Are there any preferred choices for the freshman dorms in U of Chicago? Also heard that there is a new set of dorms set to open in 2016? Is that on track? Any info is much appreciated. Thanks.
North Campus Dormitory on schedule for Fall 2016 (start of school year) open.

Which dorm to choose is a rich subject. One thing is for certain, UChicago fills dorms on a first come, first serve basis, which gives those who commit early the widest choice.
My own son committed really late and he got I-House, which will continue to house undergraduates in 2016. He ended up liking it and making many good friends. He’s now a third year and in an apartment.
All dorms are freshman dorms. Max P, South, BJ, and Snitchcock fill up the fastest.
Thanks for the info.
@HydeSnark does someone who commits after RD decisions come out have any shot at getting in south, max p, or BJ?
@ampoampo yes
