"it's a lifestyle I'm adjusting to"
Come on, what would Elle Woods do?
im irrelevant but i read this right as she said it
WOW😍😍😍🤗😍😍😍😍😍😍
It's a lifestyle I would like to adjust to lol
I’ll expect more from havard though... i mean it’s Havard
It's Harvard not havard
But tuition is insane.. they needa remodel
It’s a very old school that’s why
@@egesukari4758 Tuition doesn't pay for housing. Housing fees pay for housing.
Hello! Just wanted to clarify a few common misconceptions I often see in the comments section:
1) Not all Harvard dorms have this layout! There are plenty of doubles, triples, and quints, and it’s pretty uncommon for rooms to have bunk beds.
2) I loved my room so much! It was wonderful, and I promise it is nowhere as bad as a lot of commenters seem to think it is. Even the bathroom isn’t as bad as this video makes it seem.
3) A lot of people comment that they thought the rooms would be higher quality “considering how much the tuition is”. While the tuition is high, don’t forget that Harvard has the some of the best financial aid in the country! Also, our tuition goes towards many opportunities that we receive as students, not just the dorm. I promise you that no Harvard student regrets their choice of college based on their dorm room.
Hopefully this clarifies a few things, and thank you for watching!
Claire Fridkin I loved seeing that the dorms were just like other schools! Old, kinda outdated. It’s bigger than a lot of other freshman dorms are too. Anyways you’re there for the education, not for a fancy living space. Dorms are dorms!
Claire Fridkin that is absolutely true. We all get caught up in expectations that we tend to forget the main reasons students choose this school. It is a wonderful school because of the level of academics and the students drive to get the best education they see fit, not for the darn dorm rooms. On that note, I have an idea, you should do a walk through video of other areas on Harvard’s campus. I am excited to expose my 17 year old senior daughter to the Harvard life this weekend coming up even if she doesn’t want or qualify to apply. I want her to see how hard work pays off.
Claire Fridkin You’re absolutely right! It looks good I wouldn’t care too much about the rooms and the common room is nice, it’s that shower floor that got me like “what the f?!&*” Lol
This comment sounds like you were called into an office and given a script to save Harvard’s reputation hah
Nah, just tired of dealing with everyone's crap in the comment section.
I expected luxury from Harvard.. These rooms are okay. Very tiny.
But the common room is huge. They could easily have bigger rooms and still have a decent common room, it’s only for 4 people
Are you sure? In my dorm there are 3 or 4 times less space and the shower is public for all the 150 people living in my dorm.
Trust me the space you have is a freaking LOT.
+and... someone cleans their bathrooms? there we have to do everything ourselves, buy fridges, buy tables etc also the beds are usu terrible and we have to buy the.
M
i mean seriously you are in the lap of luxury
I really like how big the common room is even though the bedrooms are tiny
umm wtf? can harvard not afford better looking dorms with its $1919372822 tuition and fees?
Amanda Gabriela what you talking about it’s huge and mostly dorm rooms are sooo small
@@joelynnfranken3844 its a dorm shared with 4 people... That's not huge at all...
You seem really funny and chill, would love to see more videos!
do a "how to get into Harvard" video. Thanks :)
Melony2 haha that makes sense
Tip one: be smart
PleaseExcuseMyHonesty I'd rather die
The most important thing is to know that going to Harvard shouldn't be your goal. Get into the best university for yourself; if you're not cut out for Harvard you will crash and burn. Just be realistic, and don't obsess over the "name brand" aspect of Harvard.
Watch rick and morty
maybe you can vlog your day cuz there aren't a lot of harvard vlogers
but this is one of the best harvard room tours i've seen ( there aren't alot )
So cool
finally somebody actually listens to noname
So you guys are expecting a mansion? It’s a dorm
no
-me :)
I applied to Harvard Early Action with a 1200 on my SAT.
I won’t be seeing any dank showers any time soon.
P Ed harvard doesn’t have early decision
What do you mean Harvard doesn’t have Early Action? I just spent $75 on November 1st to apply! It’s even on the website: college.harvard.edu/admissions/apply/application-timeline/restrictive-early-action
Derod Mcelrath I know Harvard doesn’t weigh it’s decisions solely on SAT scores; however, it could be a dealbreaker. I applied under the Restrictive Early Action deadline in spite of my poor grades (3.9 Weighted) and SAT score (1200). I plan to concentrate in Theater, Dance, and Media, and my extracurriculars and achievements (3 international) are stellar reflections of my passion for this field.
Derod Mcelrath I applied to an Ivy early decision on Nov 1! Do your research haha
Apurva Same here!
I just found you and I am so glad I did! you are one of the funniest and most down to earth CZcamsrs i have ever watched!! keep making videos claire!
It’s super great to see... all these pedestrians. 😂
GORL I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW THIS VIDEO CAME INTO MY RECOMMENDED BUT AS SOON AS I HEARD THE SONG I WAS LIKE I WANT TO BE THIS PERSONS FRIEND
Hey Claire... Seriously you get my respect more after showing your dorm! Love your authenticity 😉
Gurl, this was a great video. You Go Glenn Coco.
I mean, the rooms are nicer than the cinder block cells that are at any other university
Lmao don't know why I clicked, there's no chanceeee that I would get in 😂
It's_ Nia SAME😂 I’m struggling with a 3.2
love how this was a super chill room tour!
Honostly out of all the dorms ive seen this is HUGE and AMAZING
the small space shows that the school has been there for hundreds of years
*we love a smart queen*
I absolutely LOVE your dorm!!! More Harvard vids soon please!!
All I’m seeing in the comment section is I expected more luxury, that is luxury typical dorms is one small bedroom with 3 beds and a public shower
Finally i've found a video giving a tour of the rooms at harvard
Your music choice is great. I'm a fan of yours now.
I really like this. It’s small, but it seems comfy and cosy
OMG I WAS JUST LISTENING TO THE SONG IN THE INTRO! you have a bomb music taste
When it said harvard 2021. But it is actually 2021, this was 3 years ago btw.
I think it's super cute and cozy
I cried when I heard that noname. I love you
The music at the beginning made me REALLY ANXIOUS
In terms of the layout of the rooms, Harvard seems to be keeping in theme with it's age - very similar to Oxford and Cambridge uni here in the UK. Known to be some of the more 'prestigious' universities, but very old worldy rooms. Although in saying that, I don't think there are any universities with shared rooms like yours in the UK on campus, unless you just shared a house with friends. Our halls - onsite campus rooms - are just flats made up of 8-12 students with an ensuite room each and a shared kitchen/social area. That's the generic idea anyway but they do differ with studio flats and shared bathroom flats etc. Not really my thing I must admit, but it makes sense to keep in theme with the age of the buildings etc.
Why are so many people complaining about the dorm? It's massive! Not to mention it's gorgeous
bro ur legit so funny without trying that i had to subscribe. congrats on being a student at harvard :D
Wooo 2021!
Cool Claire! Seem it's really a cozy room
your dorm is so cool!
Fuck those dorms look bad.
Wtffff the shower though 😫😫😫
Dang, I expected them to be like amazingly big and so luxury.
I was kinda dissapointed. But, you seem to like it so that's all that matters.
idk if it’s just me cause i used to have a room that was like 8-8 but those rooms are not that small! and a big great room, WOW!
Wow was expecting more from Harvard but it's great!
My favorite song. Crappy rooms
Actually for everyone complaining this looks pretty nice. The freshman dorms have a living room with a bed room! At Fredonia it's more like a hall with bedroom and there is a living room but it's the same size of the bedrooms with the same ugly carpet and concrete walls.
Ayeee a chicago girl!! I saw that cta train map👀
Chloe Phoenix ayeeee chicago squadddd
Aleena Moore ayy
Wow so cool! It looks awesome!
you have impeccable music taste (:
This looks so cool😂✨
Im 54 now i went there my wife did and now are kids do too we love it !
Nice video Claire Fridkin. The Noise coming from the intersection (Mass Ave and Church St.) would be unbearable.
At Harvard's cost of attendance section, Fees, and Board are 3959 and 6360 (respectively). What each number really cover?
THIS MUSIC I LOVE IT
OMG NONAME IN THE INTRO
very good video, thank you... I think it will help students with their decisions when they are choosing their college
Got a like just for the good song choice in the intro. NoName love it
It’s nearly 3am and all I’m thinking about is Harvard right now.
While I know Harvard is one of the best universities in the world, that dorm kinda made me depressed. Many dorms I’ve seen are very small considering they’re housing at least two students who are calling it their home throughout the school year, but at least most dorms I’ve seen doesn’t force the students to basically sleep on each other’s laps in a more or less claustrophobia triggering bedroom. The common room looked nice though. I know the buildings are old, but seriously, with the tuition fee they charge at Harvard one would think they’d be able to renovate the dorms a tad bit more 😳 Even my high school dorm room (boarding school) at a school out in the Swedish countryside was more homey and spacious and that dorm was a bit like a college suite with single or double bedroom (I had single) and shared bathroom and kitchen area with the other rooms of the suite.
TBH, a dorm like this would throw me off and have me look for an off campus option if being a Harvard student, and having that feeling about something is pretty sad when it’s a top university and all.
If I had the chance to study at a college in USA I’d probably want to go to UCLA, MIT or BU
Ahaa this was cute, you should do more. Do vlogs about college life
Omg that’s my dream school ❤️❤️❤️
uses words “dank” and “boi” - gets into Harvard
Sophia Liwanag your point...?
I'm not ashamed! Lol
Lmao boi, I got into Stanford and it’s dank af.
Ah🌚
Well actually, this comment displays your unintelligence, as dank means 'unpleasently damp/cold', therefore her use of that word to describe the shower was in fact correct.
Love your channel.
Just wanna add... ONE DAY! I WON'T GIVE UP 💪
This is so cool I’m comparing this to Cardiff uni in wales this is so pretty and nice
Omg just wow
I believe there is an elective available on Bathroom Cleaning, its' Joys and Pitfalls 101. Then the four of you can take turns cleaning the bathroom rather than waiting for the staff to clean it the first Monday after any Harvard win of the Harvard-Yale football game.
Peep Noname in the beginning 💜
Wh6 dont you have all the beds in the commons and put the desks in th other area
wow...thanks💜
As soon as I heard the song play I pressed the like button.
William Peace University seems to have better dorms in my opinion. They have a huge common room if you want to live in a quad and you get a kitchen also. You can also pick a double or a single room! single rooms are only around $300 more per semester
YESS I love this so much I want to go to Harvard in the future and this is tolerable if I AM IN HARVARD
After school routine!!!
when I was younger I used to sleep on a top bunk. I fell of and didn't even feel it until I woke on the floor.
Right now I'm 9 years old and I've kinda planned the next 14-16 years of my life ( up to 25 ). A part of it was to go to Harvard. Just wanted to see the dorms.
i would expect so much more from a school who’s tuition is insane!!
Harvard students go there for the education, not for the dorms. I understand why you'd feel like it should be better, but honestly it doesn't matter in the long run. Harvard buildings are very old, and Boston is a very busy area so they probably don't have the time or space to expand their campus.
what was your high school GPA? SAT score? ACT??? how many AP classes? SAT subject tests? soc security number??
Why you want to know her social security number, creep?
You’re living my dreams
you seem very kind
This is my dream school💘
Great video :). Could you do a video about how to get in to Harvard for foreign applicants. That would mean a lot to me
wish I would of had this kind of set up when I wa sin college. Had the regular room 2 beds two dressers and desks shared bath by the entire floor so maybe 15 only 2 showers about 5 bathroom stalls and about 5 sinks. we had a study room which nobody ever used.
I believe my sister used to live in Straus! She's a Senior at Harvard and now lives in Leverett.
just few years, and I am going to be there in harvard medical school.
I'm a college vlogger too love your channel just subbed!
I peep the CTA train poster :))
Is there a choice of standard? Can you get a better room if you pay more? A single room if you prefer? How does it work with mature students?
This might sound strange but the hall where there’s all the desks can’t you just turn that into the bedrooms and put the desks inside the roooms or no
I WANT MORE VIDEOS!
today at church they said ill go to Harvard im just a child now and im atually excited cuase this school looks fun
Im hoping to get into harvard soon omg
Thanks a lot .
Dang video quality is niiiccceee
You must be one smart cookie its so hard to get into that school
Okay so my family toured Harvard this past summer and I swear on my life we parked right outside your room
Thanks.. I'm not that smart to go to collage. But I was always curious to know what it really looked like. Plus I don't trust tv shows or movies they probably make it look better than what it really is. So thanks
If I were you, I would split the common room into 2 bedrooms using bookcases and dressers as a faux divider. That way everyone has a semi-private bedroom.
For everyone that's wondering why harvard has so tiny and "ugly" rooms, it's because it's super old, as you may already know, harvard has more than 100 years existing, they can't change the infrastructure if their dorms. So they have to accomodate to those tiny rooms.
What if you moved all the beds into the commons? Is that something you can do?
Congratulation 🎊
I went to Harvard
Elementary..
Jorge Olvera LMFAOOOOOOOOOO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
