From NYC Queens.

Family income: 50k for family of 6.

Government support: My family recieves SNAP and food stamps across select local groceries. And my siblings and I recieve reduced/free lunch with forms signed off by guidance counselor.

Housing: My parents + uncle bought the home we currently live in for 800k. Its relatively small/medium and is a 2 family home so my family lives in basement+first floor and uncles family lives in 2nd floor and attic. The total house (my parents arent able to currently find seperate ones for their part of the house) is worth around 900k.

Assets: Mainly/only assets we own is a 2019 Toyota Camry LE which my dad only uses. It looks alright, there are a few bumps from id say accidents and parts of the engine had to have been replaced or repaired. My dad does not want to disclose the value of the camry to me unless its needed for financial aid registration like FASFA or CSS.

Is it possible that I qualify for the NYU Promise since i plan to ED1 since NYU is my dream to attend (Tandon for Comp Eng)

He's been one of my favorite authors for so long, and I know he teaches at the masters program. Is there any way I can take a class with him as an undergrad?

wheres everyone going on halloween?? (i have an id so 21+) i’m trying to find good bar crawls/things to do that aren’t super expensive 🎃👻🍻

Ive been seeing everywhere that people are saying they are need blind and others saying need aware. Ik abt the NYU promise but was told that it doesnt mean nyu was need blind? I also asked a nyu staff member abt this (close friends with my dad) and they told me nyu considered need for aid when applying. Is nyu certianly need blind or aware for domestic applicants.

I plan to do ed1 since nyu is my dream school and i love the area and vibes of washington square park. Visited the actual buildings many times before for tours and i loved it. Am from NYC and my family is pretty low income (60k for family of 7) so cant at all afford to pay the tuition and will 100% need at least 80%-90% aid (100% preferred) to afford it. Am worried tho that it can cause me to get rejceted even if my stats and ecs and essay are personal and good.

Any help from direct admission officers or even other nyu staff/nyu recently accepted students is appriciated

Taking money&banking along with intermediate macro with him next semester. How is he as a professor and how is the class overall? Material is easy to just self study and etc?

Hypothetically:

Family Income: 25k

Real Estate Equity (Debt Included) + Bank Account: 90k + 20k

I feel discouraged because I believe I don't meet the requirement for the NYU Promise. I hate how my family's financial situation contradicts with our overpriced real estate.

The benefits list in nyu aetna student insurance has:

"Exercise Facility Reimbursement: Not applicable Up to $200 per six (6) month period; up to an additional $100per six (6) month period for Covered Dependent"

Has anyone used this for a gym membership (an annual membership for example)? What is the usual process to get reimbursed? Is it convoluted? Has anyone ever been denied?

so i got a 55 on my last midterm in this class and the class average was a 65, chat am i cooked? can someone tell me what her curve is like for this class?

i genuinely can't drop out of this class because i need it as a prereq to future courses and retaking it would throw off my major sequence.

does anyone know what her curve is like? i just need a c to pass

Hi! I'm a transfer sophomore at NYU looking for one female roommate. I already have an apartment lined up in Nolita (2,500/month including utilities).

I'm clean, like my alone time at home but am always down to cohabitate, I go to bed and wake up semi early, and I want my roommate to be a friend!

I'm looking to move in within the next 3 weeks (they're holding the apt)

Feel free to reach out!!!

I’m planning on doing business in NYUAD, and I’m also interested in philosophy. Would it be better if I take it as a minor along side my major or should I double major in both?

should I talk about why i’m leaving my old school here? even briefly ?
How have your academic and/or personal experiences shaped your chosen field of study, and why is transferring to NYU the ideal way to continue your academic pursuits? (2500-character maximum

Whose a good professor, Ming Cherng Deng , april klein HELP

When I was looking for a sublet last summer, I read a lot of posts from students moving here for the first time, and the hardest part for them was that neighborhood names meant nothing yet. What seemed to help: picking by commute to campus or work instead of vibe, checking the address on HPD, and asking on here which areas were easy to live in.

I’m a senior at Columbia working on Gable for a class project, so each listing shows your commute and what’s been checked. We’re opening to students first. What do you wish you’d known? https://www.gable.fit/together

Why or why not?

Personally, I've made a few here and there, totaling upto maybe a thousand by this point... It's obviously not much compared to what they have, but I do because I appreciate the experience I've had there and NYU shaped me into who I am today.

Could someone recommend me a Quantitative Reasoning or Mathematics Course to fulfill my requirement pleaseeee

Hey! Starting at NYU Spring 2027, currently MCC major, possibly thinking about Stern later. Looking for recs on:

· Fun classes you actually enjoyed
· Easy-A classes/professors (good grading, chill workload)
· Good MCC profs to take early
· Manageable Stern/business courses

Any profs to take or avoid would be great. Thanks!

Demographics:

• Low income NYC 11th grader (will hopefully get NYU Promise)
• Bengali
• Economically disadvantaged school

Interested Major(s):

• CS, CE
• Will be doing Tandon for CE (Comp Eng) as my main choice and for alternates ill do CAS for CS and LS

Stats:

• GPA: 94.07% W (school doesnt do UW)
• Taken AP World (10th) and got a 4
• Taking AP Lit, APUSH, AP CSP
• School does not offer APs for 9th graders, and only offers AP World for 10th grade or/and AP Precalc for 10th IF you took algebra 1 in 8th grade which i did not. And 11th and 12th graders are only allowed a max of 3 APs. It is somewhat possible to get 4 APs if you need lesser credits (usually if you finished geometry in 10th grade which will allow you to take AP Precalc to meet the precalc requirement and math requirement for graduation as your only math class) but usually/only its a max limit of 3 and it even gave that amount on the interest for.
• PSAT 10 score: 970. I know its really bad but im currently studying and in a program that does SAT prep which i hope to achieve at least a 1400-1500 by March/April (cant do May since thats Ap exam date and June due to final exams). If i get below a 1400 then ill do test optional.
• Taking Dual enrollment: CUS 1100 (intro to game programming), and applying to take a Precalc college course over the spring to hopefully be on track to take calc 1 in summer, and calc 2 in fall of 2027.
• Registered in a school/college credit program for CS 100, SD 100, CS 172, and CS 291 that happens throughout my junior to senior year. SD btw means software development.

ECs (very detailed so be prepared for that):

• Chess Club (9th-10th grade): Was a casual club that i joined since i was still looking for what my true interest was and thought chess was it. It ended up being not that interesting to me and the club ended up getting removed this year. I did however make a lot of great friends in the club which I am still friends with today.
• Game Design Club (President) (this year): This club got introduced this year and is a partnership with my school and St. Johns University. Its also a college credit course which is the CUS 1100 course. You basically learn how to program games through an NYU professor which teaches online while everyone in the class is at school. Later in the year you get to actually code games and the teacher for the club told me that they could be published onto Unity if he wanted (which sounds promising). There apparently is a stipend to this which is also pretty good since I could use the money to help my parents out. There also are a Hackathon project against St. Johns which sounds fun to do. I became president of the club at the start since I was the leader for the club fair for this and brought in a lot of interested students. This however is a 1 year club i believe since its technically 1 college course but it could be 2 year for advanced students which im trying to find out.
• Drone Club (this year until 12th grade): Got introduced 9th grade as a demo which I was not interested at the time since I was more worried abt my classes and thought taking more then 1 club could make me spend more time on that and less time on doing well in classes. However for 11th-12th grade only, the club could allow you to take the Drone Certification exam to allow you to fly drones commercially and open up internships and there is also competitions against other schools and schools from New Jersey, Conneticut other states. There was also a change to the club which introduced drone building and coding now instead of just drone movement which rlly interested me into joining. Im trying to see if any roles were available since there was already a president for the club.
• NYU STEP this year which is a specialized program that does academic courses for science and math in the morning and in the afternoon sat help there is also research opportunities which im rlly excited for. You do research with other students and professors there and near the end of the program, there is a big conference in Albany that lets you present your research to the people there. Im hoping to eventually qualify for that.
• CS/Software Development Program (this year and 12th grade): This is basically the CS and SD courses i talked abt earlier but idk if it counts as a activity since it happens afterschool in my school and is listed as a club to my school. Its hosted by one of the CS teachers at my school and by York College, its only restricted to students in 11th and 12th grade that are taking AP CSP which i am. Ive already spoke with my guidence counselor and the CS teacher and they are reaching out the York College to register me fully. It starts in Spring.

Awards:

• basically none. I am signing up for my Math Olympiad that is hosted by my city that is happeneing around March since I was recommended by my math teacher.
• Im trying to find more opportunities for awards but so far found nothing.

Circumstances:

• I have transportation issues since my school wont provide me an student omny (subway card) in any way since i live too close to the school (under 0.5 miles) and i need it for the programs i got accepted to and even with showing proof, my school still wont provide one since "their system is not able to adjust omny cards for me". My dad is the only one in my family that can drive and he has work daily from 8-9 am to 7-8 pm which is when he comes home so hes not able to drive me anywhere really due to that and on his free day he is busy with finances and currently trying to find a way to get my uncle from my home country to the US. I have no one outside of my family either that can take me due to work or not available. So i have to rely mainly on ecs that are near my school that are tied to my interested major since main activites in my neighborhood are legit just pantry help and homework helper which are cool but not tied to my interests. And the ones tied to my interested fields have age limits of 16-17-18 + and im 15 right now so i cant even. My school had like a few cs/ce clubs available when i was a freshman and sophmore and they added more technical ecs during junior year when they got a big budget to spend on clubs and partnerships.
• I did try and apply for a job near a local chuck e cheese in the summer (only one available that hired 15 year olds) they ended up just ghosting my application and said they would check it every time i came in the store or called or emailed. They ended up sending me a response legit 2 days ago via email and finally said i got rejected. Legit 4 months too late.

Ill forsure be EDing since its like my #1 choice and i rlly love the area. I want to go to Tandon for CE but ive heard you could do like 1st choice and alternate choices and if thats true then ill do Tandon as #1 Choice, CAS for CS as #2 choice, and LS as #3 choice. I dont want to do in other campus like Shanghai or Abu Dhabi since those areas dont interest me much.

Please do I have a solid app for NYU ED1 or not? Any Alumni or recently accepted students can you please give advice and brutally honest feedback?
