No. But that's perfect for a diversity statement.Doesthenamematter wrote:Been trying to find an answer for this on TLS but wasn't able to, hoping someone here knows. Would being a white European immigrant that moved to America between age 5-10 count as a URM?

Probably Cambridge, New Haven or NYC. I need to visit first. If New York then I'll definitely need a roommate or 2Mr_Chukes wrote:Where you headed goo goo GagaBaby Gaga wrote:off campus 1 roommate.

Re: URM 2016-2017 Cycle Thread
Well, if we both decide on Michigan, MAYBE having a roommate doesn't sound like the worst thing - depending on if you're cheap about rent or nah lol. But also, for summer start, you can sublet and I looked over some of the list and they're pretty affordable. Some are kind of pricey thoughS.Picquery wrote:UVA, Emory, and Mich.

And yeah. I thought it would be a relief and for awhile I had decided I didn't like Ann Arbor so I didn't want to go to Michigan and would go to NU but then I started thinking about it more and now I'm completely undecided again so... yeah... this is fun lol.

Re: URM 2016-2017 Cycle Thread
I've been going back and forth about housing recently. I'm very conflicted about what I'll end up doing. My apartment is rent stabilized, my landlords are great, and I really don't want to part with my furniture. I'm toying with the idea of either subletting throughout the academic year and coming back to NYC every summer, especially since my bf is here permanently, or just moving all my stuff to wherever I end up and getting a studio and subletting that during summer, or just selling my stuff and going for lowest rent possible with roommates wherever I end up.
My bf really wants me to see if I can just sublet to him during the school year but I'd feel bad if I did that and then didn't actually have much control over whether or not I worked in NYC over the summer or not.

I kinda like a couple songs but all-in-all, I've been hitting skip a lot and I'm quite annoyed by his faux island accent lolUSayinBoalt wrote:yeah, it sucksbrinicolec wrote:Not relevant to anything we've been talking about but Drake's new album is kinda trash af.
Edit: the songs I kinda like are the ones that are more of his "singing" voice that I don't even like but alas... here I am
