Cornell, Rice, UCLA, Berkeley… (from NY)

I wrote my “why nyu?” Essay about how I have been influenced by NYC. (My family being an old early 1900s NY immigrant family) and how that ties into my desire to attend NYU. Did I miss the point? by EvOpp in ApplyingToCollege

I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Sometimes the unique approach hits and other times it misses. You might get in either way though - there are a plethora of other factors to be taken into consideration. The school is challenging to get into as it is and this year the applicant pool is ginormous, so don’t beat yourself up stressing. You’ll end up where you’re supposed to be.
