<p>Hi, I just graduated from High School. I applied to NYU this year but sadly, did not get in. Instead, I am now going to the University of Miami. It's free for me because my dad works for the medical school anyways. I was wondering what the process, statistics, chances, etc. was for transferring after freshman year for sophomore year to NYU. NYC is where my heart is and I love NYU. I would love to be able to study there for my sophomore year. I am not even sure when the applying for transferring begin. Many say it is easier to get into college by transferring but is that true with NYU? I would most probably apply to the College of Arts and Sciences, btw.</p>
<p>I just recently finished my freshman year at University of Rhode island and decided to transfer into NYU. Got accepted into CAS as an economics major for fall as a sophomore. I had a 3.76 GPA, lots of leadership-esk EC’s (get involved BIG TIME) and write a solid essay. Also, you’ll need professor rec’s, so get friendly. make sure partying does get out of hand as well haha. High school grades and SAT/ACT’s dont matter very much (mine sucked, hence me going to URI). Just do well freshman year. Ps. I also got an interview with NYU.</p>
<p>Thank you soo much! Did you get an interview when you were applying, or did you go before? What kind of things were you involved in? Do you mean like clubs?</p>
<p>It feels really good to know that you had low grades and SAT scores because that’s the boat that I’m in and I feel so incredibly discouraged by it. NYU is such an amazing school, congrats! Good luck this year, I hope you love it.</p>
<p>Do not Do not Do not, transfer to NYU, you will waste your money. It is not worth it.</p>
<p>I was wondering if the choice of classes mattered? I am undecided and so I am taking many different classes to see what it is I gravitate towards so that I can choose a major for sophomore year. I am taking Math, Art History, Political Science, Psychology and Sociology. Next semester, I am taking an English class (I placed out of the English class for first semester because of my ACT score) and probably a science class as well, because pre-med could be an option for me. </p>
<p>If I get straight A’s, do the classes I take matter? I know online it says that most transferees are in liberal arts courses but that’s all it pretty much says.</p>
