<p>preferably Jester and San Jacinto....</p>
<p>I want to see if Jester is really that bad cause I'm getting a little worried about everyone saying not to live there.....</p>
<p>the virtual tour will give you a 360 degree view of a room in each dorm</p>
<p>thanks...</p>
<p>but can anyone see if that picture of a Jester dorm is pretty accurate? it doesn't seem too bad to me...</p>
<p>yea i see what you mean. I stayed at Jester for two nights but my only complaints are a small bed and an even smaller desk. but the one in the virtual tour is pretty accurate. no pics though :(</p>
<p>Cool. U gonna be a freshman at ut next fall? Where r u going to stay?</p>
<p>Everyone who gets a room on campus will stay in Jester at orientation so you can get a look at the rooms then. I brought stuff in and out of my daughter's orientation room and I remember thinking that the room itself was not bad at all. Kind of a typical dorm room, with a pretty decent amount of storage. The on-line photo is true-to-life.</p>
<p>The mattress part of the beds can be pushed back a bit to make the bed more like a couch. There are big storage drawers built in under each bed; the beds don't have legs.</p>
<p>Wouldn't waiting till after orientation to make a decision be a little too late? </p>
<p>Or does paying the $50 give you priority over everyone no matter what date you choose your dorm?</p>
<p>I think that the early registration sessions are before the deadline for switching your dorm room choice.</p>
<p>yea, i'll be a freshmen by fall. so far, my first choice is Prather with Brackenridge at second but I never seen the dorms personally so all my choices are based on the virtual tour. and yes, after you pay the $50, your housing priority is set.</p>
