Any shot at some scholarships? Probably pushing my luck there lol :’)
I had similar stats and was accepted. I’ve heard it’s only around 6 scholarships given out by Stern a year and you have to be really really impressive.
Stern is absolutely amazing so far! Don’t believe all the competitive anti-social shit you read online. NYU is a university of amazingly diverse people, as long as you are outgoing and willing to learn and work the system Stern will be a great choice for you. I’ve only been here a week, but so far I don’t regret my choice one bit.
