<p>Lol yeah, I guess so.</p>
<p>what a coincidence haha</p>
<p>Went to the LC Admitted Students day on Friday. I’m Ally, and I’m definitely going to LC this fall! So excited. I’m from outside of Philly.</p>
<p>And I’ve been wondering…is anyone at LC down to party…no one seemed to talk about it at all.</p>
<p>I also attended, and I got the feeling that most students attending are not the “big partier type”, myself included. Fordham prides itself on its academics, and at LC the most exciting thing is the city, not parties; it’s definitely not a big state-school keg atmosphere at all, although having not yet attended the school, I am not able to speak for the whole student body.</p>
<p>@Ally: I’d be willing to try clubbing, but I’m not a drinker for personal reasons.</p>
<p>I also agree with Meg’s perception. That’s what attracted me to it - students seem more academically oriented. I have also heard that most partying takes place off campus, as you are in the city, where there’s always something going on!</p>
<p>i think once we all get there and start making friends and getting used to city life there will be plenty of parties. personally, i know a few kids who are already going to nyu and they have their own parties as well as going to columbia parties and all that, they’re not school exclusive. </p>
<p>yeah i’ve also heard that most partying goes down off of campus which makes sense given that we have one residence hall so it would be fairly simple for reslife to bust things up.</p>
<p>but this is NYC we’re going to live in! i’m sure you could find anything you could possibly want; from parties, to ethnic food, to cultural events, its all there, just waiting for us. i am sooooo excited for next year, if you couldn’t tell haha</p>
<p>Hey guyss!
New to CC btw… joined just for this thread 
sooo i didnt apply ED 
sooo im still waiting…
ughhh! i hate this!</p>
<p>
I also attended that day and really liked it. As for parties, I’m sure it depends on what kind. There are probably more heavy drinking parties at Rose Hill.</p>
<p>
Good luck. If you look for this year’s EA decision thread, it might give you an idea of what kind of students are being admitted. Last year’s RD thread would probably help, too (though they’re going to be somewhat more selective this year).</p>
<p>oohh ok! thanks
would you by any chance know when RD comes in?
i heard end of marchh but im not suree</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The RAs don’t care about anything. </p>
<p>The apartments are created to tunnel sound into the hallway, but it doesn’t work from in your actual bedroom. And as long as you are moderately quite, then you are fine.</p>
<p>If you post about it on Facebook or have 200 people over… you are going to get caught.</p>
<p>@Monoclide</p>
<p>haha makes sense, thanks for the tips. this isn’t really related but from other threads i’ve read about reslife being really strict, especially about having guests of the opposite sex spending the night. as someone with a girlfriend of more than two years, i was wondering just how hard it is to get around this (if its at all possible)</p>
<p>
I’ve heard that having a person of the opposite sex sleep over can get you kicked out of the dorms. I did a quick search, and it seems accurate: [Residential</a> Life Policies & Procedures](<a href=“http://www.fordham.edu/student_affairs/residential_life/lincoln_center/our_residential_offe/resources_for_curren/residential_life_pol_34642.asp]Residential”>http://www.fordham.edu/student_affairs/residential_life/lincoln_center/our_residential_offe/resources_for_curren/residential_life_pol_34642.asp)</p>
<p>wow i had no idea the penalty was that severe. i mean, she goes to nyu so if we feel that a sleepover is necessary i could always just go there, its not worth getting kicked out over</p>
<p>Well, it is Catholic. Jesuits aren’t that socially liberal, haha.</p>
<p>haha yeahh i knew it wasn’t allowed but i figured it wasn’t so strictly enforced. i thought it’d be some kind of lesser punishment, but anyway its good that i learned now as opposed to later. moral of the story is never underestimate the upholding of catholic morals haha. and i mean i can still legally have her over between 6am and 3:30am so i guess its not even that bad</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Uhh, sure. But they don’t actually do that.</p>
<p>You are allowed to sign in any gender guests prior to 3:20 AM. After that point, the resident is fined for having guests. (I’ve been fined a few times – it goes onto your Bursar account.) You can get guest passes for guests of the same gender.</p>
<p>So the loophole is that you just need to get your girl friend to sign in your girlfriend and she can sleep in your room. They won’t know.</p>
<p>There have also been cases where students have collected IDs from their friends, walked outside, and then handed it to their friends and they all walk in. You don’t need to swipe in, rather just flash your id. My id is in my wallet and I am pretty sure the plastic covering creates some sort of glare, so it isn’t like the guards actually care. But if you get caught doing that… everyone will go down. </p>
<p>The school is about as Jesuit as… something that isn’t Jesuit. I can’t think of a good analogy. But they really don’t care. Everyone, and I mean everyone, is gay.</p>
<p>Fordham is reasonable and realistic. People don’t get kicked out for cohabitation. The system is there to make a statement. Yes, it is enforced to some degree sometimes, but the vast majority of the time there is no issue. </p>
<p>And the Jesuit influence is a great part of Fordham. But you can easily choose to ignore it if you’d like (although there’s no getting out of the philosophy and theology requirements haha).</p>
<p>okay thanks, thats comforting and what I originally thought it would be like haha. i probably still won’t exploit this loophole too often just because of the relative hassle it seems to be compared to just sleeping at her dorm but it is nice to know that i do have options</p>
<p>now i just need to find some roommates who’d be chill enough to allow that haha. if anyone is interested in finding a roommate and doesn’t mind the possibility of frequent guests, talk to me on facebook <a href=“http://www.facebook.com/rishi.pradhan1[/url]”>http://www.facebook.com/rishi.pradhan1</a></p>
<p>Does anyone know when RD decisions will be sent? Will it really be April 1st or will it be earlier?</p>
