I’m not sure but if everyone can make the housing deposit then I don’t think its indicative of an acceptance or a rejection. However, don’t lose hope guys, we’ll hear back from them soon enough.
I also have the option of making a deposit however the only monetary option is to use an electronic check. Was that what you used?
Yes, and you can also check student ID at there. I am curious that only people who could check replied.
Does everyone in here have student ID?
I have a student ID
I have a student ID as well
i have one
My daughter’s profile also allows for housing deposit and she has not received a decision. My guess is that it’s a software glitch. It should be linked to offer and then acceptance. For U of I, you cannot make a housing deposit until you’ve accepted and paid your registration fee.
So only certain persons are allowed to make the housing deposit? And so that means you’re accepted?
when i spoke on phone with NYU earlier today about the housing deposit but no decision situation, they told me that a decision has not been made on my application, so housing does not indicate anything…still tempted to put down deposit though…wonder what it would do
My opinion is that to confirm something is official of NYU admission center. It must be difficult to tell something to applicants because it can be spread out. We can speculate something, but we can not get confirm from admission center.
When do you usually receive your financial aid packet??
Hopping into this thread as parent of someone who was accepted to NYU last year. Everyone has: a student ID on the bursar account, ability to get to the housing payment page (whoever said only option is e-check - that’s definitely not the case for admitted students btw, I paid my daughter’s deposit with credit card), everyone has an NYU email on global home, etc. None of these are “signals”.
@SJ2727 thank you for this helpful info!
Oh also to add, when you are actually admitted, there is a tuition deposit that pops up along with the housing deposit. You can’t make the housing deposit without making the tuition deposit before or at the same time.
I called today and was told I would receive a decision by Friday. Not sure if that’s good or bad!
@musiclover112474 hopefully it’s good news!! What school did you apply to?
@SJ2727 Someone actually made the housing deposit before getting accepted.
@musiclover112474 that’s exciting! what did you ask them on the phone? It’s pretty odd for them to give someone a specific day
@mmcowart if early May then it’s probably the 8th. I got an email that I have until the 5th to make sure the university has all my transcripts (they were missing my transcript from my summer transfer credits). So the only “early Friday” left would be the 8th.
