<p>How do current NYU students view Founder’s Hall as a dorm? Is it only a freshmen dorm? I have heard multiple views on Founder’s Hall and I am considering it as an ED dorm.</p>
<p>yes, Founder’s is the NEWEST and it is ENTIRELY freshmen. the previously all-freshmen University Hall was converted to upperclassmen to compensate, although there’s two floors of freshmen there due to overflow.</p>

<p>which response? nouns are your friend. :-P</p>
<p>Ah sorry I forgot to specify. I meant that really big accepted-or-rejected response. That you get from colleges. Is that conditional?</p>
<p>well. . . considering you applied early decision. . .</p>
<p>you’re legally required to withdraw all of your other applications. the acceptance is conditional upon maintaining anything above a C average, not failing any classes, and graduating high school. (in other words, don’t burn all of your notebooks, you need to pass. 
)</p>
<p>…you can still get above a C and not study at all tho ^^</p>
<p>Oh ok just checking, thanks. I don’t really think I’m gonna just stop studying (I don’t really have such an option, as my parents are Indian, so they’d not let me stop studying out of principle).</p>
<p>I just wanted to make sure you didn’t have to maintain the same GPA or the the last semester listed on the transcripts’ GPA or anything like that.</p>
<p>Is there anything you can tell me about how strong the History department? Also, is tehre any statistic that shows how many people go to nyu law grad school from nyu undergrad?</p>
<p>I really want to attend CAS but I absolutely do not want to do the LSP program. I would like to major in International Relations/Japanese.</p>
<p>Is the LSP program specifically for those who didn’t get in to CAS or what? Is there any way to avoid this?
What students typically get LSP’d?
Thanks</p>
<p>Housing:</p>
<p>When do Early Decision candidates get to request our housing? Do we have priority?
Do you get to pick what type of room or what room number you want?</p>
<p>@costanza</p>
<p>the short answer is: be good enough that you don’t get put in LSP. have really strong stats. </p>
<p>and you can’t major in International Relations UNLESS you are also a POLITICS major. </p>

<p>ED students get priority housing. i don’t remember how freshman housing lottery works, sorry. :-(</p>
<p>awesome.
and because i’m annoying/curious…
is there a dean’s list or honor roll for CAS? i found info on one for steinhardt, and info about graduating w/ honors, but nothing about dean’s list or anything of the sort.</p>
<p>i know that one definitely exists, but since i’m a Steinhardter, i have no idea what the cutoff is.</p>
<p>@costanza </p>
<p>Think about LSP this way…</p>
<p>You have to take 8 classes in LSP, includinf 2 semesters of writing and 3 semesters of cultural and social foundations. The rest of the classes you take before leaving LSP can be in CAS (or Steinhardt or wherever). You can start taking classes right away in your major. Taken together, half of your classes in your first two years are in LSP and half can be outside LSP, although you can take electives inside LSP, too. LSPers also graduate from NYU with a higher GPA on average than non LSPers. LSPers do better in CAS classes on average than CAS students.</p>
<p>This comes straight from the LSP dean and the rest of the LSP panel Q&A session yesterday. When asked why LSPers on average do better than originally admitted CAS students in CAS classes, someone on the panel said that she thinks the LSP program just helps you become a better writer.</p>
