Yes it will. It wont be impossible to get into NYU with grades like that but you are no shoe in. Generally to get into NYU you need at least a 3.5 unweighted. It not as hard as Ivies - but its still hard. Thanks Bill

A 84% is a 2.9 here in the USA. The average for NYU is a 3.6 GPA or a 92%. You need to do better, lol. If all your other grades are around a 92% this semester shouldn't hurt you much. NYU may ask you why you did bad though. Good Luck!
