Hope its not too weird to ask

<p>Do you guys at CMU get dorms with private bathroom in it?</p>

<p>No, unless you are in a prime quad or triple in Mudge, as a freshman you will not have your own bathroom. Some other places have suite style bathrooms where you share one bathroom with the people who live next to you.</p>

<p>ok, so where do people get showers?</p>

<p>in the communal floor bathroom. :)</p>

<p>communal floor bathroom? Is that like a huge bathroom where several people take the shower at the same time? Sorry I’ve never been to a college dorm and have no siblings to tell me the story and just wonder about this kind of stuff</p>

<p>Yeah, you’ve got the idea. There are probably about 40 or 50 people to a floor and there one room full of toilets and showers for each gender. The showers are in stalls and so are the toilets, so it’s still private for the most part.</p>

<p>Hi, garage12,</p>

<p>No need to worry. The “communal showers” are actually not as bad as you think. There are always shower stalls for privacy but I would suggest bringing a pair of flip flops or some kind of footwear to wear into the bathroom. </p>

<p>Where I lived freshman year, we had 4 shower stalls for about 30 students and really, it was not a problem.</p>

<p>The mudge doubles have private bathrooms.</p>

<p>I also heard they are opening up the shirley apartments and london terrace for freshman. These have private bathrooms.</p>
