And thank you! I put it together when I was bored at work and wanted a handy way to visually represent my application process. My own version has a few more odd tweaks to it, but I only shared the most pertinent ones in the public version
I've added a few columns, as well. I wouldn't call them odd tweaks though, so yours sound more interesting.
I really love spreadsheets

You should join the army.

To my understanding, Texas doesn't send out waivers. You have to send in an application for a fee waiver and can only get one based on need, TFA, or Texas residency. I guess it couldn't hurt to ask for merit-based (the worst they'll say is no), but their website pretty explicitly ignores it.

Yeah I think you're right. I emailed to request, but not expecting to get one, in which case I might not apply.

FYI, I got an unsolicited one from Texas last year on 10/28.

Good look. May try and solicit one, but I was just going off of their website. Will keep an eye out.

It's up to you to change it on the spreadsheet now or wait until the median goes up on NYU's website, but I think the dean of admissions is a more reliable source than a TLSer's friend who attended NYU's orientation and "thinks he knows the median."

Fingers crossed for this!

I've been less hyped about NYU for the last week for some reason but this changed it.

Nope - good luck!

eta - thank you

Haha I know, right?!? I think it's a coping mechanism because I feel like I'll probably get in but not be able to afford it.
