| I do not know how the housing works for transfers. For upperclassmen, the housing lottery is over for the coming year. You don't necessarily get your first or second choice dorm. There are many dorms and all are apartment style and the locations vary widely. My D only lived in an upperclass dorm for her soph year (plus last summer and this coming summer) but is living off campus for junior and senior years. She preferred the Union Square area and was in CAP21 (which is not your D's studio, I don't think). In soph year, she lived in Carlyle Court which is right in Union Square and then last summer and this summer is living in Palladium right in Union Square and next door to UHall (a freshman dorm). Some upperclass dorms are in the lower number streets. What you need to do is visit the housing site on NYU and read about every dorm option there. Also find out how housing is assigned for transfers. |
