<p>Hello all. I am a junior (2009-2010) and I have seriously been looking at NYU/ Tisch School. I am extremely interested in their film program. I am applying to their high school summer program for 2010. If I get in, and complete the program I will apply to attend college there. I have a 3.9 GPA. I have a pretty bleh ACT, 24. I plan on doing practice tests to improve my score. I’m in a wide range of extracurricular activities. I am in an Independent Study Class with Computer Applications. It is a one-on-one class. I create short films, and edit them with Final Cut Pro. I am in charge of stage production in my school’s theatre (lights and sound booth). I am in the National Honor Society, and there are several other things that I could mention. Honestly, do I even remotely have a shot?</p>
<p>Absolutely. I think it is good that you are aiming for the precollege program. Try to improve your score. You just don’t know too you apply.</p>
<p>Anyone applying to Cap 21 please message me. :)</p>
<p>I basically made the same decision as you Alana, and I’m asking my teachers for reccs for the program tomorrow and im pretty nervous about it. Only thing is im a sophomore so my chance are alot more slim but I’ve been really working on my essay and resume. I just hope my teachers actually put some heart into their reccs. Wish you all the best :)</p>
<p>You willnot get in with a 24 on the ACT. NYU is very strict on their mission for equal exposure to both your intended artistic major and liberal arts. I suggest studying and retaking that. It also helps to have a few AP exams. They like comm service. Multiple interests other than your major and people with personality.</p>
<p>I recently auditioned for the new Bway studio and stayed in Gramercy with a few MT major friends. And this is what they told me and all had in common.</p>
<p>I am definitely going to retake the ACT. I not I am not getting in with a 24. I’m mainly looking at the High School Summer Program, which does not look at your ACT score. I plan to raise my score before applying to ANY colleges. I have plenty of other interests to write down, I only wrote the ones that were relevant to film. </p>
<p>And Azizi2012 I hope you get in. Yea, I have the Director Of Technology and my English teacher doing my recommendations. (: Wish you the best as well.</p>
