Third North NYU Reviews

I lived in a loft in the east tower (11th/12th floors - 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, giant kitchen/living room/dining room and 2 floors). I dormed years ago when you couldn't choose roommates, so I got stuck living with 9 strangers (technically 8 strangers + 1 RA) and none of us got along, but the dorm ... See more

Controversially, I actually really like living at third north. I live in a low cost doubles, meaning it's one of the cheaper NYU dorms and I'd much rather pay this price for a small room with a kitchen than pay more for a bigger room and no kitchen. The location is one of the farther ones from campu... See more

I was expecting my dorm life when I applied for 3N because it is one of the few dorms with kitchens. But unless you can guarantee a peaceful life in the dorm and a healthy relationship with your roommates, please do hesitate before you apply for this place, according to my true tragedy. First, littl... See more

I lived at third north for the fall semester of my freshman year and it was definitely not worth the price at all.

I liked living in Third North! The building is old and not very special, but I spent most of my time in the lounge area. I was in low-cost housing and got placed in a bunk bedroom with bare space to walk between the bed and the desk. Third North is known for its rats and roaches so be careful. As an... See more

The walk was honestly a pro for me, 15 minutes isn't that bad, and you end up knowing New York just a little bit better because you're not confined to Washington Square, might be a pain convincing your friends who live closer to the main campus to come visit sometimes bc they are not used to the wal...

Third North was a very comfortable dorm for my freshman year. I lived in a double room within a six person suite. I had a corner room with two windows and a great view. Security guards are so friendly, the building maintenance team is responsive, reliable and so friendly!

I liked living here a lot. The best part for sure was the basement common area because it was a great place to hang out with friends and also had private study rooms and a dance studio. I lived in a double with 1 roommate and 2 suitemates on the second floor and I felt like it was enough space for u... See more

Unless you have a good roommate and/or a loft apartment your life will be miserable here. Rooms are shabby, poor space, lacks natural light. Kind of depressing to be honest. At least there's a dining hall.

It was my favorite place freshman year! I always look back on the fond memories, great apartment vibe so it feels more open and social. you want to have people over and are excited to meet others, i met some of my best friends here! distance from campus is definitely the 2nd furthest, but it’s cute ...
