Transfer Questions for NYU...

<p>What does NYU look for in a transfer student? I am going to apply there as a junior for Fall of 2009. Can anyone give me some general pointers? Thanks!</p>

<p>I was wondering the same. I was accepted when I applied in high school and may want to transfer into the college of arts and sciences. Do you think this gives me an advantage?</p>

<p>do i need to fulfill these requirements?

<p>I am also applying as a Junior for Fall '09.</p>

<p>Generally, I think they have the same expectations for transfers as they do for freshman students. Strong academic standing, ECs, and so on. I hope they cut us some slack, since we've already proven we can do the work!</p>

<p>I have one more semester to show them what I got. So my game plan is join another club, get involved with community service (applied yesterday for that) and to do some more ECs (possibly helping in more fashion shows and joining the community board here at school).</p>

<p>raacheeel, yes you'll probably have to take those classes when you transfer over, unless maybe you've taken courses they consider equivalent to it, you'd probably have to call the admissions office for a good answer.</p>

<p>I don't know if it's just Stern or not, but I know it's very difficult to transfer into Stern.</p>

<p>I transferred to NYU from CUNY for the spring semester 2008. </p>

<p>While this thread is dated a few weeks ago, I figured I would respond to the benefit of other transfers.</p>

<p>I am a Media, Culture and Communications major in Steinhardt School of Culture, Ed. and Human Development with a double major in Politics in CAS. </p>

<p>I am also the secretary of the Transfer Student Association and a Welcome Week Leader.</p>

<p>Stern is very, very difficult to transfer into. Even current NYU students have a difficult time. </p>

<p>I applied with a 3.46 GPA, extracurricular activities and two internships. </p>

<p>I completed my MAP requirements here at NYU and concentrated on classes at CUNY that would bring up my GPA. I did not take math or foreign language at CUNY. They don't expect you to have finished your liberal arts requirements at the other school. I was actually a politics major in CUNY and I applied to NYU under the media major because I figured there would be less competition.</p>

<p>For comparison, I was rejected ED in 2006 with a 93 gpa, AP classes, and a ton of extracurriculars. My SATs were 690v 550m. I took two SAT IIs but I don't remember the grades. </p>

<p>From talking to other transfers, I've found that most people who applied to CAS had much higher GPAs. My roommate/best friend here applied to CAS Politics and had a 3.7 from Drew University. </p>

<p>I can answer any other questions if people are still reading this thread. . .</p>

<p>Ok, I just sent my application in for Stern and ordered my transcripts. I would love to have someone who is familiar with transfers Chance me.</p>
