Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
there's a public service challenge certificate if you do enough volunteer hours your 1st year. I don't think very many people get it because, in all honesty, putting in like an extra 40 hours or whatever it was of your time in 1L is a pain in the ass. Just volunteer this summer and then try to do the challenge when you get to school.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
I never signed up for direct deposit, so I can't speak to that, but I was able to pick up my check on the first day of orientation. "A few days after classes started" is definitely not accurate unless there was some sort of issue with that person's paperwork.horrorbusiness wrote:if i'm signed up for direct deposit through the bursar, when will financial aid be disbursed? the site says ~10 days before classes start/3rd week of august, but i thought i remember reading someone saying they received theirs a few days after classes started.

Seriously, though, there are enough campus groups and programs to get involved in. Stop worrying about this stuff now.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
Hughes question: if i cook at least two meals a day, and i take up about one full shelf in a normal-sized fridge, should i get my own minifridge?
it seems like a pain in the ass to carry all my food to the kitchen to prepare it so i'd rather not. but if the fridges get really crammed, i guess i'll have to.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
how hard would it be to get decent last minute housing - as in right before orientation?

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
Hey does anybody have any recommendations on choosing between Commons West/City View? I know City View is nicer but it is also more expensive and out of the way. Commons West is in the heart of downtown, however, and Im worried that noise levels might be distracting.

It's ithaca. everything shuts down at 1 am. by 1:30, everything but collegetown is dead. Also buses run from the commons very frequently in the morning, and you can walk downhill at night.morally0bese wrote:Hey does anybody have any recommendations on choosing between Commons West/City View?

With city view you're going to be walking uphill at least some of the time.

This is also relevant to my interests. I will probably be brining a mini fridge but its not big and don't really wanna buy a new one.horrorbusiness wrote:Hughes question: if i cook at least two meals a day, and i take up about one full shelf in a normal-sized fridge, should i get my own minifridge?

Edit: Also do you have to worry about people taking your food. I never put food in my houses fridge in college (think something similar to hughes) because everyone would always take each other's food. Is this something you have to worry about? Or is the fact that we're all in law school enough to deter people from doing this.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
yo, at the ASW during the tour of hughes i asked about food stealing, and the tour guide said he'd never heard of that happening. i wouldn't be that surprised if it happened with ~45 people in there, but i hope not, haha.Lacepiece23 wrote:This is also relevant to my interests.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
I lived in Hughes and from personal experience, yes, a minifridge is a lifesaver. You will need to have a car or have a friend drive you for grocery shopping. Either that or pay a ton for inferio goods at Wilson Farms etc.horrorbusiness wrote:Hughes question: if i cook at least two meals a day, and i take up about one full shelf in a normal-sized fridge, should i get my own minifridge?

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
I heard you actually need to go through an approved 3rd party and rent one for Hughes. At least that's what I was told by a now 2L. https://www.mymicrofridge.com/ that's the place I was told.Lacepiece23 wrote:This is also relevant to my interests.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
when do we move into Hughes? Contract says 18th but I've seen 17th float around. Any specific time we're meant to show up?

This is very accurate, except for maybe in the winter, but nobody can predict what times will be like then.

Re: Cornell 1L taking questions
Depends on the fastest route, but probably. Most people just find someone with a car and either borrow it or go with him/her. It's not too bad. You could also call a cab if you really don't like waiting.oliverlovesyou wrote:Does it really take 38 minutes to get from the dorms to Wegmans on the bus??
