<p>If you don’t pay on time, you’ll get a hold on your account. Holds prevent you from doing I Am Here registration. If you don’t do that, any classes you are in (on the first week of classes) will be dropped- preventing you from being a student until you’ve paid.</p>
<p>So even though you might not have classes right now, you will when it comes time to do I Am Here, and you better not have a hold on your account then.</p>
<p>Plus I heard it’s really hard to get a hold off. Lots of phone calls, angry emails, waiting for responses, all to find out that the classes they kicked you out of are now full.</p>
<p>In August…? they originally said mid June, then sometime Mid July… now sometime in August. Hopefully they have enough housing and don’t expect students to find their own housing within less that a month of school starting.</p>
<p>Ya the transfer facebook page disappeared for me too. </p>
<p>They have really done a horrible job with housing assignments. I am not even signed up for a meal plan. I am not even sure I am going to be needing it depending on the housing. </p>
<p>And I have already started to pay installments on my bill.</p>
<p>If I find out I am going to be charged 3k + after I have my monthly payments already set whats the point in that.</p>
<p>So it seems like the housing link is now available in the portal. However, it says “unavailable” for me whatever that means…oh neu, how I just want to know if I need to get an apartment.</p>
<p>I talked to the housing department today and was told that I would hear from them “soon.” I asked how soon and the lady said not even a week. I didn’t really believe her but that’s the latest info from me.</p>
<p>I just heard from the housing. I got a single in YMCA building. I have been googling it but not much information on it. Anyone knows if YMCA is a nice place to live?</p>
<p>@mrmgil How did you hear about the housing? Sorry I don’t know much about the YMCA, but I think it is somewhat of a last resort for Northeastern to place students in. I still haven’t heard, so I am hoping for atleast the YMCA, plus you got a single which is nice. But did they email you on your NEU or did you have a link on your account? I have a housing online link, but then it tells me that housing is not available for me at this time…</p>
<p>I got an email on my NEU about 10:30 this morning. My housing deposit was paid in April. If yours was paid around those times, I think you should hear from them soon as well. Good luck.</p>
