Do people usually get one of their top 3 dorm preferences?

<p>Has anyone gotten their 4th or 5th dorm preference? Does the $50 determine your place in line for dorm preferences? My roommate and I both submitted ours in November. I submitted the enrollment deposit in January, and my roommate submitted it in March. As incoming freshmen, do you think we have a chance at getting Duren or San Jac?</p>

<p>Depends when you accept your housing contract.</p>

<p>For example, current UT students already have their assignments and are being reassigned according to their preferences.</p>

<p>(Basically freshmen get last picks. Get ready for a lot of that. Freshmen get last pick with classes too, and football seating, and parking…)</p>
