited to candidates week after submission 
I wanna wish good luck to both of us text me on fb i got lots and lots of things to tell ya about NYUAD and plus if u are taking sat I maybe we can share tips</p>
