<p>How easy is it to transfer to American University or New York University? Does anyone have some statsitics or experience with these two schools?</p>
<p>Thanks! :)</p>
<p>american isn't my first choice, but i'm also applying there for next fall.</p>
<p>Cool! Kepp us updated with your progress!</p>
<p>The only stats I can offer are these... which for American look very promising (e.g. 65% acceptance rate is nice) and for NYU look average (35% acceptance rate). Anyways, good luck to the both of you, I'm sure you'll do well.</p>
<p>School - #Applied/#Accepted</p>
<p>NYU - 4692/1641
American - 1463/950</p>
<p>Good luck once more,

<p>Thanks! Wow... American accepts a lot of transfers. That's good! :)</p>
<p>American...will accept anyone with a pulse
NYU...moderately easy to get in, just write an outstanding essay and they'll let you in. But I guess that applies to just about any school</p>
<p>Calidan, I had stated on previous posts that my wife will teaching at American this fall. She is finishing up her Master's at Trinity College (DC).
I got into American without any problem.
However, with your creditials, I hope you wouldn't choose a 3rd-tier school. I'm not saying American is bad, I just don't care for it.</p>
<p>American isn't a "3rd Tier" school</p>
<p>When I went through the whole process with my wife teaching there, I came to the conclusion that it is a 3rd-tier school... in my eyes.</p>
<p>Well I'm sorry but you came to the wrong conclusion...at least by the USNEWS standards and thats pretty much the holy grail as far as rankings are concerned...its really stupid.</p>
<p>I'll tell you from experience that the education at a no name state school in hicksville is hardly any differnt from that at a top 25 first tier school</p>
<p>I totally agree with you.
I was just referring to how poorly my wife and I were treated by American. I felt they were very unprofessional. I'm sure they aren't always like that, but the first impression is a lasting impression.
It has nothing to do with rankings, just from personal experience.</p>
<p>Oh, this isn't for me!- It's for my older brother. He is the one who wants to transfer to NYU or American.</p>
<p>Thanks for the help! :)</p>
<p>I'd rather be in Washington DC than New York...maybe because I grew up in New York and would wan't something different but I believe if I was going to make a choice based purely on education, I would have to pic NYU. That school is extremely underratted, some of the professors there are noble loreates, you have access to every oppertunity in the world for a mere 2 dollars...much much more I could say on this but I'm sure you know alot about it already</p>
<p>bump... anybody else have an experience or info relating to these schools?</p>
