Dorms/housing, which ones are the best?!

<p>I don't know which hall I'm going to. I want to wait till orientation so they can explain these halls better. On the website it doesn't explain them.</p>

<p>I think that is ture Arian19 because on bobcat day that's what a UCM student told me.</p>

<p>Won't the rooms be filled up if you wait too long though?</p>

<p>Arian19, it depends on when they drop out. One of my D's roomates asked to transfer to another dorm early this semester and the room became a double. We were told if she had asked before the start of 2nd semester we would have been charged the double rate.
Azn, don't worry freshman are guaranteed housing they will make doubles into triples if necessary.</p>

<p>I've heard that if ur roommate leaves (drops out) that u get the whole room to ur self. And they wont replace ur roommate. IS that true?</p>

<p>YESSS, I tried to get mine to drop since the first week of Fall =/ hahaa jk</p>

<p>So..Which Hall is best for studying? Is Kings Hall any good?</p>

<p>I gave kings hall a 7, looking back its probably an 8.5. It has a good location on campus. All the halls are about equal with respect to studying, its pretty dependent upon who else is in the suite. This year, I can tell you from first hand experience that Kings Hall is pretty quite (as opposed to some other halls..), but it all realness (yes I just made that word up) you're going to be doing most of your studing in the library or COB.</p>

<p>Thanks...
So Valley > Sierra right? How do you like the NEW dorms?</p>

<p>Wow, i choose Mariposa Hall and i was confirmed an all, and i already started to talk with my roommate. And all of a sudden a (few days ago) i was moved to Tuolumne Hall, so i guess you are not allowed to choose your own room yourself. Did this happen to anyone else too?</p>

<p>If you are a freshman, Arian, then you will more than likely be forced to live in the dorm style (Sierra or Mariposa) buildings.</p>

<p>Thats what happened to my class last year.</p>
