<p>lol. i heard somewhere that the top 20% of the class gets stern scholar? or maybe 10-15 percent, cuz there's like 120 kids who are scholars or something like that.</p>
<p>moose, it's mostly a morning thing, but it can extend into the afternoon a little, with tours and stuff like that</p>
<p>Total size of Stern undergrad. school is 2100 students, so perhaps 500 freshmen each year? The avg. SAT is 1412, and the avg. GPA is 3.74.
afaforce, are you saying that there is a total of 120 Stern Scholars each freshman year, or 120 in the entire Stern undergrad. program??
120 each year makes for a 25% rate of merit awards.
Anyhow, I hear that some of the awards can be quite crappy. Anyone care to guess what Stern Scholars get offered?
Annual tuition is $30430, and then R&B is $13,000.</p>
<p>wait who gets invited to this? I applied to Stern and have not yet received one. But my SAT is 1450 and GPA is 94, does it only go out to the elite of the elite?</p>
<p>Like I said before, kids, NYU gives out a total of 400 merit awards annually. Total, as in all NYU colleges. Approximately top 10%. There's no way that everyone who received an invite is going to be a Stern scholar. Unless, of course, they include everyone who gets a merit award as a Stern scholar. Keep in mind the merit awards, again, like I already said, range from $1000 to $25,000. The big ones are few and far between. Most people get a few thousand, that's it. There's no way that all of you are going to get those big scholarships. It just doesn't happen.</p>
<p>i would probably post that as its own topic because this is about sunday at the square and i dont even think tisch was involved in this! more people will respond if you make it a topic. :)</p>
<p>Hmm.. I didn't get a Sunday invite but today I got an invitation to a "College of Arts and Science Reception" on April 8th or 15th - does this mean anything, or do they send it to everyone?</p>
<p>Hey, this is my first post here. My mom is obsessed with my college application process and reads these boards every day though.</p>
<p>Today I got my Sunday in the Square invite to Tisch. My GPA is crap (85.6) and my SATs are reasonable (1450), so I felt I wasn't going to be able to get into a school as good as NYU (cause of my GPA).</p>
<p>Does this mean I'm in? Can I start partying and slacking off in school?</p>
