might be a dumb question but what does CR mean?
It means continual review, which is the name NYU uses for a hold! As others have mentioned, NYU can basically keep applicants on “continual review” until they go through the whole interview cycle (which for them ends in January), and then they start admitting or rejecting applicants from that list. It is possible to get a straight acceptance rather than a hold, but unlike a waitlist, it turns out that 50% of the NYU class comes from a hold and they continue to admit students from the hold all the way up until April (or so I heard from people who applied last year!)
