Hey, does anyone know what the deal with the roommate request form is? Isn't there supposed to be another website/portal where you fill in your preferences for roommates etc before you can decide if you want to request a roommate or not?

@mp429 - The website says the following:

 

"Your immediate submission of the Statement of Intent is very important so that we can know that you are interested in our housing.Your immediate submission of the Statement of Intent is very important so that we can know that you are  interested in our housing."

 

But the overall tone seems to indicate they have barely enough for first year PhD students, I guess they just want some enthusiasm on our part with respect to urgency.You can fill in the statement of intent and take a look at the options, you'd still have till 3 May to finalize (not binding till you pay the 1k advance).

Thanks for the feedback, oneone and Tony. And glad to see another AOSM student on here @ oneone. I'll let you people know if I hear from them, I'd mailed them asking for website details, they said they'd intimate all the students who'd expressed their interest in the program by email once the site was done, so I guess we just have to wait it out.

Hey, is anyone here definitely registering for the MacCracken housing program? I've filled in the 'statement of intent' and later mailed the concerned people, who said they'd notify everyone once the website was up. Has anyone heard from them yet? Feel free to leave me a message if so, and thanks!

I'd like to know a bit more about the MacCracken housing as well...is it really as affordable and comfortable as the NYU GSAS website makes it out to be?
