Canada receives express mailing from NYU. UPS or Fed Ex... United States' applicants get standard delivery. So you will have to wait a little longer. In NC, it took 4 days. NY residents got the mail on the 2nd I believe

hey! yes i remember you, umm i haven't decided im completely unsure (leaning towards nyu though), what about you?

hey! yes i remember you, umm i haven't decided im completely unsure (leaning towards nyu though), what about you?

I made the mistake of having my stuff mailed to my parents in New York because I thought it would be faster. I guess having it sent to Montreal would have let me know by now. So at this point I don't know if I got into NYU yet, just that pesky we sent your decision by mail e-mail. So right now its BU, but I'll dwell on it further if I get accepted to NYU. Congrats though man! Representing the Canadian schools!

Did you receive the standard "your final decision has been sent in the mail" email? I'm still freaking out wondering if it is good news or bad... Congrats to you though!!!

I feel like they go through it pretty fast due to a lot of people choosing other schools because of the price of living in new york. anyone correct me if I'm wrong!

Finalllllllllllllllllly accepted!

Today by far is one of the best days of my life.
After college, post-bac and then masters to make my dream come true.

Yes, it really feels awesome to be at this stage ^^

If anyone does not get accepted this cycle DON'T EVER get discouraged. But rather, try harder to improve your application and get ready next year to go get what you are striving for.

Congrats to who got accepted and good luck to who's waiting for decisions!!

BTW NYU IS MY TOP CHOICE!
Time to celebrate!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I got stressed out so much last few days. It was disastrous.. I really thought I didn't make it. (along with my two other rejections). But it all paid off at the end!

Please don't lose your hope!
Your acceptance letter is on its wayyyyy

I had to call my house from work to see if he finally got to my house and...nothing. So today when it came I almost started crying haha. I live in California and interviewed way back in October. This is my second time applying and I only had one interview last year. I leave tomorrow for my UPENN interview. I'm so excited to know that I'll finally be started on my career as a dentist. Congrats to everyone else and hang in there those who are still waiting :thumbup:

I'm not sure what a URM is, so I'm guessing I'm not one lol. I'm not really sure how their scholarships work, I just got the letter in my acceptance packet. It said it was based off of my academic performance, and as long as I maintain a 3.2 GPA while in school I will get it all four years.

I interviewed on Friday, and Dr. Mejia said that they would make decisions on 12/13-17 interviewees on Friday, but letters would not be sent out until Wednesday. Hope this helps!

Are you sure? I had my interview on the 13th and she told us that she will personally mail the letters out today (12/20) for those who interviewed on 13th-17th and that we should expect the letters before Christmas around this wednesday and thursday at the latest.

Maybe for interviews earlier in the week letters will be mailed out today, but I am absolutely sure that letters for interviewees on the 17th will be mailed out on Wednesday. She specifically said so in the Q&A.

Hmmm... I see I see. Maybe they got pushed back. So if she does mail out the letters on Wednesday, we will probably not get the letters by Christmas huh? Man, I was hoping for a Christmas gift from NYU. How many interviewees were at your interview?

I interviewed on 14th and Dr. Mejia also told us the letters will be mailed early next week (20th) and we will get them by end of the week..

quick question- what about those ppl who don't receive any package?
does that mean it's a rejection?

I thought everyone who interviewed either receives a letter (waitlist) or a package (acceptance). I don't think anyone who interviewed gets rejected this early but rather placed on waitlist.

No. From reading previous threads, it seems that they will gladly resend the mail if it was lost but they will not let you know your status over the phone. It won't hurt to give it a try though.

I got the decision via snail mail! We were told at the interview on Friday (Jan 28) that letters would be mailed out the following Monday (Jan 31), and I received it this morning (Feb 2). I live in NJ so that could be why I got mine quickly. Also, for international students Dr. Mejia was saying they ship it using overnight mail so hopefully that means international applicants will hear back reasonably quick as well.

Interviewed on the 2/4/2011 Accepted on Valentines day! (2/14). I got a letter in the mail, and I'm from Cali so they probably accepted me much earlier. just mailed my deposit today

for those that wonder, you can get in to NYU with below a 3.0.

I graduated with a 2.67 (BS bio), then got a 3.7, 3.6, 3.7, and 3.9 in each post bac semester (all science classes)... bringing me to a 2.9 overall, science ~ the same. Also I came in to college as a Bioengineer, and did really bad in some ENGR classes which dropped my GPA a ton.

DAT: 19 Overall (15QR! but everything else was 18 or up), 20 Science (23 Ochem), and 21 PA. I'm a pretty good talker, and had a great interview... so that helped.

So you can get in, but you have to work your butt off. I recommend just doing well in your undergrad.

This is my Second time applying, so don't give up if you didn't make it.

Stop SDN BS!!! the truth will set you free.

I sent my app out in sept and got my invite in early jan if anyone is curious.

If according to some people who mention that NYU send express overnight mail to international locations, should I call them to check what is up?

Hey, has anybody heard anything on the summer research program? I applied way back in the first week of January but all I received was an email of my application sent back to me. It seems like a great deal so I hope I get in.

I emailed the research associate professor, Dr. J. Guttenplan, and he said: "Info of decisions should be sent out in early March."

We should be getting those updates in or within the next few weeks :xf:

To Canadian Students who are accepted to NYU:

Is the only source of the finance the banks ( Royal, TD, Scotia) or there are National or provincial loans available as well ?

All you can get is the max line of credit from the bank, then the government portion of OSAP (not the Ontario portion). It isn't too much but may cover like half of living costs - I'm not exactly sure how crazy expensive NYC is.

Quick Question about the $3500 deposit that is due by April 1st :

Should this money be at NYU by April 1st or should it be post marked by April 1st ?

The reason I am asking is that I am waiting for my number 1 school to give me an answer by the end of the month and really do not want to pay another 3500 if I don't have to.

thought i would update those who are still waiting. one of my friends interviewed there today and she said that the class is pretty full but they definitely expect people to drop after the april 1 deadline. they are interviewing up until end of march. (im not sure about after that)

and for those that interviewed today, they were told to expect to hear back 2-3 weeks.

they are away next week on vacation, and the week after the adcom will meet and make a decision.

im not sure where that puts those who are on the waitlist, but maybe they will start finding out once the decisions for the interviewees have been made.

good luck everyone :thumbup:

How much is a studio apartment in that region ? Also, How much a walk is NYU from the Subway ? How much is a subway monthly pass there ? How much difference in price can one accept if moving away 20-30 minutes Subway ride from the School ?

I think studio apartments are about $2200-$2500/month. About 20-25 mins of walk from Subway to school.

Don't be silly prsndwg. 20minutes?! Unless you walk like a grandma haha:)

The walk from the subway to NYU dental is approximately 5-10minutes depending on if your walking from the 4/5/6 subway line or the N/R line (which are only a block apart). There is also a bus on the block of the subway that will take you to NYU dental in less than 5 minutes if you catch it.

A studio apartment around the region in some good places to search such as Peter Cooper Village or Stuy Town (Big apartment complex buildings) are about 2,500+ a studio.

A subway monthly pass is 104$. (unlimited rides for 30days).

If you are willing to move 20minutes away in places such as chinatown or downtown brooklyn rent can vary tremendously. A shared 3 bedroom apartment in good condition for example (900sq ft) could run you about 1800+ in china town...maybe a little less if you can find some rundown places. The commute from china town would probably be a 2-3minute walk to subway from home+ 8-15minute train ride during rush hour +5-10minute walk to NYU dental = about 20-25minutes.

You would ideally (when looking for apartments not in NYU's neighborhood) want to look for housing near a 4/5/6 or N/R subway line because those are the trains that go closest to NYU at 23st (4/5/6 is slightly closer to NYU than N/R) *Note that only the 6 and the R travel to 23st, if you take the 4/5/N which are express you must transfer at 14st Union Sq but the transfer is quick because the 6 train always comes* 4/5/N are express lines generally.

If you are willing to venture to downtown brooklyn (nice area nowadays) in a neighborhood such a Boereum Hill near Atlantic Avenue Terminal (which has the 4/5 line (You can transfer to the 6 train at 14st as mentioned) and N/R line and very easy access to Manhattan) you can find studios for about 1,600. However your commute will probably be extended 10more minutes to about a 30minute commute.

Hope this helped. If you need anymore help you can PM me if you like.

Pretty good breakdown... I'd say the walk from the subway is a lot closer to 10-15 minutes though...

I have a friend who has a studio in a walk up that is about a 10-15 minute walk to school and pays $1650 a month. If you look at smaller buildings, it's possible to find cheap studios (albeit not easy... just possible).

A lot of people live in either Kips Bay, Waterside, Peter Cooper or Stuy Town. In all of those places, if you're willing to share your apt, you can get your own room for $1500 or less. I share a 4br with 3 people, about a 5 minute walk to school, and we each pay less than $1200 a month. I just found my roommates through the facebook group, as did some of my other classmates.

Anyway, it was mailed out on Friday....so do packages take longer to deliver than letters? I'm just getting a little nervous now........I don't want to call them again and bother them. Anyone know how long it usually takes?

(For those of you asking for apartments, it's not that hard living in Brooklyn or Queens and traveling by train.

If you have any specific questions about various areas in NYC, please feel free to ask.) :)

the NYU login has syllabi for previous years so thank you very much anyways :)

I am just wondering if buying books were necessary at all. If they were, I would just buy them early and study a little bit. Seeing how they are not directly purchased by the student, I think I will just spend the summer relaxing :cool:
