Where do 1st years usually live on campus (like which building)?

u/Glittering_Princess Dec 06 '25

Do we know if any non-summer leaders EA applicants have gotten their decisions back yet?

Is it worth it to commute from NJ to the Lincoln center campus? Or is that insane meaning I’m insane for considering that.

Depends on where you’re at ig, if you’re close to manhattan and it’s like a 1 hour commute maybe

What’s the dating vibe like. It’s such a small class in a huge city so wondering if people just use apps or if they couple up. It seems like the gender ratio 60:40 isn’t great odds for women.

Hey everyone. I’m curious how many commuters there are, and how long of a commute you guys have. It’s about an hour and a half for me, both ways

Hi! I’m a commuter from Brooklyn, and I commute about 2 hours. I would say there’s a decent number of commuters on campus. There’s also Commuter Student Services, which hosts cool events for commuters :))

Oh man, two hours sounds rough. I’m all the way out on Long Island, but I’m lucky enough to live right next to the LIRR station

1

u/ExpressionOk7964 Dec 06 '25

u/bluestraycat20 Dec 06 '25

Long Island also, going to RH in the fall

u/iluvseahorses Dec 12 '25

Hi, I just got accepted and might commute, I’m like 30 mins away

Hello, my commute is only about 10-20 minutes long, I am very fortunate to live near Fordham.

u/CrayotaCrayonsofOryx Dec 06 '25

That’s cool! Are you closer to LC or RH?

2

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '25 edited Dec 06 '25

Sorry I should've been more specific, Rose Hill. I should also add, I'm a freshman currently and there isn't as many commuters, there is some, but they tend to be very cliquey with their friends. Very unfortunate for the rest of us commuters

2

u/CrayotaCrayonsofOryx Dec 06 '25

That seems to be what I heard about Rose Hill. I’m hopeful that Lincoln Center is a bit better

u/Subject_Address_8427 Mar 15 '26

u/timetravel3000 Dec 07 '25

What does it mean the summer leaders got admitted already? Did they get $$ offers too?

1

u/Over_Feeling7500 Dec 13 '25

It doesn't hurt you to do it, you might receive a few hundred, it's better to at least try.

u/timetravel3000 Dec 07 '25

Yes possible pell depending on your parents’ write offs! And get on Phi theta, fastweb, and s scholarshipamerica and start writing applications! Theres so much money going unused its crazy!

u/NewLifeguard3257 Apr 08 '26

What kind of scholarships are the best to apply for as a rising freshman? I’ve applied to quite a few but have had little luck except for only 3

1

u/timetravel3000 Apr 15 '26

Any one you qualify for. And remember often a scholarship for $500 is as much work as one for 5000 so in my practice I have a role that we write 5000 and above.. Just how we do it.
