I thought that was weird as well. All you gotta do though is go to your NYU e-mail and once inside you can use some search feature to find everyone's e-mail address if you know their first and last name. It is kind of hard to find though, took me a couple of minutes bumping around there.
I guess the "prospective" part won't become official until both people return the contract, thus they don't put you in touch until then.
I did google my prospy, and snooped him that way...pretty impressive dude.

Maybe I am stupid, but how can you tell?
I could not understand the room number logic to save my life...
They gave us a link for it. I dunno...not too worried about it, but if it is cheap, I will probably get it.
If anybody checks into the cost, please post.

I asked about the rooms and for example if room is 6FI then 6F is the unit and your room number is 1. the rooms are already assigned.
Is 6 the floor number? What is a unit? Is "F" for female?
Where's the link for renter's insurance?

It is mentioned in the housing info we just got - a link, or a phone number, is listed.
That makes a little more sense, but my "room number" has an extra alpha in the code that I have no clue about. Oh well, I will just have to be surprised when I move in.
So your room is pre assigned, meaning you can't pick which room you want in the suite in case you "beat" your suite mate to the move in? That is probably the fair thing to do...I realize they are basically identical, but there could be a diff in view, and diff in nearness to the toilet...
hi i have an extra white coat ceremony ticket that i'm willing to sell. please pm me asap
RE renter's insurance: in one section of the housing info, it says "strongly recommend," and in another it says it is mandatory...anybody called yet for clarification?
It also says you need insurance for "bodily injury" - that isn't to insure against your bodily injury, but if a guest in your apartment suffers such...I have never had any such insurance in a dorm or apartment, but I guess NYC is a different place...

I currently have renters insurance and will continue to have it. It's generally pretty cheap. Plus, it offers a sense of security if you have expensive stuff (eg electronics, jewelry).
They're all tub/showers with plastic curtains, but you can bring your own if you want it to look nice 🙂

I assume each bedroom has a cable connection, not the common area.
Good question on a lamp. I would say yes.
Honestly, housing could do a lot better job of informing us, posting pictures, etc.
From what I remember when I saw the units, the "common area" is more of a hallway than it is a room.
My bad: No link, only a mention to get it. Your best bet is to check for companies on the internet, or maybe inquire with the company that insures your family home.
Yea, the welcome mats are rolling out, the lobby looks remarkably difft even from yesterday.
Yes, it's a shower/tub combo, they come with plain white curtains.
They're old mattresses, but in a recent email they said you could bring your own mattress if you contacted them ahead of time to let them know. You could also take a trip to Ikea in Brooklyn or go to BB&Bynd just a few blocks away to buy a new one (which is what I did).
Regardless, you definitely need clean sheets and blankets.
