<p>My daughter’s housing assignment is up!</p>
<p>Mine too!! She is in Warren Towers (shields) on the 12th floor (ugh!). Where is your daughter? I have been looking for floor plans to just get an idea of how many rooms are on the floor etc. and can’t find any.</p>
<p>Hello, my daughter is in West, 5th floor in Rich. I haven’t seen any floor plans, but there is a PDF that’s lists a lot of info. There is a link to it in the ask a BU student thread, I think.</p>
<p>bkcsmn99 I believe that there are 22 rooms on each floor in warren with 3 of those being singles, one being the RA room, one being a quad (well this year triples), and two being corner doubles. Thats the layout of the “normal” floors…floor five in each tower though is a little different because some faculty live there with students.</p>
<p>sorry and the 15 others being regular double rooms.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>bkcsmn99, it’s actually 25 rooms per floor.</p>
<p>Hope this helps anyone:
Warren Towers=
- Rooms in A tower facing east have a great view.
- Corner doubles are larger.
- Rooms -00 through -13 of A Tower have good views.
- Rooms -14 through -22 in C Tower have great views.
- Students in B Tower, -14 through -22 of A, and -00 through -13 of C are warned to close their curtains (these are the rooms where you look out of your window and see the next tower over).
- All -11 and -15 are corner doubles and the largest double occupancy rooms on campus.
- All -12,-14, -00, and -24 are large corner single occupancy rooms.
- All -13 are back quadruple occupancy rooms.</p>
<p>West Campus:
- All odd rooms face Nickerson field.
- All rooms ending in 04, 05, 23, and 24 have movable desks (exception of 2nd floor Sleeper).
- All rooms ending in 00, 01, 27, and 28 are singles (exception of 2nd floor Sleeper).
- Marching band practices on Nickerson field at the beginning of the year early in the morning, and can be VERY loud.
- Triples are extremely small and uncomfortable.</p>

<p>@bkcsmn99: approx 20 rooms per floors and 4 singles <- estimation off the top of my head</p>
<p>why UGH! to the 12th floor?</p>
<p>Ugh to the 12th floor…move in day. haha Also heard that the elevators don’t always work in Shields (C Tower)</p>
<p>To be honest, elevators don’t necessarily work well in any of the towers. Most of the time they did, though. I lived on the 11th floor last year. Yes, the elevators are annoying during move-in/move-out, but there’s really nothing you can do. Try to get there as early (or late) as possible to avoid the crowds. I got there around 1 or 2 (I think) and didn’t have to wait for an elevator. </p>
<p>And–if you live on the 5th or 6th floor in ANY of the towers in Warren, NEVER take the elevator unless you are injured or carrying a lot of stuff. People get really annoyed at you–just take the stairs. Sometimes you have to wait a while for an elevator. But the stairs are always a great workout. Warren, despite its problems, is a great freshman experience. I actually met a lot of people on elevators.</p>
<p>Yeah the 12th floor really isn’t that bad. That’s the cut off imo. I think the floors above the 12th floor suck because you have to wait so long.</p>
<p>The elevators work decently. C tower elevators let you know what floor they are on at least, whereas the other towers don’t have that luxury ( I guess). You’ll get used to it, nothing to fret about. The 12th floor is fine.</p>
<p>Haha, engineering floor… what an interesting bunch of kids that was…</p>
<p>my room is in warren room 1204A. Does this mean that i am in building A floor 12? How is this room?</p>
<p>@ivann92: Yes you’re on the 12th floor of A tower and you will have a good view of the COM lawn and the prudential center and wahtnot.</p>
