********Perspective/Reflection on House Change theory*********

@Chalamagne916 I have the exact same page as @confusedsenior28

I have the same as @hannamals and @ham2016

How do I post a screenshot over here?

@confusedsenior28
Make a screenshot and upload here: http://postimage.org

Here is what mine looks like http://postimg.org/image/fn0w6m9jz/

@ham2016
OMG, it seemed like it became a completely different landscape from previous years’…
So i have no idea what it meant by any means.

@confusedsenior28 @ham2016
Then i logged in and checked my page: they apparently updated it…
It seems like that the Academic year 16-17 should be the one that may indicate something (i am purely guessing
I guess that the Academic year 16-17 should be the Fall in NYU in the old version of housing site.
Possibly you all can despite the summer sections and just look at spring and academic year 16-17 (Fall).

I have Summer 2016 and Academic Year 2016-2017. When I click on “Access Application” for Summer 2016 it takes me to this 12-step application process…any thoughts?

I only have Summer 2016 with 3 options like @confusedsenior28. No academic year 2016-2017

@Seafoam345
Don’t mess around with the housing app before you get admitted…
@TalkTheTalk I have no idea how it works then…

I guess well just wait and see

I have the same as @hannamals and @ham2016

I am able to fill out a 12 step housing application, but I was rejected with guaranteed transfer from BU so I don’t really know what to make of this.

My mother went to NYU, but I only have a 27 ACT so still unsure if this is good or not

Hey guys, I had to join into the conversation.
I have what @ham2016 but mine also includes NYU Paris in the “Summer 2016” option.

@Chalamagne916: How do you know that it’s freshman? Does it explicitly say “Freshman” under a certain category?

And mine doesn’t say “Fall”? It says “Academic Year 2016-2017” When I click on that, it goes to a “Term Selector.”

@malibulover @newyorksports98
Please go through page 1 and 2, my responses are there.
I can’t be sure of it; i was just sharing my observation and made the theory as intact as possbile

@Chalamagne916 doesn’t know the answer. I don’t see any value of your observation and instead making us more confused. Let just wait for the decision instead of reading observations and speculations that may be misleading.

@rocky789
Surely i don’t know the answers.
The fact is that this theory has been used for 2 years, while it also seems to be credible for 2016 ED2 applicants, until they change the whole appearance of the housing page, which possibly can completely undermine this theory.
One of my assumption when writing this thread is that NYU won’t fix this glitch/bug until later.
And i clearly state it in my writing:
“also based on the assumption that NYU officials won’t fix this boon indicator of a surprising nature”

Anyway, only three days left. Wish you all the best of luck!

Admitted to Stern yesterday. This housing portal speculation should be retired since it is misleading and is not true. Even if this theory worked in the past, it is already history and provide no more value anymore!!! I just hope that future applicants won’t waste their time trying to find clues to predict the decision outcome. Good luck!

Housing theory is FALSE!!! i was non-renewable undergraduate the whole time leading up to 5pm ET and i was admitted. don’t worry about silly theories… (also dont worry about the FA “box” theory–I did not have a box but was awarded a scholarship!)

The housing theory has not been “proven” to be false. Even in the past, not getting the change didn’t neccessary mean a rejection but getting the change was a good sign in a lot of cases. Yesterday, the people who said their status changed to freshman a few hours before results came out later all posted that they got in. Again, not getting freshman did not neccessarily mean getting a rejection. The theory definitely saved me a few hours of stress.
