Dorm Security/ visitors

<p>Im an enrolled student in the class of 2015 and I was wondering how easy/hard it is to get visitors into your room or to have them stay the night. I feel like in a city university security would be really strict and Im hoping that Ill be able to have my girlfriend and friends stay over whenever they come to visit.</p>

<p>You are allowed to have overnight visitors (make sure your roommate agrees to the visitor and time). I forget, you may be able to have the same visitor for 3-4 nights a month total and something like 6 nights total for all visitors? If you want, I can double check on the actual number of nights and get back to you.</p>

<p>Here’s a link to the guest policies:</p>

<p>[Guest</a> Policies](<a href=“http://www.nyu.edu/life/living-at-nyu/on-campus-living/get-to-know-yourhome/guest-policies.html]Guest”>http://www.nyu.edu/life/living-at-nyu/on-campus-living/get-to-know-yourhome/guest-policies.html)</p>

<p>For overnight it’s something like no more than 3 overnight guests per visit, up to 3 consecutive nights, and no more than 6 nights in a month. A short-term guest that’s not staying over is welcome anytime, they just have to check in with security, and you could also get Guest Passes to make the process a little easier.</p>

<p>It’s a complete pain in the ass. Some buildings are a bit easier than others, but in general, it’s a hassle. Having someone overnight is not a problem, but you need to get this card and have all your roommates/suitemates sign it for the dates of your visitor, then leave it in the resource center. Then the guest gets a pass that they can show to the guard any time they want to enter, but you have to be accompanying them or they can’t go up.</p>

<p>You can’t have more than 3 people overnight at once, you can’t have any amount of people stay more than 3 nights in a row, and you can’t have visitors more than 1 week of the 4 total in the month. It’s obnoxious.</p>

<p>Thank god I’m living in an apartment. lol</p>

<p>I can’t wait to go off-campus, only problem was that I went abroad this semester so I can’t get involved in the apartment hunt for next year, so now I have to wait another.</p>

<p>I’m sure your girlfriend loves you very much. This question is so thoughtful and cute.</p>
