If non-Stern is a target, all T25 are reaches.
If Stern is a target, you are competitive for WashU, Penn non-Wharton, Cornell non-Dyson.

there are certainly some T25 less competitive than NYU

Less than 30% of NYU students submit test scores thats lower than all T25s. And even with that, their median is a 1520 which is avg for a T25 private.

If interested in undergraduate business school, a Stern applicant would be a peer of Harvard.

Harvard does not have an undergraduate business school. Clearly, you need to do some more research. Only Cornell and UPenn have undergraduate business schools. Maybe your DC should stick with Stern.

Washu is an easier admit than Stern. Stern is a T15 admit, except Cornell and Dartmouth which are also easier than Stern.

Well the Yale is aspirant, and Syracuse may make sense for the type of person in Ny who wants to stay nearby (Syracuse-Cornell-NYU apps aren’t uncommon in the city, but I can’t think of any overlap between Mich and NYU

Yale and Syracuse, but not UMich?

Some schools are stupid about this peer list, some are more realistic.

For example, BC's list only includes colleges ranked much higher than it like Brown, Vanderbilt, Georgetown and Notre Dame and but doesn't even include Villanova.

This is just a list of schools- why would your peer list include Caltech, Brown, Tufts, and Umiami. This is so random.

NYU is seriously getting ahead of itself. It thinks it is a peer institution to HYPSM? Hahaha. Speaking as a native New Yorker. Its more like USC. Gotten a lot more respectable over the last 25 years, but still…

This seems to be a list of schools NYU lost admitted students to

Harvard is not an NYU peer (too high).
But then again, neither is Syracuse (too low).

NYU ' 15

NYU has listed the following colleges as its peers. When applying, if you think NYU is a target school, some of these are a lot easier and a lot harder to get into. So what do you call a reach or a target if aiming for 3 to 4 safeties, 3 to 4 targets, 3 to 4 reaches?
