   So far NYU is great! If it helps, my essay was actually about 700 words, but I was able to manipulate it to fit perfectly on the one page of the application supplement. Definitely focus on your essay and obtaining a great recommendation. My underg...

    BayArea510 - I used to do the commute for several years when I worked full-time in NYC. My roundtrip commute back then door-to-door was 5 hours. Needless-to-say, once I realized how much time I was spending on the train, I quit my job! I'm not wor...

    Hopeful applicant- I applied on 9/30 and was in the priority pool. Despite that, my Albert page said I was "regular Decision" so I called them about that. They told me the system doesn't have a "priority" tag to put in Albert system. The "regular"...

    RhodyRed replied to coffeescrambledeggs's topic in New York

    hopefulapplicant - yes, the guy mentioned it is "difficult" because we are placed in the same pool of applicants that have completed all their pre-reqs already. Not that I'd expect to be in a separate pool, but I was hoping they would view my other ...
