NYU Tandon MFE NYU Tandon MFE admissions thread

@quantchoices @Alex Ng -- tying this discussion thread together
The 2023 cohort has, I believe, 153 students.

We did not participate with Risk,Net last year because we had unanswered questions about their methodology.

And -- after all of the crazy news about schools doctoring their data to increase their rankings, NYU now has a centralized system for assuring that released data are accurate and that these are fairly examined by outside agencies. We am not permitted to release the number of offers made a year ago without going through this internal verification process, and right now we are really busy teaching, researching, and managing the 2024 waitlist for admissions. So this data item will need to wait, possibly for quite a while.
Thanks @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team. Wonder which schools doctor their results…
 
@NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team May I kindly ask if one could possible defer enrollment by 1 year to 2025 Fall? If not, could one keep the application materials (including recommendation letters) and re-apply next year with the same application materials?

Hi -- please direct your request to
Office of Graduate Enrollment Management and Admissions
engineering.gradinfo@nyu.edu
Phone: (646) 997-3182

This group is the one at NYU Tandon with the ability to make this decision.
 
Hi @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team, would it be posible to know if waitlist decisions have started going out yet?
We have begun making decisions. It takes some time for these to be processed by Graduate Admissions because this is the part of the sequence where they examine applicants' credentials for fraudulent transcripts and other issues. You all should expect to see this process stretch into May -- each round of admissions gets a deposit deadline and when this passes we make more admissions.

Understood, thank you for the information. Hoping to hear an update soon!
 
Hi, may I ask the enrollment number available for the waitlist? I sent email about my continued interest but they didn't reply... But I really hope to go for it
 
Hi,

I would like to know the Teaching Assistant/Fellow and Reasearch Assistant/Fellow opportunities available for MFE students.

Regards.
 
Has the application portal been malfunctioning for others too or just me? Everytime I log in it just leads me to the instructions page of a fresh 2024 application. I haven't been able to see the checklist/application status page for a few days now.
 
@NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team
Dear Admissions Team,

Could you share what proportion of students from the waitlist are likely to get an admit?(Based on your current estimate)
@NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team
Any update on MSFE waitlist students?
I have heard that students waitlisted for other courses such as MSCS and MSDS have started giving out updates(decisions) on waitlists. I was told in the last update on 28th Feb that it would take typically 6-8 weeks which is already due plus its almost May and would be too late to make a decision since many of us are depended on it so when can we expect the final decisions?

We have already admitted 25-30 applicants from the waitlist, and expect to accept a few more. We are not permitted to say what percentage this amounts to, but it is significant.
Application still shows the check list. Should I consider that there are no more vacancies and the remaining vacancies will go to Waitlisted applicants only? Request for input as there is an existing offer. Thanks
 
hello, I would like to know that when will the students on the waitlist receive the final decision? Is there still vacancies? If there has, about what proportion or still need how many students?
 
Hey @NYU Tandon MS FE Admissions Team,

Just a quick follow-up on the decision timeline. Are the notifications expected this week for acceptance only, or will rejections be included as well? It would really help us if we could get a date on when can we receive the final decision update on the application and plan ahead, especially for those needing to secure visa slots which are opening up nowadays and finalise other university options.

Thanks for your assistance!

Hi -- we will be admitting more applicants from the waitlist next week. It is possible that this is the final round, or not, depending on how many of these people decide to join us.

Hi -- we plan on doing admissions until the cohort is complete, and then notifying the others that they were not admitted.
