In at NYU Forum

[hotthaichick]

Haha yeah I'm so excited:) I think there's a good chance I'll be at NYU next year, if I'm able to justify the absurd COL in New York to myself... is anyone here considering living on campus?

Yes +1 to everything you've just written

[ahduth]

Not really, campus housing seems expensivo. But if it's your first time in New York, I might recommend it for the first year.

at first i was totally disinclined to live on campus, but i figure the move will be so overwhelming and i don't want to isolate myself the first year. i figure living among students going through the same thing will help me adjust to my first year at nyu law lol. then i can move my second year to somewhere else, once i know where to look, etc.

then again, i've yet to see the nyu law housing!

for anyone whohas already filled out the fafsa or needaccess, am i the only one who neglected to fill out parental financial info? i am on my own after undergrad so i figure it would be irrelevant...what do u think?

You definitely need that info on at least one of the forms depending on which schools you're sending them to. I'm pretty sure NYU requires it on needaccess but not on fafsa so you'll want to go back and fix it.

For NYU, you only need to fill out the parental info on Need Access if you're hoping for need-based aid. For merit aid, you should be fine. I'm not sure about other schools though...

But is there really any point in NOT trying to get need-based aid? I mean, it's 25-30 minutes of your time...

[mst]

And untold amount of time for your parents as they navigate the shitshow that is need-access. And even though your own might take only 30 minutes (that's being extremely conservative), it feels like 30 years.

[melamine]

wow - that needaccess form is just useless. how was i exactly supposed to estimate what was in like half of the boxes????

eh, i know. it is so annoying! i guess i should go back and try to fill out the parental info, and endure my father squawking on the phone with me for what feels like forever...

am i the only one in undergrad who no longer cares about her grades? i am procrastinating BSing a paper on shakespeare now that is due in <48 hrs and am wondering if NYU would revoke my admission based on poor semester grades....gah. does anyone know if we must send in our final transcript etc? or does anyone know if our admission may be revoked?

i am worried but calm because i am already in at NYU law! hollaaaaa <3 =)

I think we do have to send in a transcript and dean's certification so they can verify our bachelor's degree since it's required for law school. But since they report our grades that we apply with they're not going to freak if they drop a little. I wouldn't go crazy, but I'm not breaking my neck to try and get a 4.0 either. But yes I feel your pain. And I still have to keep working on my senior honors thesis.

ooh, i'm impressed by your will to write a senior honors thesis! i've no motivation now that i'm accepted by nyu. good luck with it!

as long as our reported GPA remains, i guess it'll be ok. my lsdas gpa of 3.93 has already dropped to a 3.9 from last semester, and will likely decline more come april...

oh, it is painnnnnful to care about undergrad! i am so procrastinating this paper by creeping on this forum.

I think there's nothing wrong with being excited about NYU. I certainly feel very lucky to be accepted. And my honors thesis is dominating my life...I wish I could blow it off.

[thecilent]

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm excited too. It's sweet.

haha, i do need to relax i guess. i feel fortunate to have been accepted by nyu and fear that if i get a bad grade in a class they could revoke my acceptance. idk. thanks for making me realize it wasn't a lottery lol...

[mst]

Yeah, I'm still chugging along for minimum grades needed to get honors, but seriously: not a lot of effort involved in getting 8 credits worth of B+/A-...

[glitched]

i was a fraction of a grade from losing my honors. lol be careful man.

[hoping]

does anyone know when we hear about merit scholarships...didn't apply for any named ones!

[neonx]

Is anyone hittin' up the April 1 ASW?

[mst]

Is anyone hittin' up the April 1 ASW?

yo.

[c_dubya_s]

Is anyone hittin' up the April 1 ASW?

Thinking about it--I need to coordinate with my job, so I'm not sure yet.
