I’ve always wanted to go to NYU, but I feel like my grades are a little too mediocre. What test scores, examples of ECs, etc. would I need to still have a good shot? I feel like my extracurriculars are in a pretty good spot rn bc I want to be a journalism major and I’ve had a lot of articles published and I do a lot of stuff idk- opinions?
The NYU Common Data set is below (can be found with a quick google search) – look at section C to get a sense of what academics are needed to get into the college as well as the relieve importance of different aspects of the application. You will see that academics are viewed as being more important than ECs. http://www.nyu.edu/content/dam/nyu/institutionalResearch/documents/CDS_2015-2016%20FINAL.pdf
