<p>Just paid my deposit. Yay. Here we go NYC.</p>
<p>I was wondering… the $1500 deposit includes the housing deposit, right? so far, that’s the only thing i need to pay right now?</p>
<p>So I’m coming into NYU after 2 years of college, with 60 credits, all of which were accepted by NYU, but 45 of which are considered “extra credit” even though some are exactly what my major (Dramatic Writing) offers. Albert said my academic level was a Freshman. I called the office to inquire, and was told that actually I will be a sophomore. BUT I already took basically the same classes that the major offers, and I’ve already done 2 years of college. I was really hoping to graduate in 2 years, you know, like you’re supposed to. Instead I may find myself repeating Sophomore year, and I don’t know if I can afford that. About two weeks ago, I sent my department an email with classes I believe should receive departmental credit, but received no reply. I just re-emailed the same thing again today and waiting. If they don’t accept my credits, I may not be able to attend, and it’s the worst feeling in the world. I’ve wanted this, I’ve gotten this, and now it’s slipping away.
Lesson-- check your academic status, make sure you’re going into the year you should be going, and I hope your luck was better than mine.
:(</p>
<p>So, I just want to check if I’m not making any confusion…</p>
<p>For those choosing to live in the residence hall,
First we pay the $1500 fee, then we still pay more $1000 for the housing reservation?</p>
<p>I paid the 1500 and I thought it included everything. But my housing reservation payment is showing as not received yet, which seems I have to pay an extra 1000. Is that right? Im totally confused if I still need to pay that.</p>

<p>dewey13, where/how do you see which year/academic level you are in? I dont see mine in Albert</p>
<p>@Bosbr100
On the main Albert page there’s a link to Student Center. There, under Academics click My Academics on the left-side bar. Then, at the bottom right-hand of the my academics page is your academic level.</p>
<p>Guys, just to clarify my previous queston… I was just wondering if the $1500 covered the housing deposit and the website is just not updated, or if I still pay an extra $1000?</p>
<hr>
<p>dewey13, I can’t find :s haha
when I go to the main Albert page, I dont see the link to student center</p>
<p>It takes some tine after being accepted until that function shows up on Albert</p>
<p>It makes sense. I was accepted a week ago, so I’ll keep checking. Thanks!!</p>
<p>By the way, you guys can disregard my other question. Someone from NYU just confirmed the $1500 covered tuition + housing deposit.
In case someone was wondering the same, it takes a few days for housing to receive and update your status. So don’t worry if it shows not received for a while.</p>
<p>Got into NYU STERN!!! YAYYYYY</p>
<p>Today I was able to check my academic level and it says freshman. But I haven’t submitted the grades of my final semester yet, so I believe that’s why. It will probably show sophomore once I submit them.</p>
<p>@Dewey13 I’m in your boat. I am going to be a junior transfer to tisch for dramatic writing but it says freshman and it did not accept any of my dramatic writing classes as major classes. I think it is because they want us trained a certain way. I know all my other classes took care of all the other graduation requirements. This might be true for you as well.</p>
<p>@megs37 Same! Freshman status (when I called they said Sophomore), and no dramatic writing credits. Out of my 60 credits, NYU considers 45 as elective credits where the graduation requirement is 27. The 18-credit difference is the classes they should’ve considered dramatic writing credits. This sucks. I don’t think that they want us trained a certain way. I mean, ideally, sure. But in practice, I think they just want another year of our money.</p>
<p>I still have not heard back…is anyone else also waiting? I think they probably lost my application at this point… :(</p>
<p>Dont lose your faith, guys! It does seem it take forever, but sooner or later you guys will have a decision! Good luck :)</p>
<hr>
<p>Does anyone have more info about register for classes, orientation, move in, welcome week… ?
By the way, are you guys going to the welcome week? I would need to book my flight a week earlier to the US, so I was wondering if it’s something we shouldn’t miss</p>
<p>Hey, those who were waiting, did you guys get a decision? and everybody else, did you guys decide to go to NYU or somewhere else?</p>
<p>I got addicted to this thread and it was nice to interact with so many of you. Good luck to you all in whichever school you’ll be attending in the fall! :)</p>
<p>@bosbr100 Pretty sure you have to attend Welcome Week. It’s our only transfer orientation.</p>
<p>JaguarPaw, yeah I’ll definitely attend. I thought it was something else, but i researched and welcome week sounds pretty nice to attend actually haha can’t wait to meet you all in the fall</p>
<p>HEY GUYS i know that $500 is unrefundable deposit. But what about Housing deposit $1000? Is it also unrefundable?</p>
<p>qwerasdfzxcv111, I’m not sure if it’s refundable! But wait until you are 100% you will attend NYU, to pay the housing deposit.</p>
<p>Does anyone know how to get access codes for classes?</p>
<p>if we applied for housing does anyone know when we find out?</p>
