Hi! I'm about to be a freshman at NYU living in Lipton hall in a triple studio. I was looking at the floor plan for my dorm room, and I saw that there was an entire corner dedicated to closet space that I thought was arranged kind of weirdly, especially considering there's a bed squeezed right next to it. Is it possible to move the closet space things around the dorm, or can you only move your beds and desks?

Also, does anybody have any advice for making minimal dorm space work? Thank you!

Taking calc 3 this semester. If anyone has experience with either of these professors I’d appreciate hearing about it!

I got accomodation in NYU's Pallidium hall. I am joining NYU on Sept 2026. I need information regarding kitchen of single occupancy.

1. Is there hotplate or gas stove?

2. Am I allowed to use pressure cooker?

3. Do they provide any utensils or ive to bring all of them?

Hi guys wanted to ask

Does anyone have experience on this. Whether it’s grades or something else.

Hi everyone,

I'm a University of Sydney student in Australia thinking about applying for an exchange semester at NYU Paris next year, and I'm trying to get a better idea of what the workload is actually like. I've looked through the course catalogue, but I was hoping to hear from students who have experienced it firsthand.

I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions:

• How many classes did you take during your exchange/study away semester?
• How many days per week were you on campus, and did most classes meet once or twice a week?
• What was the workload like outside of class (readings, homework, essays, presentations, exams, etc.)?
• Did you feel you had enough free time to explore Paris, travel on weekends, enjoy living in the city, etc.?
• Looking back, would you say the workload was heavier, lighter, or about what you expected?

Thanks so much!

Hello! I'm a female upperclassman looking to swap out of my dorm at Third North (double in a 6 person suite). If you're interested in swapping or you're planning to cancel your housing license at another manhattan upperclassman dorm, please feel free to comment/dm me and we can discuss details!

hello all, i'm an incoming freshman and was wondering what day and time move-in appointment registration would be considered early and ideal? i'm really not trying to book a hotel for another night (aka i want to move in on august 28 rather than aug 29 if possible) and i live on the west coast. just curious as to what other peoples times are?

I'm a incoming freshmen spring admit at nyu and I'm confused about the dorming situation. I saw a tiktok that said all spring admits gets placed in third north dorm? So does that mean as a spring admit I don't have options for dorms?

I'm a junior and after striking out on internship applications earlier this year I spent the summer building a web app to figure out what went wrong. I realized most companies just run your application through screening software like Workday or Greenhouse first. It looks for exact keyword overlaps. So if a posting asks for "data-driven decision making" and you wrote "analyzed reports" the software misses the connection entirely, even if you did the exact same work. You won't catch it yourself because you already know the context behind your own bullets.

I put together a site that compares your resume against a specific posting and shows where the wording doesn't line up: resume.zoevera.com

When I ran my own resume through it, bullets I was proud of matched almost nothing in the postings I'd been applying to. If you're looking for roles, it's worth checking your text against a few real job postings before sending applications. Worst case, it just confirms your resume is fine.

what's the consensus on NYU SPS? i have read that a lot of *outside* students of NYU perceive SPS as a "joke" or "easy" school. as an NYU SPS student, why don't you provide evidence on why it's a lesser NYU school rather than just comment a bunch of elitist garbage. of course, not all NYU schools are the same but it's a bit unfair for people to assume SPS is completely inadequate.

Hey everyone!

My brother will be transferring to NYU this fall. He’s from Washington State and is having trouble finding housing. Most apartments we’ve contacted don’t reply and time is running out. Where do most NYU CAS transfer students stay? Is it common for students to live in Jersey City/Hoboken? Ideally, he wants to live somewhere in the city but he definitely wants to live in a student populated area.

If anyone has an extra room available or has some recommendations, please let me know! His budget is $1,700/month maximum.

Hey guys! My team and I are participating in the 48 Hour Film Project from August 7th-9th. We have the full team essentially already, except for a dedicated sound person.

All of the production would take place on August 8th, so the only stipulation would be that you would have to be available all day that day (if you wanted to participate for pre and post, you are also more than welcome). If you have a boom mic, or could have access to one for cheap, that would also be a big plus!

If you are interested or want any additional information, feel free to DM me!

Hi guys
Need a real advice here,

I’m an incoming international fall transfer. Classes are supposed to stary on September 2.

But I’m Nat sure if I will have my visa on time to be able to attend classes on time.

Would it still be okay if I were to begin class mid September or late September?

Do we right our names down on a card then they say our names?

I’m looking for an NYU student to record and put together a wedding recap video/behind the scenes reel.

The wedding will be on August 1st in the Lower East Side. We can compensate with travel and food. The photos/videos can also be used as part of your portfolio.

Open to all levels of videographers. Just DM me with your info and some prior work.

hi, is anyone else having an issue with not having the option to accept or decline financial aid package yet???? i’ve been emailing silver social work financial aid and 0 responses back, and i have been trying to call and the hold is over 500 minutes. i keep asking when i should be able to accept my aid but zero response. is anyone else having this problem? i’m literally so stressed and it’s freaking me out ): i made an appointment on friday to talk to head of financial aid, but i was told that he’s been extremely behind on answering emails

I'm an incoming transfer looking for a course or two that's easy and fun/engaging to balance out my other difficult/rigorous courses. Preferbaly looking for 4 unit courses.

Heard the class itself is easy and engaging but I see mixed reviews about the professor on ratemyprofessor. Are there easier/better classes in CAMS that's also maybe more engaging?

Hi everyone, this is a long shot & I'm not sure this is the right subreddit but going to try my best.

I'm an Applied Psych NYU alumna and in my second year of grad school for mental health, wellness, & counseling. I used to be pre-law and then switched over to the mental health/pre-health field, and would love to explore more work opportunities in hospitals like NYU Langone.

Thing is, I don't even know where to start. I tried looking on LinkedIn, Handshake, even Langone's career pages, talk to professors - but I can't figure out what sort of positions I am eligible for/can apply for. I'm interested in research (having some mental health/suicidal ideation in BIPOC population work experience) and anything with healthcare coordination, scribing, etc. I kinda wanna know what it would be like to work in a hospital setting before committing to pre-health entirely or maybe switching over to working in a school.

Any help, tips, leads, or even words of encouragement would be GREATLY appreciated. Job market and world is hella scary.

If you are in a single room and are planning on cancelling your housing agreement or wanting to switch to a double room. Please swap with me. I’m currently assigned Double Studio Alumni Hall

I’m starting an MS in Computer Science at NYU on September 2. I have previous graduate assistant, administrative, and study-abroad agency experience.

How realistic is it to get an on-campus job and start working when the semester begins, even though I’m new to NYU? Should I start applying now, and where should I look?

Title is self-explanatory, but I’m going into the mental health counseling program here, and I wanted to get thoughts and opinions on those who are in the program now/graduated from it. Particularly, level of difficulty, how was transitioning from undergrad, things like that. On a related note, I’m eligible for work study, and I do want to try and find a job, but I’m not sure how easy it will be going into a new school, especially a graduate program, and also balancing a job. The amount I’ve been offered is fair, but should I wait until next semester to use the funds so I can see how my first semester goes and think about balancing a job (is that possible/advisable?). I’m slightly anxious about transitioning in general, but more so because I don’t want to overextend myself and burn out/tank my GPA off the bat. Please give your best advice for the situation 👍.

Is there a restriction on when fall 2026 students would be allowed to register for oncampus jobs?

Because I can register for the particular jobs but I haven't really gotten any news back from any of them, Is it perhaps not the right time?
