<p>Lottery numbers are out although assignments will come out on monday. I am 165 and they said that 150 and above has a really low chance of getting housing.</p>
<p>Yes!!! I got number 21. I think this is the first time I haven't gotten f'ed over this entire college admission process :)</p>
<p>how did you guys find out?</p>
<p>call housing and ask</p>
<p>dude WHAT THE ****? the program has 650 people and they said they could hosue 50% of the students... how do 150 and above have a low chance at housing? </p>
<p>THIS MAKES ME SO ANGRY
and im abroad and have no way of knowing my lottery number.

<p>Thanks CAL Housing! 500 FPF students are now out there scrambling for housing because CAL Housing urged FPF students to take the "wait & see" approach and not get other housing until after mid- July because it would offer dorm space to 50% of the FPFers. 150 out of 650 means you had less than a 1 in 4 shot of getting a dorm space. Bad odds that should have been revealed when college decisions were being made not in mid-July when you're locked into CAL.</p>
<p>Don't worry you guys aren't missing out. I was #21 on the waitlist and I thought I would get something good, but I got Bowles. Bowles.</p>
<p>Continuing Students just got emails asking if we'd like to cancel our dorms without incurring fees (waive penalty), for the first 75 students who agree. I know some friends that are going to do it since they were able to find housing, but the purpose of the e-mail is to help you guys get housing, so they are trying!</p>
<p>gdalepolo, Bowles is a great place to live. I lived in Bowles last year. I made a conscious decision to live in Hillside next year when I could have chose to go back to Bowles. I am starting to regret my decision...</p>
<p>Bowles is a very, very social place and given the fact that everyone minus the six RAs and the 15/16 mentors is a freshman makes the experience very unique.</p>
<p>Bowles has the lowest population of any dorm hall. There are about 199 beds in Bowles. (Each unit dorm hall has 240, Stern has 300/+, don't have numbers for Foothill). Bowles also gets you the most square feet per dollar of any dorming option.</p>
<p>actually i learned that they assigned the same lottery number to multiple people so i dont think they only housed 150 of us.</p>
<p>did anyone else get an offer on friday?</p>
<p>I'm hoping I get an email monday <prays to="" god=""></prays></p>
<p>so what are you guys going to do?
i didnt get housing either
and my lottery number is way out of range. 347</p>
