<p>Priceline.com is an option where you select the neighborhood and hotel star rating. Bid what you are comfortable with and the chances are you will get a good deal.</p>
<p>I would just go on the Evanston and North Shore Visitors Bureau website for hotel options. Look on the link on the previous page that I gave someone on travel information in Evanston.</p>
<p>does nu have any classes that are pass/fail and dont affect ur gpa?
how much does rushing the first semester of college affect ur grades
should i wait to rush till lateryears?</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure I heard that you are not allowed to rush the first quarter.</p>
<p>And you can take some classes P/F, but all of your core classes for your major have to be letter grades.</p>
<p>As UC_benz tried to say, you can take classes P/N only if they are electives. If they are major, minor and distribution requirements, you cannot take them P/N.</p>
<p>Few more questions here:</p>
<p>Should I bring a printer?
Does the university have a good shuttle system (frequency, fare etc.)?
Do they have good open gym hours?
Which freshman seminar do you like the most?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>While someone mentions the freshman seminar... can you explain what it is, exactly?</p>
<p>Yes, bring your own printer unless you don't mind paying money to print out sheets. The university has multiple shuttle routes so yes it is a good system. You do not need a fare. Just present your student ID (WildCARD). The gym hours are good, but the largest gym (SPAC) has the best hours IMO on North Campus.</p>
<p>Eh, I can't really comment on freshman seminars since they are all so different. I guess my favorite freshman seminar was Contemporary Art Criticism since I have an appreciation for fine arts and art history. Choose what sounds the most interesting to you.</p>
<p>Here is more information about Freshman Seminars:

<p>I'll be going into WCAS next year too. I am currently undecided about my major, I have thought about so many different things to study. I love math and I have had thoughts about law, but otherwise I have not really been exposed to too many areas of study (just math, sciences, English, which I enjoy but are fairly broad). Anyways, I guess all I am asking is if you have any tips for an entering freshman who is undecided (sorry if you have already answered a question like this). Thanks!</p>
<p>Sawd87, take it easy and just focus on the distribution requirements. If you have college credit, that is an additional advantage. Take your freshman seminars, a few distros and one course that you find very intriguing. I also recommend a course or two in other schools. You have the entire two years (although I believe you should by the end of fall quarter of your second year at NU) to declare your major.</p>
<p>Awesome, thanks so much!</p>
<p>Hey! Silly question but...what do most people use to carry around their books? Also, if I am schedualed for a class that ends at 4:00 and another that starts at 4:00 on the same day...will I have trouble? Or does it really end at 3:50 or something? Thanks!:)</p>
<p>backpacks or shoulder bags or hands</p>
<p>Ilabcurious1423, classes have 10-minute break periods. That way, students can get from one section of campus to another section. </p>
<p>As for backpacks, it doesn't matter. Girls here though tend to wear stylist shoulder bags. I have a backpack and a shoulder bag.</p>
<p>I was wondering what the process is for rush as a freshman girl. I am from Washington state, as you can see by my user name--can't wait to get the hell out of here. At the University of Washington, rush is done a couple weeks before school starts and you live in the sororities/fraternities your freshman year. At NU, do you live in the greek houses your freshman year? When do you rush? My main question is--- should I send in a housing deposit if I plan on rushing? Thank you! PS- My name is Kate Robinson.</p>
<p>yes, you should. freshman are not allowed to rush until winter quarter, so you will be living in the dorms at the start of the year no matter what.</p>
<p>Thank you very much!</p>
<p>Another question .. is Northwestern worth debt, if I have a full ride to my state school - the University of Washington?</p>
