@thePlant I am also able to pay for housing for the 2020-21 academic year
Idk man I don’t want to jinx it but I hope this is a sign
Which campus and semester are you able to pay for? Also what does it say before accessing the residence application?
@akshats41 we’re able to pay for the 2020-21 academic year in the NYU New York Campus (so our freshman year of college); it says “select this application to apply for both the Fall & Spring terms”
I think the general majority could do this. I recommend not looking too much into it!
And everyone should assume you won’t hear anything till next week.
Good luck!
@thePlant I’m able to complete the housing questionnaire and everything online and pay as well when I click access application on the academic year 2020-21 portion of the portal
jw, i know it probably doesn’t mean anything but thought i’d ask~does anyone who applied for tisch have the 2020-2021 academic year? (i don’t lol). i’m trying to figure out if housing portals could potentially be different bc of different schools that people applied to.
@Anastasia614A I applied to Tisch. I don’t have the 2020-2021 academic year. The way I see it, this means one of three things:
- Tisch kids don’t have it.
- We’ve both been denied.
- The differences in the housing portal literally don’t mean anything.
I’d bet my quarter that it’s the third possibility.
i can complete the academic year application because it says it was opened for waitlist undergraduates today which i think means i’ve definitely been waitlisted. my classification under the academic year also has me listed as such.
I was granted admission early notice about 2 weeks ago, and when I entered my portal, I could access the “Bursar” office and was able to put down a deposit of enrollment for fall 2020. I don’t know if it’s this way for every applicant; however, maybe something to look for.
And for reference, the housing application means nothing!!
I can complete an enrollment deposit for Fall 2020 in the “Bursar” site. However, I do not have the academic year 2020-2021. Then again, on other threads people who have had none of these changes got in and people who had a “hint” got rejected.
if you haven’t had 2020-2021 housing pop up you got rejected sorry
It all literally means nothing. Let’s just wait for decisions to come out. (Whenever they do. Aren’t many days left in March. . .)
lol it did for ED and ED2 sorry
For ED1/2, what did people say about having the academic year but underneath it says waitlist undergraduate.
Except there are people who had the 2020-2021 housing thing in ED1 and ED2 but ended up getting deferred/denied. All of this is creating false hope.
waitlisted
An NYU student put this on the ED 1 2024 forum and I found it really helpful:
When you apply to NYU you are given a temporary ID which indicates you are an applicant, so you have access to NYU systems, but with applicant status. This means you can view things like housing and Albert, but most of what you see is extremely limited. Your view changes once YOU accept admission. When NYU grants you a place and you hit accept, your ID is changed from applicant to student ID. Before this, you won’t have real access to housing, class registration, etc, because you are not a student in the system.
Remember there are two steps to admissions, the school accepting you, and you accepting them. NYU doesn’t grant you access because they accepted you, they grant it when you accept them (consenting relationships, you see).
Yes in the past there has been correlation but there also has been correlation between every possible combo of admission/housing portal. Remember there are 6k+ applicants for ED1 and only about 20-30 of them share their portal change and acceptance results on this thread.
There is a seemingly much greater frequency of people having portal changes + getting in because people come to the thread to report changes, and return if they are admitted to share the good news.
The reality is a lot of people don’t return to a thread if they’re rejected, just to report that they won’t be going to their dream school → that’s more likely to end up on the finsta
@ab32312 I would like to remind everyone(including you) that housing is NOT a clear indicator of admissions. You cannot automatically assume that there is a correlation between housing and admissions when it hasn’t been consistent for previous years. The only way we’ll figure out if we got in or not is when we receive the email.
If you actually read through all the threads for ED1 and EDII, people say that they got accepted without changes and with changes. It is not conclusive. So unless there is actual evidence given by an official source, do not draw automatic assumptions that a certain change in housing means a difference in admissions.
