From there you can research admission requirements and courses. You can see right from the school what they're looking for in applicants.
Also, if you live in NY then I would reccomend trying to get their guidebook. You can also get this at uni/college fairs which some schools hold.
The following is also a good website: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
The person below gave you avg. GPAs.
The reaserach I did said the following for high school things:
High School Preparation
High School diploma required, GED accepted
Required units: 16 total
English 4
Foreign Language 2
History 4
Math 3
Science 3
Science Lab 2
Recommended units:
Foreign Language 3
Math 4
Keep in mind that the classes you need to take vary greatly depending on what department you apply for. For example, if you are going to go to NYU to study Theatre you will want to have taken theatre in high school. Whereas if you want to go for the sciences, you will want to have taken more science/math courses. Many University sites/guidebooks have specific requirements for different departments.
I hope I helped you.
