<p>i would say you are a great fit for steinhardt. and not to be rude or anything but being a Hispanic mail definitely helps since you are an underrepresented minority.</p>

<p>however i remembering reading somewhere, actually on the official NYU forum that the admissions official said the … in fact here:</p>

<p>“The Nutrition and Food Studies program is relatively small and highly selective. Approximately 25 students will enroll each year.”</p>

<p>best of luck</p>

<p>a great fit? i’m not sure if being an underrepresented minority would help for a program that enrolls 25 people…</p>

<p>i think your gpa’s above average, but your sat1 and sat2 scores are a bit low. i’d say it’s a reach for you.</p>

<p>Wow i didn’t realize that it was such a small program. Although, the number of people they accept shouldn’t make a huge difference if not a lot of people apply. I mean if the acceptance rate is still around 25% it shouldn’t really matter that much. Thanks!</p>
