<p>Boulder is sending out reminders to apply for housing and I need some help! What are some of the best dorms to apply for? What's the biggest party dorm - Ferrand, right? Is it really hard to get a dorm w/ bath as a freshman? Any personal preferences/experiences? Is Will Vill really as bad as people say? If you could have your choice, where would you live and why?</p>
<p>Thanks for any advice/information :)</p>
<p>My son lived in Baker Hall his freshman year but I think that is being renovated this year. Most students want to live around Farrand Field, so any of the dorms around there are good. Sewell also supposed to be good but a little farther away from some parts of the campus. As far as Will Ville is concerned, I know someone who lives there now, and I think he likes it. But what gets to be annoying is having to take the bus to and from there to campus. I think it is pretty impossible to get a private bath with a room as a freshman. Most of the dorms come with community bathrooms. If you do wait too long you will almost certainly get put in Will Ville.</p>
