Dorms?

<p>is poly canyon for freshman? or is that the sophomore independent living program thing? i'm assuming tthat those will be for sophomores because theyare allowing freshman into cerro vista.</p>

<p>poly canyon would be nice soph. year though! :)</p>

<p>poly canyon will be for sophomores. but we will be the second ones to live in them! verrrrrrrrrrrry nice! :)</p>

<p>oh really?! hmm the tour i had said it was for freshmen, but that's cool! good to know!</p>

<p>Yep! Here's what the website says:</p>

<p>"Initially, current freshman students (2007/2008) apply through a lottery process for the 2008/2009 Academic year. The Poly Canyon Village apartment complex is programmatically designed for 2nd year student housing geared toward the Sophomore Success Program."</p>

<p>Welcome</a> Poly Canyon Village if you'd like to check it out for more info. :)</p>

<p>Here's the definite situation with housing (I e-mailed a rep. recently). The cerro vista apartments will be available to freshman...but honestly who wants to miss out on the excitement of dorm life. Yea they are small, yea you share a bathroom, but you also make incredible bonds with so many people. We have three more years to have our own place. I say go dorms.</p>

<p>jackht27,</p>

<p>i'm sorry, but i guess i gave you some wrong information about the loft policy at Cal Poly. I was on their website today and found this.. </p>

<p>Loft Policy</p>

<p>Due to safety concerns, only furniture provided by Cal Poly University Housing, designed specially for the purpose of lofting, can be lofted. Use of risers, blocks, bricks, etc., are NOT ALLOWED in the residence halls.
Free-standing storage units taller than 48" are NOT ALLOWED in the residence halls.
Due to space constraints in residence hall rooms, it is recommended that couches, large stereo speakers, personal furniture, etc., be left at home.</p>

<p>ah, that's helpful.
thanks for clarifying. i think that is going to save so much more space...</p>

<p>i also read that there's about 10 in. space under the bed so i guess you could fit some storage bins under there. i plan on just stacking up plastic storage shelves in the closet or something like that. i think it'll be alright. luckily for me, i've got a boyfriend with a house down there so i can keep my stuff at his place if i run out of room :P</p>

<p>hahaa yeah for sure.
hm well the 10 in. thing sounds cool. that's pretty nifty.</p>

<p>and yeah i will probably do the same in my closet thing too.</p>

<p>I can't wait to go to The Container Store later on!!!!! If you've never heard of it, IT'S AMAZING!!!! </p>

<p>I'm so excited for tomorrow! :)</p>

<p>What is the container store? I've never heard of it.</p>

<p>It's this store in San Rafael (and many other places I'm sure) that sells nothing but different types of amazing containers for optimal storage. </p>

<p><a href="http://www.containerstore.com/college/index.jhtml;jsessionid=4KDQF0YTGWORDQFIAILCM5GAVABBOJVC%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.containerstore.com/college/index.jhtml;jsessionid=4KDQF0YTGWORDQFIAILCM5GAVABBOJVC&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>There's the "College" section of it. It's great! Check it out sometime! :)</p>

<p>LOL</p>

<p>that's the funniest store i have ever heard of.
it's cool though!</p>

<p>i will have to make the trip out to san rafael. probably the most beautiful place ever anyway... besides san luis of course. aha</p>

<p>I used to live in San Rafael! Now I live in Petaluma. But in a few months I will live in Bodega Bay! And then San Luis Obispo! Holy smokes. Covering a lot of Bay Area ground! :)</p>

<p>But definitely check it out whenever you get the chance. It's literally right next to REI right off the highway.</p>
