<p>Hey guys, I wanted to know if anyone knows where the bigger dorms are in Harvard(which hall). No offense, but the ones I have seen online so far are kinda crappy. Please post a link
Thanks</p>
<p>Ooh… I wanna see the replies for this one. It’ll be a good observation in online bashing.</p>
<p>Aznballa - I’m not sure why you care about which dorm has the biggest rooms. You will have absolutely no say in the matter. There are no housing requests.</p>
<p>My D absolutely LOVES her dorm, its location, the room/suite, the entry, roommates and proctor. Using the photos online, that feeling never would have crossed her mind.</p>
<p>Anyhow, if the dorm photos don’t meet your expectations then simply don’t apply to Harvard. There are others for whom this will not matter.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>If your main concern is dorm room size, look elsewhere. You may get lucky with a spacious room (yes, the housing for freshman is totally random-selected), or you may get a tiny room,only big enough for a bed, and a desk. (Think 8 x10’.) and that bed could be bunks.</p>
<p>Haha, thats good advice. My dad said that if you are concerned with dorm rooms, then you dont deserve to go there, but I just didnt think I could live in an 8 by 10 room for four years.</p>
<p>My daughter’s freshman room couldn’t fit a desk - only a bunk bed!</p>
<p>^ was she part of a suite?</p>

<p>check this out. It has info and pictures of the freshman dorms</p>
<p>My son lived in Matthews his freshman year and loved it. He had 1 really great roommate and one not so great. There were 3 boys in the room. 1 single and 1 double.</p>
<p>Smoda: Yes, a small suite. The bedrooms were all that size; the desks had to be kept in the common room.</p>

<p>Your freshman room assignment is just for a single year. After that, you’re placed in one of 12 upperclass houses, which are generally pretty spacious and nice.</p>
<p>Twinmom - then that sound somewhat like that my daughter is in. She is a suite with two bedrooms and a living area. Her suite then connects by a private hall to a second suite of 4 and they all share one common bathroom. In D’s suite, only the beds and dressers fit in the “bedrooms” and the desks are in the common area. On of the bedrooms was smaller than the other and would only fit bunked beds while the other was large enough to not. The girls, creatively and to be fair to each other, are all bunked the larger bedroom (2 sets bunk beds) and they made the smaller bedroom a walk in closet/changing room. To date, it has worked out well.</p>
