You get like 28 classes in HS max
I have 11 and I think I have the most in my school
Part time job and tutor that’s all
I had one of the most and I had 12
It was legit physically impossible for me to take more
15-16 just feels impossible in my head
My school has 5 😪
School scheduled AP lit and AP art same period
Aps
AP stats and physics same period

One year they scheduled fucking so calc and AP physics AP same period
16 aps wowza
it is if like
4ap fresh man year
4ap softmore year ap junior and senior year
My school has a lot of college classes though to make up for only 5 APs
Stats is apparently so easy that Tandon doesn’t even give credit for it
wait we can do that? lets go
I took 7 APs in my junior year 7 APs in my senior year
I’m crying what 4 APs are you taking freshman year
7???
bro how ive been sitting and literally staring at a wall
I did 1/1/4/6 that’s insane
i mean taking 4 ap each year freshman, soft more,junior and senior
that add up 16
undergraduate admissions have nothing to do with graduate admissions so yes you can do that
u got ivy day to pray for u good bro
My first ap I got a 1 in 9th grade 😕
my super smart clssmate got a 2 on AP stats 💔
If you try to take an AP as a freshie they take you out back and shoot you
stats is aids bro
I got a 1 dw. And I re took it the next year
Oh yeah I guess but as an underclassman its very hard to be even in an AP class
???
Also like
yea true but someschool do let u
I was telling my friend how stats was so easy that I took a nap for half an hour on the exam and still got a 5, then he told me he got a 2
Damn
plus u can take ap online nowsday
Half an hour per section
i think you're js built different 😭
Does this even like. Count
Do you get credit
it does yes
AP Credit yeah but like school
My self studied ones don’t appear on school transcript
Idk if online classes somehow integrate differently
My friend did the same but yea ig I do like stats in general
damn im looking at this letter and getting imposter syndrome
it does as long as u score well
What is imposter syndrome
Every year NYU admits one impostor. Could be you
Kidding. Congrats
You were selected for a reason
And the reason is
You’re awesome
Damn doesn’t for me
NYU admits all imposters 
i wrote my essay on valorant
rememeber
nyu is all personality hires
Imagine you got admitted to MIT and you’re like “dammmnnn im not even that good”
Peak
THATS FIREEE
nyu good and all but it cost a lot so have u check your financial aid
“Everyone at MIT is probably so much more talented than me why did I get in”
“I am afraid I will feel like a massive failure at MIT”
nyu literally cares about character trait and personality the most
“I feel bad for people who I perceive as more qualified than ke who didn’t get in”
That was me when I got into nyu
if we make the aos laugh
Lowkey me thinking that too because my friend got in and she’s super smart 😿 to nyu not mit
we get in
Then I realized that nyu was a bum
im happy that i got accepted but i absolutely cannot afford it 🥀
So it checks out
yea most people who applied dont even know if they can afford it 😭
NYU is giving me nothing they said I was ineligible
I hope my app made them laugh because #ididntdothefuckingsupplemental
#fuck
HELP
#shouldvedonethat
It was optional?
So bridges am I right. What’s the deal
LMAOAOAOA
NYU is business even if have crazy stats your gonna get in debt
What 😭 I just used my Barnard supplemental
Could I have actually gotten if I just said I was a fucking bridge or some shit
What the fuck
I want to be a nyu admission officer when I grow up so I can traumatize future generations 
They want everyone and their grandma to apply so they can decrease their acceptance rate
So they made virtually everything "optional"
did applied for quest bridge
or mlk scholarship
FOR THE BRIDGE ESSAY???
I saw a college stats video where someone got in rd to nyu cs without a stellar gpa, test optional I think, no cs related ec’s, and no optional essay
oh wait the essay was abt building bridges right
daddy donated a building
Not about bridges I think?
Daddy did nothin
Dude what
i lowkey just reused my emory essay for nyu
Wait let me see
They didn’t even end up going bc of the cost 😭
essays were higkey the worst part of the applications
yoo twinsies
but it was optional tho
mm true
Where do u think yr going
Optional but strongly recommended
i got into one other uni so far - purdue
did everyone get waitlisted this year
Engineering?
CS
Purdue cs is insane tho
yea true if are bad writer but have crazy good stats it could hinder your application
everything else was a waitlist 💔
What is bridge essay
I had a shitty bridge builder essay
My question was “Tell us about a time you encountered a perspective different from your own. What did you learn—about yourself, the other person, or the world?”
same
I wrote abt my job😭
yes but they wrote a huge yap above it talking abt how nyu wants bridge builders
I wrote how I created a queer club at my Christian school and got in school suspension for it
It was so shitty
They did? Bro I didn’t do that 😭
I’m cryinnggg
wow that's an excellent essay topic unironically
I didnt know it was optional
That’s actually a phenomenal topic
Yo oh my god
welp i got rejected there nothing eles from me do beside move on. Im gonna byes to NYU 🤧
Honestly I could’ve wrote about that instead since I worked as a camp counselor 
I’m actually abt get a poll in here
it was but you absolutely should write it
I wrote about fitting ski boots 😭😭
Lowk that goes hard tho
Bro that’s so unique did u get in
I lowkey had a really good topic I could’ve used as a bridge building thing
There’s always next year.
Nvm
Yeah that lowkey mightve done it for me
Isn’t this 2030?
There’s transfer
Parents won’t let me don’t transfer
And lowk need #myparentsmoney
Ah
where are you planning to attend
rn
Depends
If I get rejected from every school after today
Knock on wood
Uhh
Maybe stony Brook
I wonder if my last minute cum laude forward to nyu clutched me❤️
r/transfertot25
bro i still havnt gotten my stony decison im actually worriednow
what are your acceptances so far
ooh
i applied like on the last day i had common app fee waiver
What major??
WTFFF ISNANENENENE
The moment I told my mom it’s in Pittsburgh
She looked at me
And said
If I die tomorrow
You’re not allowed to go to CMU
Nah cmu’s a safety
Fuck pittsburgh
you didn’t do the essay?
There were a couple ppl here earlier that got into cmu
NO 😭😭😭😭😭
Yeah me I think
i heard pittsburgh is a gloomy place where it rains a lot
It is
Did you get nyu promise?
Too unsafe they said
Lol thats bs though
hmm interestng
Unironically they said the same thing about NYU
so even if I got accepted here
#whocares
Oakland is safe as shit😭
Oh you’re still full pay?
I have 5k in scholarships
Yeah but 0 aid 💀
Isn’t that in cali 😭
Greedy ass school
WHAT
Nah oakland is right to the right of pittsburgh that has like Pitt and CMU
picking a college is such a weird decision cuz every place kinda sucks (when you ask the current students)
Oh ok
I m screenshotting this to my berk friend
Idk they gen do not trust me in any city
Legit my parents were considering asking me to rescind Yale
Cuz they didn’t like New Haven
Theres nothing unsafe abt it lol theres a giant ass private school right next to it and gentrified as hell neighborhoods
Idfk man
CMU is a great school though congrats
If it comes down to it I might have to beg them to reconsider
Thank yuo
well i would rlly rlly consider it if I got into cmu compE
Definitely a little gloomy but its bice
I’m trying to tell them
welcome new admits!
And they like nyc?
did you get fin aid?
Financial aid was better then stony too
Actually no
Yeah if i got into cmu for comp e i would’ve committed right away sigh
They only let me do tandon bc they like Brooklyn
Not Manhattan
Almost made me rescind Columbia too
Brooklyn but not Manhattan is wild lowk 😭
wait so you got into cmu WITH fin aid
thats set innit
Thats bs
that makes no sense
Cmu ur literally set bro
Wait you got into cmu?
its lit the top 1-2 ranked uni for compE andCS
Bro why are you even here 
the only problem i saw with it was the insane cost
And you got FINAID
Depending on what u wanna do you could pay it off urself
Cmu leagues ahead of nyu for eng
EXACTLYY
Thats a life of prestige dawg
You’re basically set up for the next 4 years
Sit back and relax bruh 😭
Like if you have to pay it yourself then you can prolly make it back decently quickly
At least much quicker than the average person
Especially w fin aid
Theres definitely parts of pittsburgh that are considered unsafe by like the media (hill district/ southside) but in oakland you are so far removed from all that geographically its so minimal
Youre closest to like squirrel hill and stuff which is nice asf
I GOT INTO NYU
MANN I LEGIT HAVE TECIVED NOTHING BUT REJECTIONS been waiting for ts
i love you guys
congraatsss what major
MY PARWNTS WONT LET KE GO TO PITTSBURGH
😭. 😭😭😭😭😭. 😭😭
The campus sounds so nice I’m literally cryaing
We are NYU, we carry the flame 🗽… we are NYU, the city our own, together unbroken, we’ll make campus home
YAAYY CONVRATS!!!
You really should. Its one of the rust belt cities thats actually rebounding
Waow
what schools do they even like then 😭
WELCOME TO STEINHARDT
Cornell
boston but not pitt 😭
GPH TWINNNN
yeah this is me
Boston is legit the one city they like
are you not going to nyu bc of the cost?
3.8 pretty good tho
I had a 96.98 gpa test optional + my Barnard supplement reused
yeah same i reused a different sup for nyu
And Barnard waitlisted me too 😭😭
called it twin i single-handedly got u in
i reused princeton essay
Tuff
Lowkenuinely considering NYU after being accepted
I’m for spring 2027 but I could enroll at community college for credits before I start
😼
so what
oh hey i was a spring start lmk if u have any questions i also took cc classes
Idk
you got accepted right?
senioritis
For spring 2027
just checked got waitlisted so ill take that
whats that
that being said is there a good chance of being taken off the waitlist?
did everyone get waitlisted this year
no
It’s a 2 year interdisciplinary program and once it is done you get transferred into cas
38 rejected so far
wait why did no one get in for abu dhabi 😭
apparently most year 100s of students get off waitlist
so if they rank waitlist then yea otherwise probably not
idk
bro i got in for some accelerated spring thing
idk what it is
wait
Liberal studies core?
spring admit in london or smth?
did u get into ls
oh spring admit in tandon
Yes
spring admin ls nyc
you enter nyu in the spring not fall
It seems really cool I might consider going
it says they got into tandon tho?
but why does it say mandatory courses taken in summer
would it be online or in person?
u def should consider!! i loved my semester off i made so much money and saved up a ton
got out of my 2 required science core classes through cc
idk check that spring admissions website link for details
oh yea i should've done that
I think I’m gonna take non-degree classes at community college and rack up credits because I only have 6
Before I start
for spring start they cap u at 8 credits
6 is still better than 0
Ah
i guess they didn't update the page
wait fr?
Then I guess I can take 1 class 😼
yep that’s 2 community college classes
i took earth science and human bio to get out of my 2 core science classes
I once took a community college class and I got 3 credits from it
does ap credits count?
but i also had 4 aps worth of credit so im getting out of 6 classes total so i can graduate in 7 semesters!!
Probably only 4-5 I think for ap
oh it doesnt count in that nvm
yes yes steinhardt is actually super lenient for aps
3’s are state schools only usually
yea
i can send u the document that has all the steinhardt ap credits too
its 4 for most of the AP's at nyu
which aps steinhardt accepts
I can also send the tandon ap credits
wait @hushed bay are you in tandon? it doesn't say if i have to take the summer classes in person or online. are these classes only in person?
Rejected ucla but accepted nyu though 😏
yea im in tandon
same
do you know if those classes are in person
UCLA doesn’t know they missed out on me
the summer ones
i think they’re ls to cas so lowk steinhardt shit doesn’t matter i’m slow
i was a fall admit so idk how the spring ones work
oh that's nice
im guessing you're ece?
do you think there are a lot of opportunites
yea
nyu isn't ranked very high for internships and co ops on usnews
for ece specically you should have double the amount of opportunities as usual
since it covers both ee and ce
Rankings aren’t everything though, it’s what you make of it
there's a bunch of networking nights and guest speakers
yea that's true what about the cost though do you think it's worth 96k
nyu's also pretty good for research if you utilize it well
i can get both ee and computer engineering degrees at my local state school for more than a third of the price
so i don't know if it's worth it cost wise
RD
i think one person did
stern is brutal rd
and it's only getting worse each year
nyu in general is brutal rd
cas aint terrible
its much better in ed1 and ed2
I got in rd but I feel like if I applied this cycle I wouldn't be here
is it too late to submit css 😭
that's true
chat how weird is it that in my nyu financial aid statement it has the wrong year
did anyone get tisch
I got in tisch
Thanks!
I mean not for rd
Film and television
ooo sick
nice!
aight ya thats what i thought
Omg bro i also got waitlist at CMU
I saw the numbers
and I was liek
TF
What’s the tandon oos acceptance rate
Soft rejection
Tryna convince myself that this is indicative of Ivy acceptances tmrw 💀
tbh i didnt really care
tandon is ass anyways
wasn't really planning to go regardless
do ppl get off the wl at stern
True
hi
Hi
what did you apply for
at cmu
EE
or ece
wtv they call it
eece
i dont fucking remember
source?
they dont even publish waitlist rates
yer
dang maybe i should've applied cmu
but if i had gotten in i would have switched to math at cas
at nyu?
cuz tandon skully
ye
yea
dang i got into tandon but i much rather go to cmu
is it harder to get into tandon cs or cas cs
i should've applied then lowkey
i mean its gambling
my 1 friend got into princeton
yea that's true
i got rejected duke ed but somehow got nyu
ohh
i would've been fine with a waitlist
do they rank waitlist
they have like 30 kids that got off the wl last year
btw
and they had more wl's then rej's last year
nah but like
yea it's 20k cheaper
i think i would have gotten in if i was full pay
should i do cmu or ucla
yea maybe
cuz i have the nystate under 100k thing where i dont pay tuition
imma blame that frfr
my sai was 120k so i thought there was no point in doing financial aid anymore
https://www.ivycoach.com/the-ivy-coach-blog/college-admissions/nyu-waitlist-acceptance-rate/
Ts the best we have and it's from a decade ago but im pretty sure one of those ivy league guide bros on tiktok talked abt it u can search it up on there
i didn't get aid from a single school ea
for what major
im at -1500 
so like ya
dang what
only applied nyu cuz of the <100k thingy
oh yea that makes sense
for free tuition
math/econ
did you get decent aid anywhere
w plans to do quant or break into finance possibly
are you in state for anything
oh so which school is cheaper
twinnnnnnnnnn
ucla i think
rpi sleeper build ahh college frfr
what if i don’t care about cost
I would say CMU is prolly better for STEM but it depends on like aid and stuff
even then ucla economics is higher ranked
yeah that’s what i think too also tepper is good
if you want to be a quant i would say ucla
if you want to do math/stem then maybe cmu
How am I supposed to do my homework after getting into NYU 😫
Congrats!!!!
they have this program where u can take classes at tepper and basically be a quant
fade.. also congrats!!!!
Gotta maintain gpa 😪
isn't it hard to get into though
yeah exactly
Need salutatorian spot
i wrote about it on my supplements
are you sure you want to be a quant
it's also easier to transfer if you do ucla econ i would think
I got 3 😭😭
to a better school for quants
I end June 26
BRO 😭😭 MINE IS 6/25
no
They are genuinely dragging it ong
mines may 28
pal idk what to tell u just keep it pushing twin
then i would say it doesn't really make a difference what you pick
Am so burnt out twin
i got in for math/econ but apparently the econ part is like 6 classes
But I can’t stop
Me too brother as soon as I got into my first school i was locked out
i mean id do research on the campuses (or nyu's lack of said campus)
I have a 0 percent in gov rn
ucla econ and math are ranked really high though still
true true
I was burnt out since second semester junior year 😫 I’m cooked
but if you still want to explore majors and are considering stem cmu might be better
got a 23 rn 💔
thanks guys
but just gotta turn hw in fr
Real after standarized testing
its so free
but it won't make that much of a difference
my teacher makes it so bad
honestly search up the average job salaries for each major at each school
lollll
My gov teacher tells us to use ai
vro good luck w that
check rpi's 👀 sleeper pick fr
the average in my class is like 60s
and she does this secret curve
and no one knows how much it is so they just pray
which physics u doing?
both but now we’re on e&m
retail price?
ye
and he was bullshitting for the psat 5 months
and now we doing a unit every 2 weeks 😭
i mean e&m is free for me personally
u got into rpi?
holy how
just gotta make sure i lock in for e&m
it’s so confusing
im ee major bro 😭 i studied
were u at states?
wait what
my team qualified but i didn’t get to go
u needed like two medals to go
i only had one
😢
bro i just told my mom about how i got into nyush and she started putting on vids of ni hao kai-lan 😭😭😭😭 which i used to watch in preschool...
waiting for this school....
Is there anyone from Vietnam?
how much movement does nyu waitlist have
my mom didn't know what nyu was 😭
It’s at nyu but has a lot of study abroad I think
is it easier to get into
i have a friend who applied (?
i haven’t seen anyone here from vietnam though
wait no @fading mural you’re viet right
Yh
A ton of Viet in this server
BitPham, Professional Purdue Simp & Beatice and theres a whole bunch more i dont remember
is there an acceptance package
bro wtf why
pitt is so nice
lowk one of my favorite cities
of those I have visited
its not too big but also not too small, its like the perfect size to where you can actually form a communit while still having new things around you
dms
Acceptance
But like
I'm to broke
So can I donate
My acceptance
I don't wanna pay
67k

95k here
tsk tsk tsk
dont you know
the city IS the campus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Columbia mogs
Yeah same
I'm gonna be
At a poker night
mb vro

Should be funny
will Columbia accept me??
if nyu don’t want me??
Like I abused the research section
its possible
cobobmbiba is need blind
and has different institutional priorities
ye I was full lazy on Columbia app
I had research
a lot of ppl i feel arnt accepting nyu yield rate droping this yr
But didn’t fill the abstract thingy out
fr
manifesting a yield rate of 0
I just copy and pasted the abstract off pubmed
Lol
everyone on the waitlist gets. in !
I was not gonna rewrite that shit
nah I didn’t
I submitted the app on vacation
I’d be angry if they did let that ass application through
Like the editors made it perfect so like why rewrite it when I can use a published abstract 😭
I wrote the supplements
no one go there
manifesting this energy
I'm expecting a rejection
idk tandons looking like one of my better options rn
nah fax
either tandon nyit rit liu
Nyit
im cooked or cunys but my dad is not letting me go a cuny icl
i hear conflicting thinga bout nyit
Keeps emailing me
omg same
hes gonna kill me if i go ccny
icl
he prefers a priv over cuny
wanted to apply ccny as well but parents were like. naur
they made sure evb in my school applied to cunys
regardless if they go or not
yea cuny safteys
lapis you got into nyu?
hi any tetrio players please dm me we have a team
waitlisted
Avg nyu experience
did they send you more emails?
lemme look

naur
uhh
ur ecs are bad?
academics were really good for my school
ECs were really good but like
compared to other t20/t50 applicants
they were like
pretty good
your school do ranks?
like. i have rlly good stuff but nothing that is like. oh im the number 1 in the nation for xyz or i ran this suepr duper successful business
how many total ppl were waitlisted this cyle u think
no
uuu
7000
wdym new email
im estimating
but it could be higher
since their rate is like 9 or smt
some college send emails about, meet the admitted students and ect
ohh
for me i didn't even get the email that everyone got that said when decisions would release
idk why
I saw we have to take a math placement test? Do remember how hard it was
i'd already taken calc bc so i never took it, sorry
same
I also got spring start. was it hard getting acclimated? and how was the credit transfer process?
to ppl who were waitlsited did ygs submit sat/act? if yes what did ygs submit
my friend was deferred to RD from ED1 and got accepted
Accepted tandon. Went Test optional
38% of accepted applicants submitted test scores
Heyy congrats to them!
Yeah thought it is too lower to risk with a mid score
WTF how are so many people going test optional
My gpa is good tho
this is a travesty
Standardized tests doesnt show the full picture. But if someone thinks that's a good way to showcase their preparedness, sure they should go with
the higher that the test score goes up the more people are going to go test optional, and its just gonna keep going up until the average sat is 1580 with 10% submitting test scores or they will just go test required
The enrolled student body is far lower than the score's range
I believe it was 1330-1490 i guess??
yeah i bet the average is a low 1400 or high 13
i know mccombs used to have an average sat of 1470, went test required and it dropped to 1390
i think they should just go test-needed and still admit students with low score if they're a good fit
poor students can get waivers anyways
Oh boy i almost made an entire statistics classes just to decide when to send my scores
neither does gpa and gpa is required lol. if anything it should be gpa optional and test required
I think it wouldnt work that way
that's how every school did it for decades before 2020
Actually i think gpa does. It show what you did with what was on your hands
so you want a 2 hour test to substitute 4 years of work? 😭
it predicts academic success much better 
Btw school profiles show the grade distribution, so it's easy to know how grade inflated some school are
News from the outer world: people who are good in tests, usually do good in tests
The job of a AO is not to take the best students ever
It's simply to take those who will thrive in the uni
Regardless of what a 2 hour exam said.
this doesn't fix the problem due to ceiling effect (if a school gives out many 3.9-4.0s, which nyu also accepts many of)
that's why i don't think sat should be the only factor
And it is not, but for inference, it means it might not represent the whole picture and thus doesn't need to be shown
Intls are subject to way harder tests
Its not fair to review someone preparedness based on a logic exam of a test that only have HS freshmen math and english
NYU btw accepted my country's exam
And whoaa mate i shined there
no factor in the admissions process factors in the whole picture... what do you even mean when you say this? the truth is that sat predicts academic success (i.e. thriving at a university better)
What you think is the goal of SAT?
to assess a student's ability/mastery of high-school level english and mathematics ... both of which are requirements for doing well in university
Good. Does it do that?
yes
if you can't solve a quadratic equation after 4 years of high school, you probably aren't so good at what you were supposed to learn in hs
Sooo you think someone's success is based on how well they do on a 2 hour exam that covers basic math but with excruciating time restraints?
if you're unable to tell the main idea of a short passage, you will probably struggle with reading in college
Your definition of ability is speed u mean?
at nyu we are all personality hires.
yeah
Good luck so!
we can agree to disagree atp
Im sorty for this thought
But anw you will realize this stupidty once you get out of this bubble
i mean the evidence is in my favor
did your school offer?
that's incredible mate. I've heard nursing is extremely comp
and that's emory 🥳
NYU’s a bum school anyways
no ur not delusional!
Yes!! Thank you
is heop easier or harder to get into then regular
WHO READY FOR IVY DAY TODAY
WE ARE ALL GETTING IN
ALL THE PPL WHO APPLIED RD TO ICIES WILL GET YEILD PROTECTED EXCEPT FOR US
ur cooked bro
dont dampen the mood
uiuc info sci + data sci or nyu data sci
is nyc like a bum city to live in or are people just exaggerating
asking bc i got into nyu with a good aid offer, but my main worry is that i'd hate living in nyc since it's so different from where i live (its much smaller and life is very slow here)
i got waitlisted stern and submited a 1550 (790 math)
not surprised tbh considered stern's acceptance % is lower than most ivies rd
no its nice
expensive
hella
but its not bad
oh shit I thought this was general
mb
I was confused why everyone was talking about hnyu
Is there a disc server for accepted students
yes
there should be NYU 2030 in ur portal
u can join through that link
make sure u do form to verify
Nah you were yield protected
uiuc
is it nyc campus only
i don’t have one in my portal
maybe???
huh
they have channels for global gateway and spring start tho
wait where is it specifically in the portal
is it in the welcome section or
No wait
i have instagram and facebook
huh
yeah'
😭😭
these videos make it look like theyll get killed if they dont get in good goddd
Oh thats you emily
LMFAOOO I SAW THIS
Can you place higher
Or is calc 2 the limit
i have genuinely no clue, sorry
Ah all good
Might be school dependent anyway
I’m like 90% sure I did tandon math but for all I know it might have been cas
💀
well my friend is a freshman and he placed calc III so i guess its possible!
Stern anyone
aahl lol
who has nyu shanghai
I thought the placement test was only to determine whether you get placed into precalc or calc 1
at least for tandon
Idk brah my friend is CAS pre med (bio)
did anyone get into the 3+2 compsci/compE program
NYU KIDS
this is importat
when are the "meet us on the square" days
not the weekend one
the one-day mini-sessions
i'm trying to coordinate w/ a friend who got into nyu so we're both in new york the same days'
uhhh
shouldnt it be in ur events tab lol
iirc there should be april 24th
a dual degree program (got rejected tho 💔 )
damn
rare cs related dual degree mentioned
yo is it comp
or nah i might mention it in my loci
lwky
👀
Are there any nyu students that took the math placement exam
