NYU email?

I finally committed yesterday and paid my deposit. The website says that my “NYU email” will be sent to me via email so I can set up my housing and stuff. But I’ve heard that people can make the NYU email by themselves, but the preferences section has my email as “unavailable”. Should I just wait for an email? I don’t want to miss the application for my residence hall haha

The housing application is available through NYU Home or [here[/url]. Sign in with your NetID and password. NYU’s ServiceLink has articles regarding how to set up/troubleshoot various IT issues, so you might want to look at [url=<a href=“https://nyu.service-now.com/servicelink/search_results.do?sysparm_document_key=kb_knowledge,6ec9c278e1b5d580bbcfaf7b3f8f7d94&sysparm_search=set+up+nyu+email%5Dthis”>https://nyu.service-now.com/servicelink/search_results.do?sysparm_document_key=kb_knowledge,6ec9c278e1b5d580bbcfaf7b3f8f7d94&sysparm_search=set+up+nyu+email]this article about setting up NYU email](http://housing.nyu.edu/).
