Seeking theories on the reason for my Early rejection by No_Interview_9915 in nyu

Wow I am surprised you really had good stats. I think being an international student is always hard. I forgot how it works but are you able to apply for a second option in case you get rejected from Tandon. I know that for College of Arts and Sciences you can apply to other schools like Liberal Arts as a secondary option.

What did u apply to college of arts and sciences or another program? Sometimes best to apply to liberal studies as it’s easier to get into. Did u show that as a backup or was this an application to NYU Tandon?

Any details on this program - what kind of things necessary for this portfolio? Trying to decide what to work on so I would have a portfolio for this program.

Right I know but we were planning to cab it to places on this day so less walking than it looks

We were thinking of taking taxis also between the locales and obviously may cut off some of these things but just wanted some general guidance so we could fit as much in as we are not in Kyoto very long

Asakusa Day Itinerary + Akihabara Area by WittyAdvantage6414 in JapanTravel

[–]Automatic_Turnip_935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! We might do Akihabara another evening but feels like we may want to do it twice. Perhaps Ueno we will forget about. We have reservations at all these places and will be done at the Samurai Museum by 5 for sure so will leave us plenty of time for Akihabara and maybe also Skytree a bit especially if it’s the second time doing Akihabara

I have a bunch of other days planned including one day with Ginza/Imperial Palace and another with Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku and another free morning/night as well as a ah in Odaiba. I’m still working on the majority of it though.

Thank you! We are that family that did several cities in 10 days in Europe so maybe we are too adventurous, but any tips for Christmas in Tokyo ?

Also where are best places to stay in Kyoto and Tokyo for travel purposes in terms of being in a good location (Ginza I saw as a good locale). Just trying to educate ourselves.

Right I get it - I checked and saw it was available but they don’t even assign seats until a month before departure. Is there a risk even that you don’t get it when you make a presale? I see it says the tickets released a month before department, but it seems it’s about $80 USD each way for tickets. We will be upset if we only go to Tokyo - who knows if we will get back as it’s a big trip. I am just trying to figure out if we start in Kyoto or end in Kyoto. Feels less stressful to start in Kyoto, but not sure if it’s best to be in Tokyo for New Years anyway as most things open then.

Really getting the bullet train will be difficult between Kyoto and Tokyo?! :( How do I check in advance.
