The Housing Thread: NYU Class of 2013

Colleges and Universities A-Z New York University

<p>I got my accept package yesterday, and it had a lot less information on housing than I thought.
I'm most likely going to opt for the cheapest choice, but since this is a pretty important decision, I thought it would be appropriate to consult strangers on the internet on their opinions.
Ex:
I am probably going to go with Hayden or Rubin because the packet they gave me said they have the cheapest rooms. I'm also no stranger to walking a mile to school everyday, so it's not a big deal.</p>

<p>What about y'all? and why?</p>

2

<p>can you list some options, im interested as well. how much exactly do they cost?</p>

3

<p>NYU</a> > Department of Housing</p>

<p>it has price for all the options</p>

4

<p>if money is the issue, hayden, brittany, and rubin could be ur choices.</p>

5

<p>heyy..just a quick question..are the dorms coed??lol..since its like renting houses outside the school</p>

<p>twitty// well i havent gotten my package yet cuz i live in a country where it takes virtually forever anything to get through. NYU sent me a envelope about sth else on Nov.13th, and i got it yesterday, which is a month later. But i'm kinda hopin the package will come earlier than that.... can i ask what's in the package? </p>

<p>And i think imma gonna look for dorms that's closest to the Stern building, cuz i'm not much of a walk-to-school type. Do the costs differ that much? Gosh i want to get the package now..</p>

7

<p>NYU doesn't choose the dorms for us? We get to decide?</p>

8

<p>in the package it has a purple binder with a letter, two booklets, deposit thingy, and financial aid info, </p>

<p>wooot</p>

9

<p>Yeah, but a lot of people don't get their first choice. It's a whole big lottery system. And ED kids are first-priority for dorms, so that's good.</p>

10

<p>^ that's good to know, thanks...!
I thought dorms were scattered all around the city, and we were randomly posted to places with the ppl NYU chose for us to live with. So i get a choice..... but could this mean that i may not be staying with the ppl from the same major?? There's only 50 ppl in BPE (so the school says)...</p>

<p>Btw, Congratulations bimachris!!</p>

<p>Isn't it part of the fun to be living with people with all sorts of different backgrounds and all pursuing different goals? At least for me, that's part of the fun.</p>
