Welcome to EF New York

Tarrytown Campus!

• Located in beautiful Tarrytown, 15 minutes by foot to town
• Population is around 11,500 people
• Approximately 45 minute train ride to Manhattan

Jocelyn Chung: Groups and Juniors Coordinator

Jocelyn manages the Activity Action Leader (AALs) team and the Junior Coordinator (JCs) Team. She is available to assist with airport transfers, group transfers, activity planning, and all things related to groups and juniors!

Junior Coordinators

Junior Coordinators are designated staff available to serve our Junior students. Junior Coordinators are responsible for leading Juniors Orientation, chaperoning off campus trips (such as Manhattan and sports games),

• rganizing on campus activities, accompanying

Juniors to doctors visits, conducting bed checks, and much more. JCs live on campus, and operate on a rotating schedule, which includes being “on duty” in the late evening and early morning hours. We hope that throughout their stay, our Juniors feel comfortable to reach out to our JCs for any questions, concerns, or just to hang out.

Activity Action Leaders are the primary on-site contact for group leaders. They are the chaperones for trips and activities, and can provide guidance in the face of housing, administrative, and/or academic issues. AALs greet our groups at the airport and accompany them back to campus (applicable

• nly to groups that have booked a Group

Transfer through EF). Overseeing and taking care of the students remain the responsibility of the group leader; however, the AAL can be of assistance when

• needed. We ask Group Leaders to be respectful
• f our AALs’ time.

EF New York School Policies

The safety and security of our youngest students is always a high priority at EF New York. The policies and procedures reviewed here have been created with this goal in mind. We ask students to uphold these policies at all times. There are no exceptions!

Residence Hall Curfew

• Residence Life will place students

under the age of 18 in Lugari Hall, in a “minor” designated room, when possible.

• Each student must sign in to the

residence hall nightly prior to

• fficial curfew time.
• Curfew for students under the age
• f 18 years old is 23:00 Sunday-

Thursday, and 24:00 on Friday and Saturday.

• JUNIOR curfew applies to all

students booked as a JU/JI course, and is set at 22:00 every night.

Sign In and Bed Checks

• Students under 18 must sign in with

the security officer at the entrance to their building prior to curfew.

• Students who are not signed in will be

subject to bed checks, which are conducted nightly by our Residence Advisors or Junior Coordinators.

• Students who violate the curfew, or
• ther campus policies, will be subject

to disciplinary action, which includes disciplinary fines, community service hours, and letters to parents.

• Repeat curfew offenders may be sent

home.

Waivers and EF Activities

We do not accept any form of parental consent for remaining off campus past curfew. Students under 18 may return past curfew only if they are attending a chaperoned EF Activity or Event. In this case, an EF staff member must escort the student back to their residence when the activity or event concludes past the curfew time.

Overnight Policies

We understand that some students may have family residing in the United States.

• Students may stay off campus
• vernight, only with a parent or a

relative 21+. Situations such as these will be examined on a case-by-case basis.

• Overnight Request Forms, which can

be obtained through the Residence Life Office, must be submitted at least 3 days in advance of the off campus departure.

• The parent or the relative must come to

campus to sign out the student during the 9-5 work day. The person responsible must provide proof of identification.
