<p>I'm going to NYU Poly and she's going to Tisch but if we dorm together then at least I/she has a good roommate (doesn't smoke pot, isn't a klepto, etc) our parents will feel a lot safer and it'll make it a lot easier to adjust from a super conservative and closed asian community to NYC. We actually started talking over Fb but we went to the same middle and high school, same school clubs and everything same sense of style, etc. It'll also mean we have someone to speak our language in and someone who celebrates the same holidays, eats the same food and is the same really rare religion) Which is awesome. And we get along pretty well over chat.
Is this a good idea? What do you think? And should/can we dorm at Poly (clean Brs) or Washington Square? (Washington Square is probably best because it's also closest to my boyfriend) and that's the only problem. If we dorm together then I can't have my boyfriend sleep over without my parents finding out. (everyone knows everything. EVERYTHING)
So. IS it a good idea? Should we do it? And how do I ask her?</p>
<p>I am concerned because it’s far though. My mum is worried about the travel and thinks I should dorm with ‘people like me’ :(|) </p>
<p>Im pretty sure that under nearly no circumstance does NYU allow anyone to choose their roomate so this really is not something to consider…</p>
<p>NYU 100% let’s you chose your roomates. Both daughters did it as freshman.</p>
<p>I was wrong! New policy is in effect and freshmen cannot chose their roommates!</p>
