<p>Is there any benefit to sending the admissions deposit for Fall '07 NOW to ensure good housing choices ?? Or can it really wait until the May 1st deadline?</p>
<p>I'd say the earlier the better.</p>
<p>We sent in ours last year in April and had no problem. Just make sure you send the housing deposit in by the deadline to get the housing guarantee. Pitt said you are guaranteed three years on campus, but only if you meet the deadline. You also have to meet the deadline each year after that. We also had no problem getting honors housing, although other people did. I'm not sure how all the various specialized housing options work; there seemed to be openings in SPACE even in June, but the honors filled up pretty quickly.</p>
