Hi Everyone! This may seem like a very broad topic, but I was wondering if someone could provide insight on NYU's procedure for selecting applicants off their wait list. I was wait listed in December and haven't heard from them since. Thank you for your help.
 
oh right.... "application cycle".. my bad.

Call the director of admissions and express your sincere desire to attend the school. During my interview she said couple of the ones that did that ended up getting an offer. They know they're not the first choice for many students. Having someone tell them that you really want to attend may give you the slight favor you need to get an acceptance.
 
Can we also turn this into an NYU waitlist support thread?

Based on past NYU waitlists threads, it seems that movement starts in the first week of April and then goes all the way until August. I interviewed in late February and was waitlisted about two weeks ago. This whole waiting game is so nauseating :nailbiting:

How many other people are waiting to hear back?

Yes, please. Would love to have a support thread while we wait this out. I feel like my life is a huge question mark right now without a definite answer :/

Has anyone heard back yet? I e-mailed them and they said that the waitlist does start moving in April but they can't give out any other information than that.
 
I'm wondering about the same thing because the lack of information and interest about this matter is starting to become very problematic for enthusiastic students in this current cycle who are trying to gather any bits of information to assess where do they stand and course their plan of action to bring out the optimal outcome for the situation they are in regarding the status of their progress pursuing their aspiration of achieving the ultimate goal of becoming a denist in which one of the crucial step is getting into this prestigious program in this current cycle.

I can't tell what is worse, you necroing this thread or your run on sentence.

Yeesh, if this is how you wrote your personal statement or talk in interview, no wonder you got waitlisted eh?

Bruh... I gave you advice in TWO DIFFERENT conversations that YOU INITIATED. The same advice that I gave you, WORKED for another SDNer. Sounds like you ARE STILL LOOKING FOR MORE VALIDATION. Do you need to look for MORE THREADS?
 
Now that's just savage.
Savage, yes. Also completely uncalled for. Cyclohex was just asking a question, @ZaneKaiser was just downright mean and vicious for no reason. And good for cyclohex for not letting himself get baited into a flame war.
Application cycles are stressful enough as it is, the last thing anyone needs is some bozo publicly embarrassing them about it.
@cyclohexane101 email the school and ask them, it would be your best bet. Hopefully they can provide you with the most accurate update. Best of luck to you!
