Housing for transfer students

<p>How does the housing work for transfer students? Are they usually housed together? Can we get singles?</p>

<p>When my D transfered, they had her rate three different choices of housing--she got into her first choice, lo-rise apartments. She did not ask for a single, but she got one. She was put in a ten person apartment--four of them were transfers, and they were housed closest together.</p>

<p>hey everybody :),</p>

<p>today we got the e-mails about transfer housing and preferences, and i was wondering what people preferred and why... i was going to go for a single in a residential hall, but i was wondering if there were any characteristics or anything- physical or otherwise, of the halls or houses?</p>

<p>thanks so much!

<p>What are the options they give you as a transfer? I'll tell you what I know about them!</p>

<p>thanks! it's basic i think... it just says whether you'd like to live in a residence hall or an apartment, and if you want a single or not.. i'm just wondering if it's awkward in an apartment or in part of a residence hall where you're new and all the other people exept the frosh already know each other..</p>

<p>Even when you're put in apartments, you're usually put with other transfers... they're fairly good and nice and careful about that. So go for what you think actually sounds better! Especially if you're going into your junior year, choosing a residence hall is an unlikely option, as there won't really be other juniors around you. If you're a sophomore, it's more of a tossup.</p>

<p>Actually, this coming year there are a bunch of juniors living in the Foss Hill dorms... which is why so many sophomores didn't get Foss Hill. I think the juniors consist largely of male distance runners (the men's x-c and track team) but there are others too.</p>

<p>Mmm, mostly in nic 7, right?</p>
