2 questions about Penn

<p>I just got accepted to the college and i have 2 questions:</p>

<li><p>I know we dont find out about housing until later, but can we get singles as freshman and how do we choose housing?</p></li>
<li><p>How far can we let are gpa stray (down) from what we currently have? </p></li>
</ol>

<p>thanks</p>

<ol>
<li><p>you can have singles as freshmen. they'll send you housing info in april and i guess you'll have to fill out a form or something.</p></li>
<li><p>0.5-1.0? idk = /</p></li>
</ol>

<p>You can get a single if you get lucky in the housing lottery, but the ones I've seen are pretty tiny.</p>

<p>I wouldn't worry bout senior grades as long as you don't totally slack off and wind up with Cs & Ds.</p>

<p>There are actually some large singles in Hill. Like..the same size as/larger than double rooms. I've heard that if you really want a single, you should put Hill as your first choice.</p>

<p>is the hill part of the quad</p>

<p>is a B-/C+ in AP physics with the rest of my grades As enough to revoke my admission?</p>

<p>No, nineuhman.</p>

<p>The quad is Fisher, Riepe, and Ware. The quad (esp Fisher) has many singles (which are pretty nicely sized) with freshmen residents.</p>

<p>Ware has nice double rooms, especially on butcher 4. The baby quad has pretty large singles with sinks in them. they're pretty spacious and some even have walk in closets AND sinks. Those are jackpottsss.</p>

<p>Wait, the baby quad? So is this still Ware that has walk-in closets and sinks?</p>

<p>How many people share a bathroom?</p>

<p>My son has a single in the quad and it is tiny. You can barely walk between the bed and the closet. He likes it anyway, but it is seriously small. I have heard there are much bigger singles.</p>

<p>How small is small (feet by feet)?</p>

<p>Remember that almost none of the rooms in the quad are the same, even within houses and buildings and floors, so you really never know what you are going to get.</p>

<p>The baby quad has some singles that are pretty large, and those are the ones with the sinks and the closets. The ones that I know of in Ware are just open closets and some just have wardrobes. The open closets really stink cuz it basically looks like a hole in the wall with a pole going across...(meiosis, but w/e) Having a sink in your room makes it sooo convenient, 'cause if you think about it, you spend a lot of time in front of the sink, regardless of gender, and having to walk to the bathrooom just to use the sink when there's other people in there doing their business is...not that great...and the rooms with the sinks are usually large, so if you have a sink in ur roomm, it's a keeper. don't complain about the size. Some rooms have carpeting and some are just tiles, and the rooms with tiles get sooo incredibly disgusting.</p>

<p>Ew. No wood floors?
Are the dorms really that gross?</p>

<p>whats penn's rivalry school</p>

<p>whats penns rivalry</p>

<p>Princeton /**/</p>

<p>or so we like to think</p>

<p>If you look at the Penn site where it lists traditions, it does outline that the Penn-Princeton sports rivalry is pretty fierce. Columbia wants us bad though.</p>
