Finding your place at NYU

<p>How easy is it to find your place at NYU? It's such a big school in such a big city. Do people often find themselves lonely? If you're not the best at making new friends, but still are a social person, is it easy to "make it" at NYU?</p>

<p>Also, how's the party scene? I understand that Greek life is minimal, and parties get shut down quick and often. Is it true?</p>

<p>you’ll fall into your group of friends soon enough…atleast by first semester i think
you’ll find people you like mostly through ur dorm floor and classes not much through anything else - every1 is on a new boat when they get to college…nobody knows any1 and every1 wants to find new friends so its very easy.</p>

<p>There are lots of clubs and the dorms host community building events and activities. Get involved and you will find your tribe. My D was in the same boat as you 4 years ago and she is now graduating in 2 weeks. Her best friends that will be around for life were found exactly that way, at NYU. The first semester is a challenge, but everyone you meet that are freshman are in the same boat as you, eager to find their tribes and trying to fit in. Hang in there, it will happen.</p>
