Asking an NYU parent to give some advice to recently accepted student's family

<p>Calmom</p>

<p>Answers to questions, as best as I can:</p>

<p>1) University Day…that is not Sunday in Square, is it? She got into Gallatin was it? or CAS? Sunday in the Square is CAS and maybe Stern I think. Saturday in the Square is Tisch I know. I know for those invitations that read “for outstanding students in the entering class of 2007”, it is an indication that the acceptance will be arriving later this week but this goes out sooner so these accepted students can make travel plans to attend the event which is to encourage them to enroll. Think about it, who invites you to an event for accepted students that takes place AFTER the admissions decisions letters come out, right? Besides that, when others have called NYU, as well as on their own forums, as to what these invitations mean, the answer is always to expect good news on April 1 (hint hint). I’m more familiar with Saturday in the Square and Sunday in the square but remind me which school at NYU she got into? University Day must be the equivalent for other schools at NYU. What does the inviation say? Same as the Saturday in Square one? If so, that’s the real deal…make arrangements! </p>

<p>2) Yes, mail and packages come directly to the dorm, not a campus post office like at some other schools. The student’s address will be the dorm and street address. They pick it up downstairs in their own dorm. </p>

<p>3) I don’t want to give you the wrong information on this question and would have to look up official policy but I am unaware of coed rooming being allowed. I really did not think so. Suites maybe? But again, not sure. All freshmen roomies that I know are with same sex roomies. But you’d have to look up housing policies or call. I have not heard of coed rooming at NYU but if AlwaysAMom read this, she is in her child’s third year at NYU (Tisch) and is very knowledgeable about the university, more so than me, just a frosh mom. </p>
