<p>What are the different options of housing for freshman? What are the pros/cons of all of them? And how is housing given - is it a first come, first serve basis on when you paid your deposit? Any help is appreciated!!</p>
<p>It’s hard to talk about pros/cons since you don’t get a lot of active choice in the matter. If you’re Honors, you live in IV. If not, you choose an LLC (living learning community) based on your interests or major. You don’t get to choose which dorm you’ll be in. Don’t base your selection of LLC based on what building it was in the previous year; this changes! I think there might be limits on the size of the LLCs, in which case I think it’s based on first come first seerve, but I’m not actually positive on that.
Your roommate is based on a form you fill out that takes into account things like your musical taste and study and sleep habits.</p>
<p>Housing is assigned based on the order in which your deposit is received…thus, you are more likely to get your first choice LLC if you submit your depost early.</p>
