A Tour of NYU’s Most Expensive Dorm Room

[@OllehRebelz]

*Some things I didn’t mention in the video:* Alumni Hall is apparently the most popular dorm among students. As a result, it is also known to be very competitive to get into (possible the most competitive). Also, the costs are even higher than I said in the video: it is now nearly $24,000 per year. Also, other than the HMart, there is also a coffee shop, bubble tea shop, Japanese mart, Shake Shack, etc, all in a one-minute walk.

if you applied for alumni as soon as the housing application opened would I have a good chance of getting into there?

[@ofelijavuori8488]

Still blows my mind how expensive college and housing is in the U.S. In Sweden we even get paid to go to college/university. We also don’t have any shared dorms (at least that I know of?). If you live in a dorm situation you always have your own room. Most people live in apartments though🤷🏼‍♀️

[@debraguk]

Yes in the UK there are very few shared rooms. Our shared suites are probably for at least 6 people, some bigger.

[@cristinaom9850]

yeah, but the US has (for far) the most top-ranked universities in the world, so it's natural that the tuition in those schools are very expensive

[@Lulutica02]

@@cristinaom9850 i disagree. it is totally up to the system and not the quality. for the US, a country with a more consumerist take on everything, that is an advantage, this market its absurdly profitable (from the tuitons to the "dorm room makeovers"). the downside is, it exlcudes the ones who cant afford it, leaving them with less chances of getting a better life quality in the future and most propably maintain the same way of living and income amount as theyre parents. countrys like UK, Denmark, etc etc prioritaze equality and quality of life for all. where I live (Brazil) the public schools are the best but very hard to get in, but at least we have that. in the US even community College stuff needs to get paid (it doesent make any sense to me tbh). So i dont think one thing is linked to the other at all...

[@taylorlueg4202]

NY anything doesn’t give a realistic standard for living. It changes state by state and school by school. For example in California you don’t (technically) have to pay for community college. Also for my college I lived in a 14ft by 21ft and I paid $3900 a semester and I got my own bathroom. All these people on KZbin that post videos go to most expensive schools or the bigger party schools. Which means that they have way more kids to worry about. If u go to a small school or even a medium size school. You will start to see how the college campuses do prioritize mental health and our education. Stop using a few video you have seen to bash the entire US college system. Their is about 5300 universities in the US to give u some perspective.

So In Sweden do you enjoy complete dependence on the United States for military and economic help

[@mysterywanders]

Can we talk about how different a girls dorm tour and a guys room tour are? literally polar opposites

[@gracedlm]

loll frl

[@augustft4229]

The rate is 5-6x more expensive than my condo unit beside our campus! I even have my own bathroom and kitchenette with fixtures. The condo has its own food court/cafeteria, cafe, gym, pool, study area, conference room, and parking spaces. NY is such an expensive city to live in. :( Great vid, btw! Thanks for sharing. I remembered the refrigerator from your series of quarantine vlogs! It's still alive!

[@jinxzzop7159]

What college do you attend?

[@Lisasplace]

WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?! 11.000 PER SEMESTER? AND IT'S THIS?!

[@sushi7652]

if it was an actual apartment it would be like 5,000 a month lol (speaking from a person currently living in nyc)

[@mikeymaster2494]

@@lelands.jr.8217 Also NYC's Manhattan can be this expensive because there's a lot of stem jobs that pay a lot. Companies like Blackrock, Jpmorgan Chase, Goldman sachs, 11 trillion, 4 trillion, and 1 trillion USD respectively.

This "things" that attach window to the frame in a way that it can't be opened more than few centimiters, thoose "guards" can be detached. You will probably need a little mirror to see where and how to take them off, but it can be done, sometimes even blindly. However don't forget put them back on, because you may not be able to close the window or you'll damage it.

[@ainsleygrace557]

wow my apartment-style dorm at nau (flagstaff, arizona) costs 3,500 a semester! i share it with my boyfriend and we have a bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom! NYC is crazy

[@150pinggod2]

Just found your channel, binge watched your videos and now I'm happy for a new upload. 😁

[@kobimasselli5519]

The Jean drawer had me dying!!!😂😂😂 keep up the good work!

[@debraguk]

Why have a suite with a kitchen if you don't use it?

[@LaverlyLove]

Bruhhh I'd get an apartment for cheaper than that and it would be nicer most likely!! That's crazy

[@mintyt3392]

Fr

[@OllehRebelz]

True, but then there’s the hassle of finding people to room with, which is pretty difficult

[@LaverlyLove]

@@OllehRebelz yeah and furniture. The only perk I can see is the H mart 😅

[@OllehRebelz]

Ahaha yeah, luckily there’s also a coffee shop, Japanese mart, bubble tea shop, Shake Shack etc within one block, so that’s good

[@love_nyc_]

$22,000 per year is roughly $1833 per month and there's no way to find a studio for that price in that location so I think the price is fair tbh

[@OllehRebelz]

Yeah, but since I don’t live here all year round, the price is actually $3000 per month. Which I guess is around studio price.

[@love_nyc_]

@@OllehRebelz Oooo you're right, its not divided by 12 months, its less 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@LeLe-rf7ju]

Found your channel the other day and have been binging your videos! You’re a great narrator if that makes sense! How do you get along with your roommates?

[@trailridescj7528]

🤣 thx for the laugh of watching you explain the thermostat.

[@iviebm]

$22,000.....this covers both my tuition and accommodation fee 👀👀👀👀..u guys leaving in gold or something.....

[@jfahey20]

Can you please tell me your room number as I am trying to decide between both layouts for the 4 person rooms in Alumni. Thanks

Get like a bending cleaning stick. It will be hard but it will clean at least something on that window.

how come none of you decorated?

[@naurchleor]

Some people dont care about aesthetics. I probably wont decorate myself. Even my current room isnt decorated with stuff of my choosing. Always people putting it up themselves or choosing it for me.
