That's exactly what's going on, actually. There was a rape or hazing incident at DKE this year and the house is now apparently being converted to grad student housing. The location is great and the singles are going for $780/month which is pretty good. I'm very strongly considering it atm.Lavitz wrote:The building down the stairs from the Hughes parking lot? I'm pretty sure that's a frat house. So no, I don't think any CLS students live there. Not sure what your e-mail says. It would be a great location though.koval wrote:What's the deal with 13 South Ave. Do CLS students ever end up living here. Was going to do Collegetown Terrace but I just got an email about this. Anyone have any info/opinion on which option is better for living/being around other 1Ls?
Collegetown Terrace would be further away, but there would be more 1Ls living there. Unless there's some sort of "we're converting the frat house into law student housing" deal I'm unaware of.

Oh wow. I remember hearing about that incident, but I forgot / didn't realize it was that frat.King Cayuga wrote:That's exactly what's going on, actually.

Yeah, that sounds like a great deal. It's about as close to the law school as you can get without living in Hughes (or that apartment above CTB) and it's cheaper. Plus they've got that nice backyard to hang out in.

Yeah, but unless you're going to stay up in Ithaca over the summer the price per month is irrelevant compared to overall price.runinthefront wrote:I received that email,too. Has anyone been inside of the place? I calculated the singles to be $970 per month. How many months are in the academic year? late August through early May, right?

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
Just responded to the email. I'm doing it if I can get a spot. Sounds like a great alternative if Hughes is filled. Anyone else doing this?

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
Me. I just hope it's mostly law students who take the rooms, but everything else looks great. From the parties I went to there I know it's a cool building with pretty big rooms and a nice basement. I wonder exactly what Cornell will do with it though.koval wrote:Just responded to the email. I'm doing it if I can get a spot. Sounds like a great alternative if Hughes is filled.

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
Is there really any difference in signing up with email to make an account to access all the health stuff and whatever else we need to do vs waiting for our netids?

I mean, it worked for me, so I don't think so. I think after I got the netID, I activated it and got access to all the other stuff you need the netID for, if anything.Bajam wrote:Is there really any difference in signing up with email to make an account to access all the health stuff and whatever else we need to do vs waiting for our netids?

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
Hmm I see. I know you said the due date on the health stuff is arbitrary and that nothing happens if we don't postmark that stuff by June 10, so I was thinking of just waiting until I got a netid to do everything.Lavitz wrote:I mean, it worked for me, so I don't think so.

I keep changing my mind whether I'll do it by email or netid. Loling at myself for things that don't even matter probably.Yea All Right wrote:I think I will do the same.Bajam wrote:

You don't need a signature if you're sending the actual copies iirc.vicpin5190 wrote:I backtrack on my previous statement. Getting these health forms filled out really hasn't been that bad. Especially now that I DON'T need a physical (though I probably should get one soon...)
ETA: for getting a provider signature, it says on the check list (third Point, last 2 sub check boxes) that we should either get a signature of the provider who provided verification of the records or attach a copy of the records we obtained. does anyone know if i can get away with not having the provider signature if i attach the Immunization Records. I obtained both a record from my provider as well as from my UG so if I don't need the signature, I would be ready to send out the signed forms today.

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
How terrible is $1,000 a month rent for a 2br apartment (not including utilities)? I'll be financing through loans. How do you find this fitting into the "moderate but realistic" estimate of cost provided by Cornell?
My other concern is finding someone to sublet an apartment during the summer months next summer.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Cornell Class of 2017
You should really be able to do better, unless you're looking to live in the lap of luxury for the next three years. If you want you could try talking to Cornell's director of graduate housing about the new law student housing.Trippel wrote:How terrible is $1,000 a month rent for a 2br apartment (not including utilities)?

I tried to get a 2BR Collegetown Terrace apartment for $1000/person but they ran out. I think you can get well-equipped options for about that price but clearly there are cheaper alternatives out there. I just wanted a nicer place for living while attending law school.

when you've been around the group of 2Ls for long enough, it takes very little of their "banter" to annoy you.vicpin5190 wrote:When you've been around the internet long enough, it takes a lot more than some 2Ls posting in a 0L Fbook group to annoy you..toothbrush wrote:it's probably annoying. you can be honest.riverwater wrote:it's whatever
