<p>D is going to see UVA and wants to know what is the most desirable housing for freshman? and can you find own roommate or do you fill out compatibility survey?</p>
<p>please search there are like 103948023840324 threads about this</p>

<p>You know if I readily found the info I would not have asked, but thanks anyway.</p>
<p>For housing next year I think they are allowing you to pick so I guess have your daughter pick whichever one she’s more comfortable with. You can’t go wrong with the choices. Just a word about Hereford though. It’s kinda far from a lot of places and is somewhat secluded. Also, it’s a single so it might get a bit lonely. </p>
<p>Unless she knows that she wants to room with a friend she should do a random roommate.</p>
<p>thanks, sciencenerd. when we visited D was unable to see any dorms, so we will try to see on accepted students day.</p>
<p>She definitely wants a roommate and will do random.</p>
<p>If you are given the option to pick, I recommend Old Dorms (Mccormick road dorms). They are close to classes and dining halls.</p>
<p>thanks! She will check them out.</p>
<p>Brown College is in central dorms, hurr hurr.</p>
<p>If you’re a girl, choose IRC. The IRC has great facilities, including kitchens and never-ending events. If you’re a boy who doesn’t mind “wild” behaviour in Gwathmey (since the IRC provides great facilities anyway), also do IRC.</p>
