I honestly think there will be more admit waves.
Protein, I've never needed you to be right more.
I'm pretty much basing this on Spivey saying that "NYU has a lot more admitting to do" a while ago (noting that there were far fewer admits compared to the same time last year). either that or they're going to be pulling from the WL a bunch.

Since there are still people getting results at this point, I assume there might be more admits. I second the post that says they might be waiting on Feb scores.

To those of you still waiting, and for whom NYU is the dream/the goal/the move/etc.

Stay your ass positive. We fucking GOT this. I'm feeling it, guys. There will be another admit wave or two. I just know it.

<3 kisses to my fans and frenemies. let's continue to wait in angst and be merry. it's that, or succumb to our anxiety and lay ourselves broken on the rocks of despair!

Honestly, I think the best thing to do is just assume you're going to be waitlisted and focus on a contingency plan (if you don't already have one). It takes away a little anxiety :)

My contingency plan is chaining myself naked to a Washington Sq park bench and refusing to clothe myself until NYU accepts me.

That works!

April 13, 2016 was the first day of waitlists last year.

Judging by how behind they are on acceptances compared to last year, I'm not sure if this will still stand for tomorrow.

I'm still here after 6.5 months NYU, I'm ready for whatever you throw at me.

Also at this point last year they'd already had one or two massive ding waves.

Safe to say they're super behind

Just went DLS at Stanford, so that leaves NYU as the lone school of the 15 to which I applied that hasn't gotten back to me.

There have, but what I mean is that like, one week prior to the WL waves they did a massssssive ding wave. So we haven't seen that yet (if there is such a pattern)

Got in today, to my surprise. Is there a chance they'll match my scholly to another T14 at this point in the cycle? NY is really expensive and I can't go there if they don't help me out lol.

Congrats!
To calm everyone's eventual freak out, are you international? :)

it might be best to ask on the class of 2020 thread, as we're pretty much still waiters here.

I really want you to get in. You're the NYU stan. I've, personally, lost all hope tho. It's weirdly liberating.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
