I haven't gotten my official letter yet. Believe I should get the packet in 2-3 days. Then I think I should have 2 weeks to pay the deposit. Also, I think you have to complete a verification process (e.g. you are who you are) AND pay the deposit in order complete the initial registration in which case nyu will add you to the database.
As for the info in the database, it's very general... like name, employer, current job area, undergrad school, and contact info. nothing about which program or which specialization.
the count is still 158 right now. best of luck you guys! hope you guys get in!

Beagles- Did you email up NYU asking about this issue?
How about others- Claricely, Do you see your name there after depositing the fees?

The database is not split, it's a list of all students who have accepted for S08. There is no indication of program selection / core group.
The count is still at 158 (and no, I'm not there yet!).
