Undergraduate / Books, imagination sense/ What intrigues you? [6]

Try and fix up your grammar a bit. ie. In the first sentence, change 'set' to 'sit', perhaps. Capitalize your 'i's as well. When you said ' if he died', try and make it more general. Men are not the only characters in books. Also, fix the punctuation a bit. The overuse of periods makes it choppy and some of the periods are placed wrong.

One last thing: Make it a bit longer. Elaborate on a specific book that you read that made you elarn things that a tv couldn't help you learn

Undergraduate / NYU is the perfect institution / Why NYU? [3]

No, the prompt is, ' NYU's global network provides students with hundreds of academic areas of interest for students to cultivate their intellectual curiosity and to help achieve their career goals. Whether you are entirely undecided about your academic plans or you have a definitive program of study in mind, what are your own academic interests? Feel free to share any thoughts on any particular programs or how you might explore those interests at NYU on any of our campuses.'

Now, does the response seem more fitting now that you know the prompt?

Undergraduate / NYU is the perfect institution / Why NYU? [3]

This is my supplement for NYU and I am feeling iffy about it. Any suggestions? Please help!

Smack dab in the roar of one of the world's greatest cities, NYU is the perfect institution for a student who lives for the fast-paced motion of a city without having to compromise key elements, such as a variety of people and a myriad of opportunities that only a city offers. The ambience of its location seamlessly translates into NYU's inner core, which consists of a notable student to faculty ratio and an array of courses ranging from 'classical mythology' to 'Food Photography'. As someone who is applying undecided to NYU, the academic opportunities offered within any of the colleges creates a sense of reassurance within me about enrolling. I am certain that NYU will aid me in discovering what my calling is. I will, without a doubt, take advantage of the numerous courses, especially the witty and the 'not-so traditional' ones. I know I will procure a cosmopolitan and cultivated education at NYU; helping me determine what my true interests are - making the endeavor worth the while.

Lastly, NYU is known for sending the most amounts of students abroad; more than any other American university, something that is of great importance to me. The program in Paris is one that I am interested in. I enjoy learning about the French norm, its culture and its striking language, and I would like to extend my French studies far beyond high school. One can say that NYU is the perfect package, and most, if not all, people will agree, which is why I believe NYU is the academic match for me.
