<p>I'm going to New York tomorrow (I know, with my grade mix-ups I probably shouldn't, but there's no way I can get out of this) and I want to take advantage of the opportunity by visiting my first choice school, NYU. A friend of mine suggested meeting some people there and getting some connections. I found that to be rather vague, so any way I go about doing that?</p>
<p>You should of course stop in the Admissions office and take a tour or have an info session while you're there. And fill out an "I visited" card. Check their website to see when they offer tours etc. now and what hours Admissions is open, since it's summer. Have you visited the NYU forum here at CC and asked if anyone will be on campus and willing to show you around or talk with you?</p>
