For people that go to Uf...(help with housing)

<p>Oh Thanks. I guess Freshmen get second pick then and Transfers get last pick. Sucks :confused: I really want Murphee.</p>

<p>The list I posted is what is currently left for Freshmen to pick from. I donā€™t think more rooms are released except for when someone decides to not go to UF and cancels their housing. Maybe they save some for transfers? Donā€™t know how the numbers work to get everyone a room. According to what I can see there are only triples left in Murphree itself. I can only see whatā€™s left for each hall for the females.</p>

<p>@ly7769 - UF only guarantees you housing if you have a housing contract. Not all 6,000 freshman are guaranteed housing. But if you have a pick date of 4/9 and a housing contract then you are. Some have to take the ā€œlate application triplesā€, some are put on a waiting list and some will have to find off campus housing. Just be happy you applied early and are one of the lucky ones. :)</p>

<p>I do think all the vacancies are posted at once, the earliest applications have the best choices and then each day the next group picks from whats left. That is how I was told it works anyway.</p>

<p>Thanks everyone! Does anyone know if people are picking dorms tomorrow? If you look here it has NA/NM next to April 4thā€¦not sure why that date is blocked outā€¦
Just trying to see what my chances of getting Springs are if thereā€™s only 25 spots left. </p>

<p>Thanks for the info. Btw these are the spots available for Fall right? Because Iā€™ll be staying on campus only for Summer B so hopefully itā€™s emptier? ::fingers crossed::</p>

<p>Yeah this is fall. I think they randomly pick your summer dorm based on your preferences.</p>

<p>I am getting a bit anxious now. My sonā€™s date to pick a room is 4/11/11, which is the last date of supposedly early registration. By seeing the numbers posted yesterday, it seems like there wonā€™t be any more rooms left. Can someone who has recently picked their room update those available spots number. We have one more week - Yikes!</p>

<p>Someone in the facebook group posted this, the first # is guys and the second is girls. </p>

<p>Thank you! He was hoping for Broward. Hopefully, there will be one space opened next Wednesday. It doesnā€™t seem like there will be though.</p>

<p>Yeah,Iā€™m sure there will be because Broward has a lot of space! He could try to find a roommate with an earlier date. My date is tomorrow and Iā€™m trying to get springs, so Iā€™m hoping it wonā€™t fill up.</p>

<p>Check out some of the discussions hereā€¦ Alot of current UF students have commented on questions similar to yours</p>

<p>Any updates on number of slots available in each area? I pick on 4/11 so I want to get an idea of what may be left.</p>

<p>@NameNotTaken - Here is the update I just took off the site. The numbers move around though. For instance, a few days ago, there were no Male spaces left in Jennings and now there are 10 as people change their minds and move around. Looks like Broward is real popular with the guys (my son included). :slight_smile: Good luck!</p>

<p>Thank you! Would love another update Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. My sonā€™s date to pick is 4/11.</p>

<p>I think Iā€™ll just start a new thread and update from there? It would probably be easier for people to findā€¦</p>

<p>Could anyone tell me how they feel about the communal bathrooms and kitchens? Iā€™m really worried about that part of the dorm life especially since my roommate and I probably will not get Lakeside since her date is earlier than mine and itā€™s the 24th.</p>
