NYU Class of 2013 Forum

--Lovely day out, sure there are no takers for W. Sq. Park?

We should play some time during Orientation...if there's time. We can enjoy the last few days of our social freedom.

[mockstar]

Still have not received that medical information that we were supposed to get in "early June"...

[BenJ]

I have not gotten loan info yet, either.

And Swift looks like a decent enough place. I've been to Ulysses', which is down in the financial district and owned by the same people, and I like it. Objections? What time do we want to meet up? I'm off work at 5:30 and can show up around 6 or so.

^^I think that sounds great! Meeting around 6 sounds like a good idea too, since it sounds as though it fills up more as the evening wears on.

Sweet! So Swift at 6 on the 25th?
It rhymes...must be fate

Awesome, see you guys there!

And, yeah, the medical package seems to have been delayed...

[BaiAilian2013]

Hm, how will we recognize each other? Anyone want to exchange mobile numbers via pm or something?

They were really late with that last year, too. I wouldn't worry about it.

If we all wore our NYU Law t-shirts we would not only recognize each other, but also look really cool and probably cause envy among our fellow barmates.

Has anyone else gotten this little ad/info type letter from NYU about buying insurance against the loss of our tuition and board if we have to leave in the middle of a semester due to illness or accident? It doesnt cover anything else (natural disasters, family illness) and costs 500 dollars a year.

It sounds like its just a matter of deciding how to wager... shall I pay 1500 over three years on 250,000 of debt and income used up.... or shall I bet that I WONT get meningitis or hit by a bus. How are you guys gonna play it?

Yeah, I asked my mom about it. She said they have two life insurance policies on me, so if I die/become incredibly ill, etc. they get a substantial payout.

Hahaha that would make me avoid pissing them off : P But ..seriously.. my understanding was that no one really recommends life insurance on anyone unless that person is a breadwinner...I am a little confused why they would feel the need. Maybe your familys just a little insurance-happy.

I have about 40k of undergrad debt in my parents' names that will be transferring over to me post-LS. I actually kind forced them to buy a policy on me...I didn't know they had two though.

[Ayeshabelle]

Swift at six sounds great. Are we really going to do the T-shirt thing?

[clintonius]

Ha! I certainly hope not.

Still have not received that medical information that we were supposed to get in "early June"...

Nor have we gotten a follow-up about loan apps since they told us to expect them some time last week?

[clintonius]

To y'all who are going to the meetup -- would somebody be able to volunteer to show up a bit earlier than 6 and try to steal us a table? Or do we even want a table?

Sure! I can do that. How much earlier are you thinking - ten minutes or so?

[clintonius]

Yeah, I bet that would be plenty. Woohoo! Excited to meet you folks tomorrow.

I received and e-mail this week saying we should be receiving it this week. Just checked my mail and nothing from NYU.

PM'd both of you as well.

[Stanford4Me]

I just realized, I think my brother took my NYU law shirt they gave out @ ASD...

[JWicker10]

My UG roommate and I (also going to NYU Law) would be down to meet up with everyone and hit some bars/hang out during orientation. PM me or something if you're interested.

[facetious]

i probably won't be able to make it tomorrow night - i have another commitment after work, but i am going to try and stop by for a little bit if i can. but, if i don't make it, have fun, and i hope to hear all about the meet-up! and if there is going to be another one please let me know!

[BenJ]

Ugh, so I woke up this morning really sick and am not feeling any better as of now. So I almost certainly won't be able to make it tonight, sorry guys

Hopefully we'll have another meet-up when I'm not puking my brains out.

hey everyone when you sent in your final transcript and college questionnaire form did you get any sort of reply from nyu saying they received everything? is there any way to check online? thanks!

[hopefullaw27]

i didn't get a receipt of any sort.

also, both of my roommates are 2L's...is this typical? i thought they'd try to match 1L's together...

I just called admissions and they were able to tell me whether they had received it. Have your LSAC number handy if you don't have it memorized by now.
