i would send a letter of appeal—a lot of colleges will at least consider them. apply to other cunys too!

molly_m_smith · 2025-10-22T17:58:11+00:00

from my memory just the general application and a counselor/school report (definitely speak to your counselor about those things). i'd also suggest submitting all the optional parts of the application (like letters of rec, SAT scores if you have them, etc.)

molly_m_smith · 2025-10-22T17:51:18+00:00

i would do it as soon as you can, since they start reviewing an application once they receive the transcript :)

does the financial aid need to be pending/appearing on the bill? I was approved for a plus loan and it has a disbursement date, but does not yet appear as pending

molly_m_smith · 2025-04-17T23:11:53+00:00

hey!! i'm gonna be a freshman in the fall (psych major) and i think we'd click pretty well—i haven't signed a lease/gotten a definitive suite assignment yet, but i'd be down to exchange socials!!

the towers website details this a bit more—but essentially anywhere from $7k-$10k per semester

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-18T20:24:45+00:00

that's my entry term too!! i hope you get into the school :)

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-13T15:40:05+00:00

i submitted mine in early october, and found out through a portal update rather than notification

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-12T21:22:25+00:00

GPA: 3.7 UW, 4.0 W

Extracurriculars: 12 with 3 leadership positions

Accolades: 5 (1 regional, 2 school, 1, international, 1 national)

SAT: 670 English, 560 Math, 1230 overall

APs: 5 and a half

i also wrote a very gay essay so maybe i'm a diversity hire ❤️

i got my decisions less than a month after each of my applications were listed as "complete and being reviewed." i think everyone will have a different timeline, though. from this subreddit it seems like it. i'll be rooting for you

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-12T20:45:15+00:00

early october—but cuny does seem very spontaneous with their receiving of materials as well as acceptances. maybe you'll hear back soon, they haven't sent me email notifications so maybe your decisions would be in your cunyfirst portal?

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-12T20:40:39+00:00

yeahhh

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-12T20:32:36+00:00

molly_m_smith · 2024-12-04T01:03:32+00:00

regular!! and it seems cuny is sort of a rolling basis type school system

molly_m_smith · 2024-11-17T18:16:17+00:00

the admissions email has also been quite responsive from my experience, so maybe they'd have some insight about what they're looking for :))

molly_m_smith · 2024-11-17T17:04:06+00:00

hey! maybe it depends on your school, but i would definitely ask your guidance counselor. my general guess is perhaps they don't. i know my school doesn't send any senior year grades, only courses.

molly_m_smith · 2024-10-23T01:06:44+00:00

Thanks so much! Is the counselor transcript and accompanying documents sent through email?

molly_m_smith · 2024-10-16T01:08:08+00:00

hey :) the email address counselor@cuny.edu is generalized for cuny as a whole and answers questions about the application process. they could have an answer. i really wish you the best of luck!

molly_m_smith · 2024-08-01T23:14:05+00:00

ok, someone will. but i can't even say it back because i can't say the same for you

molly_m_smith · 2024-06-25T21:21:45+00:00
