<p>For those interesting, WSN has posted its annual housing guide for 2010: Founders</a> Hall | nyunews.com</p>
<p>thanks for posting</p>
<p>I think the chances of me getting a dorm are slim to none at this point: I originally commuted so I’m not guaranteed, and I’ll be a junior so the system screws over. Plus NYU is getting rid of UCourt and 26th for undergrads, so there will be 2 fewer dorms to choose from! I guess I’m screwed then. I would love to be in any of the upperclassmen dorms…obviously i have no chance of getting the really nice ones, but I would be happy with laf or greenwich, really. also, I’ve never seen or heard of the 7th st or west 13th dorms - the look super close to campus though.</p>
<p>7th is closed unless you sign up for “Green House” special program. 13th is Seniors only, for “Senior House”.</p>
<p>MissAP- any thought on Seventh? OTher than green, is it nice? redone? I know it is an older dorm. How about Second St? Thanks-- your posts are very helpful</p>
<p>Second Street is TINY. Second also goes quickly, usually filled up by sophomores. </p>
<p>I don’t know much about Seventh.</p>
<p>Anyone know anything about Palladium?</p>
<p>they made a mistake by mislabeling broome st as explorations…we’re not…</p>
<p>Broome IS ‘special interest housing’, which Explorations are also a part of. They changed the SIH application this year, it’s weird.</p>
<p>My daughter is in Palladium. The location is good, Union Square. Trader Joe is right there street level. Has a gym and a dining hall even though the dorms have a kitchen. AShe is in a 2 room suite with a common room and kitchen. She likes it.</p>
<p>Nearly every room in Palladium is the same, it’s the same layout. The only rooms that differ are the Special Interest Suites. (Women in Science and International House).</p>
<p>Stop wasting your time with CraigsList. Roommates Wanted NYC is a public event where you can meet potential roommates in a safe, fun, spam-free environment.</p>
<p>The idea is like a singles meetup but for roommates. We will have identifiers to help narrow down your search as well as discounted drinks to help reveal the true sides of potential roommates. We have identified 4 areas in the city in need of this service and will have parties in the best bars there on the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of every month starting in August.</p>
<p>Our last event on Easter Sunday had 50 people show up at Alligator Lounge. Demand has demonstrated itself already and as it becomes more regular and more known, we expect this to become the number one safest, easiest, most popular way to find a roommate in New York City.</p>
<p>There will be a sliding scale anonymous suggested donation system. $5 if you like it, 10 if you love it, and if you think it sucked just give us a note saying how it could be better.</p>
<p>We have been listed in the Village Voice and New York ****ty among others.</p>
