<p>Blake Hall is probably the best dorm on campus according to most people and in my opinion. It's more modern than any other and the lobby has a plasma (I think) TV.</p>
<p>Evangeline is girls only now, becoming co-ed in fall 09, and I've never been in there, but the reputation of it is middle of the road.</p>
<p>Blake Hall's pretty good. I think half of it though is for ag majors only. Evangeline will be the dorm for the basic sciences next yr. Evangeline is pretty spacious.</p>
<p>is freshman allowed to have a car at college?
So curious</p>
<p>Yes, freshmen can have cars. Parking sucks, but Baton Rouge's public transit sucks also.</p>
<p>So I will be going to the June 18th orientation!</p>
<p>I'm trying to get a hotel room at the Cook hotel. Is anyone else going to this session?</p>
<p>cool, if i got a orientation email, does that mean i got accepted? just curious lol.
btw, for parking, freshman can get a parking space then?</p>
<p>Probably. I would think it's odd for to invite you to orientation and then reject you. </p>
<p>Yeah, they don't limit the parking tags given out. I think for this last year, when we scheduled classes it asked us if we wanted a parking tag. They'll probably go over it during orientation.</p>
<p>Like I said though, parking sucks. If you leave campus on the weekdays and come back somewhat late at night, you'll probably end up with a parking space that's 5-10 minute walk from your dorm. Though recently, I've been getting lucky and there's a few "hidden" parking lots that many people don't know you can park there and so those will tend to be open as well.</p>
<p>So what now? What will our next step be?</p>
<p>well, you can start doing your fasfa to see what kind of aid you'll receive.</p>
<p>So I filled out my FASFA and submitted it, what do I do now?</p>
<p>My name is Lauren and I will be a freshman in the LSU honors college in the fall majoring in Mass Comm. I have put Laville down as my first choice, but haven't seen the inside. Anybody have any info??</p>
<p>I'm a mass comm Freshman now living in Laville...</p>
<p>It's not the best dorm around, the lobby is quite bland. The rooms are a good size, each room has a sink. Bathrooms are usually fairly clean. Quite a lot of partying does go on here, but there's not a lot of noise usually. Fire alarm goes off way too often. Air conditioning is good. Back door is pretty much a smoker's paradise.</p>
<p>The whole "honors college" feel is completely exaggerated. Other than the fact the kids are a bit more dedicated to their studies, there really is no difference than other dorms on campus.</p>
<p>Overall I give it a C+.</p>
<p>what is the best dorm for an incoming freshman?</p>
<p>what do you think of the hergert residentail college for freshman?</p>
<p>my son will attend in fall 09.</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>zman- wait for an e-mail confirmation from lsu. they'll send you directions then.</p>
<p>dse1046783- i think the best dorms for freshman are the residential halls. blake (ag college) and the business/engineering dorms are the nicest. Evangeline (basic sciences) are pretty nice as well. </p>
<p>Personally, i find hergert to be way too small. it seems cramped. however, many people have overlooked it's small size b/c of the activities that the dorm sponsors.</p>
<p>Tiger-</p>
<p>When do you think I'll get that e-mail?</p>
<p>Disregard the above post, I got my confirmation e-mail today. So do I just wait for a letter or what is my next step? Thanks to all who have helped me, you have made being a Tiger even more amazing.</p>

<p>I can't wait until August!!!!!
I'm ready to start college already, lol. Who's with me?
:)</p>
<p>All the way, LSU is going to be awesome.</p>
<p>zman, plan on living on-campus or off-campus? If on-campus, then you might be able to go ahead and apply for housing. If off-campus, you might start browsing for apartments for the fall.</p>
<p>zman- they send out award letters in april. award letters contain any aid or scholarships you might receive through LSU. </p>
<p>I can't wait for next August!</p>
