Guys, does any one of you still have the albert portal working?
Works for me from the looks of it
Working on my end.
Looks like no buttons is the minority but I also have summer 2023 idk what to make of this
OK. Hope someone who knows CS a lot can explain why last year the ED 1 result have so many correlations with this housing thing. It is reasonable to say when the button changed, there must be something going on at the back end. But what about the status of housing?
Overall, from the observations of the results of ED 1 this year. There is not too many correlations between housing and results anymore. Not so much like last year.
I hope I am majoring in CS, especially for this occasion lol. I think the entire NYU team is looking at this discussion post, changing the portal as we struggle, and getting a bite of popcorn while listening to Taylor Swift.
i think what happens is closer to the decision release date, everyoneâs portal has âno buttonsâ, but the longer you have one button before they all officially disappears probably indicates an acceptance
good luck yall!!!
anyone applied to tandon and have summer 2023 in housing portal?
No problem. Maybe I can ask the that Openai bot for more clues. But something still a myth for me. Do NYU AOs usually send emails directly to applicants? 'Cause I feel so surprised when I received an email directly from an AO.
So I kind of infer, maybe NYU AOs do like to contact applicants directly? They just asked something about academic and stuffs maybe because it was not 100% clear on the app. But do they do this often?
Their fin aid officer contacted me but not an AO so maybe? Not sure haha

I never received emails from AOs or the Financial Aid office. Concerning the portal technicalities, inspecting it hasnât worked for me.

who has no buttons right now?
howdy with no buttons rn
After discussing with that bot, the whole thing should be some simple logics.
The server will need to know the applicant types of the student in the database and display corresponding pages depending on the applicant status.
So it can be easily concluded that if the server find the applicantâs type has changed in the database, the displayed website should change as well.
So a change in housing may mean that your applicant type (accepted or rejected) have been changed in the database.
If somebodyâs portal remain unchanged, that could mean the server will respond with the same results even if the applicant type has been changed.
So changed portal means, Undecided ApplicantâAccepted/rejected----(server)----new housing type.
Or undecided applicantsâAccepted/rejected----(server)âsame housing type.
So the whole logic of the system should be something like this. If there has to be more detailed information, we have to look at what is in the database.

So are you saying that it is possible if someone has had summer 2023 from the beginning that they probably got accepted?
Holy smokes, that is so thorough.
Say no app has to mean acceptance for a certain cycle because of this weird system. Unchanged no app means that the server knows the applicant are an accepted applicant and gives the corresponding no app page. Even if it looks like it is unchanged, if thay really correlates with acceptance, the server displays that no app page even if you have that no app before your applicant type was changed. Like:
If (accepted) then
//no app
Since it was no app way before the decision is in the database, it seems like it is unchanged.
But this year, no app may not mean acceptance.
can someone show a screenshot of what âno appâ looks like on the housing app?
If the logic is like:
If(accepted) then
// summer
Of course. But no one knows what kind of housing portal really corresponds to acceptance. It is very certain that even if the website is unchanged, that is still fine. Since that unchanged status could still correlate with acceptance according the logics of the sever.
Are talking specifically NYU server, or is this genuinely true for all servers?
