Hey New Yorkers

<p>If you're an admitted student living in the NYC Metro area, holler back. At the end of the summer, the UVA Club of NY will be hosting a send-off party for you guys before you start your first year. This is a way for all the New York Wahoos to meet each other. We'll probably get a list with your addresses from the Admissions Office anyway, but I just want to make sure we don't miss anyone.</p>

<p>If you don't hear from us, you can also reach our Club Executive Director at <a href="mailto:uvanyc@uvanyc.org">uvanyc@uvanyc.org</a>.</p>

<p>I once read that UVa and Yale share the same build in NYC. Is that true?</p>

<p>yes they share the same building. its on vanderbilt--its actually really nice...although very pretentious, regardless of what the website says ;-).</p>

<p>I find it funny that people think the Club is pretentious. I've always liked it. It's like Cheers where everyone knows your name. I like going to the gym or the bar and seeing a bunch of folks you went to school with.</p>

<p>Re. the party, I'm not sure it will take place at the Club. We usually try to keep it casual. Last year, an alum with a huge apartment hosted the party. In years past, we've also done it at a bowling alley and at a picnic/softball game in Central Park.</p>

<p>Is there a fee to belong to the club? Is it like the Princeton Club which has hotel type rooms and really nice dining area?</p>

<p>My D is going this fall, we live by the Jersey Shore about 1hr from the City. Will we be invited? We would really like to go.</p>

<p>vistany,</p>

<p>yes there is a fee--depending on where you live and how long you've been graduated for it ranges from something like $100/yr to like $600/year. It's very much like the princeton club--its a hotel, dining area, gym, meeting rooms, etc. Its really nice--and in a great location.</p>

<p>Crazyadad, I'll mention it to our committee and get back to you. NJ alums might have something similar planned for you guys. If not, it shouldn't be a problem for you to join us.</p>

<p>Wow Jags!
One more benefit of going to UVa. Gosh, I hope my s gets in.</p>
