<p>When they send this email out next tuesday, what exactly do they tell us... i.e. are we in a resident hall, suite, or plaza and how many roomates do we have...?</p>
<p>it would be cool if they could/do already tell us the roomates we get</p>
<p>you won't find out roommates until august.
i'm not sure what you DO find out next week... but it won't be your roommates xD</p>
<p>you'll find out the type of room (which will be a triple) and the location. that is all.</p>
<p>anybody know our chances of getting a plaza?</p>
<p>i know it's like 90% guaranteed you'll get a triple...but chances of a plaza versus a hall???</p>
<p>if you requested a plaza as your first choice then pretty good odds. they arent short on plazas by any means.</p>
<p>yah...
plazas: de neve, sunset, rieber vista, rieber terrace, hedrick summit.
halls: dykstra, rieber, hedrick. (sproul is closed)</p>
<p>so most likely you'll get a plaza :)</p>
<p>and there is a small (but significant) chance you'll be in a suite, as hitch will be 75% freshmen and saxon a similar number</p>

<p>The housing service coordinator said ~1%.</p>
<p>Hitch alone will have 400 people, of which 75% are freshmen, so we alone have 300 here. It will be a small percentage, but more than last year.</p>
<p>after we find out what type of housing we are getting, are we gonna be able to choose our meal plans?</p>
<p>how does it work with them knowing the housing assignments but not roomates?</p>
<p>do they know the roomates but just aren't telling until august or do they put everyone in a building and match from there?</p>
<p>just curious ;)</p>
<p>i wish we could request buildings and not just room types...i want de neve!!!!1111111</p>
<p>you CAN request buildings...
as a second year =P</p>
<p>they probably won't have assigned specific rooms by may anyway. because it takes for friggin ever.
...we didn't find out roommates and rooms til about the last week of august? maybe the third week. but they kept pushing it back >.<</p>
<p>do the housing costs differ for residential halls, plazas, and suites? i signed up for residential hall, is that the cheapest place you can get?</p>
