<p>@jumpin95: Congratz man, welcome to the club! And based purely on your interests, I would rank the halls in this order for you:</p>
<p>-Hayden
-Weinstein,
-Founders</p>
<p>(From your post, it seemed like these were the only dorms you were considering)</p>
<p>Palladium is not a freshman dorm, unless NYU is planning on changing that for next year. Also, I lived in Third North as a freshman and I had a good time. At first it may seem like a 10 minute walk to class is long but honestly it is not that bad. Try to get a dorm with a dining hall or a furnished dorm like Third North/U-Hall (both have dining halls btw). </p>
<p>Definitely stay in touch, and I’ll help you out during your first few weeks!</p>
