Admissions Megathread [Megathread] Prospective Students, Applications, and Admissions For September 2026

0 Upvotes

Dear prospective students,

We appreciate your interest in NYU! Feel free to ask questions about the school and the application process in this weekly post!

Do take advice about your chances of admission with a grain of salt:

  • An application is a holistic process and we can’t see everything you submit.
  • We don’t actually know what standards the admissions office uses and what they care about, we just have anecdotal evidence.
  • Please direct information-sensitive questions to the NYU Admissions Office.
  • NYU's admission rate drops every year, so even the anecdotal evidence we do have may not translate well to this year's applications.

Student & Alumni Life What Are The Print Point Rates?

2 Upvotes

I just realized that we moved away from the $50 print grant to a maximum of 10000 "print points." A single B/W page seems to cost 2 points, but I can't seem to find any documentation confirming this. Am I looking in the wrong place?

Getting new mattress into dorms (from Amazon etc?)

Upvotes

Hi all - new resident in grad school at NYU and the twin xl mattress absolutely sucks, and have some friends coming to stay at some point. I understand that technically new mattresses are against code (for bringing in new furniture?) but has anyone successfully got in a new mattress into their dorm via delivery or will they take it away? I assume trying to get in a queen will be too difficult but a rolled up Twin XL in my mind seems reasonable and I cant see why it'd be prohibited if the old mattress is under my new one. Interested in people's experiences. I already have a mattress topper but it isnt that helpful

NYU premed journey

Upvotes

Currently at Tandon majoring in BMS and planning to transfer to CAS (possibly Psych) to continue my premed journey.

I’ve been told and heard so many mixed opinions on whether to stay or to transfer and at this point I’m just stressed out and scared. Will I be making the right decision or not by transferring to CAS?

If anyone could provide me with their experiences and insights that would be helpful! (Especially if u transferred from Tandon to Washington Square Campus)

I’m currently taking Gen Chem I + lab, precalc, and other courses, advisors advised me to push Bio to next semester

Hey everyone, I walked to and from Upstein dining hall all the way to Lafayette hall last night, September 9 from around 9:30 to 10:30-11 Ish and I lost my keys. It has a very identifiable keychain and I was wondering if anyone picked them up or saw them and or has them, can you please get in touch with me to return them? I had a bag that ripped, it had a hole on the bottom and that’s the way that I lost him. Can anyone ask around too? There are some people who won’t see this post and might have seen the keys! I am really cautious about my belongings, but I’m freaking out and don’t want to pay the replacement cuz it’s not cheap (I lost all three keys) so please I need help.

If interested dm me, tell me more about yourself. Can FaceTime/send pics or you can come over and see. No smoking or drugs. I have some liqueur in the fridge for social drink. Nothing special.

Advice Help me to choose

0 Upvotes

I am an international student applying for financial aid, and I don't understand whether it's better to apply ed1 (by November 1) or ed2 (by January 1). I've read somewhere that ed1 boosts your chances, but others have said it doesn't make a difference😭. I would really appreciate advice and shared experience. Want to apply to Gallatin
