Housing

<p>I am seriously ****ed off at UCLA. The only thing I asked for on the Housing Application was to get a double. I didn't ask for a roommate or a theme floor. The ONLY preference I had was to get a double, and then they put me in the worst possible dorm.</p>

<p>HEDRICK TRIPLE. >=[</p>

<p>I'm gonna scream.</p>

<p>you got your housing information already? did you get it in the mail? are they all mailed out already?</p>

<p>I'm wondering too. I did the same preferences (no roommate, no themes, just a double in residential hall).</p>

DYKSTRA HALL
Double
Contract Start Date: 09/25/2005

<p>Looks like I got Dyksta. It also seems that I got my roommate! Right on! I don't really like Dystra as it's the oldest facility. But it's fun, so I guess it's alright. Oh man, dykstra doesn't have shower stalls (curtains...shock =( oh well. I'll live with it. I think I'm going to go for the 14 premier plan. Anyone else have Dystra? It seems that the majority of you guys and girls have Hedrick. No one got Sproul, Rieber, or the new Hedrick Summit and Rieber Vista.</p>

<p>i got HEDRICK DOUBLE but i wanted sproul or dykstra :(</p>

<p>hahaha enjoy the walk up to hedrick, freshmen :)</p>

<p>don't let dykstra's age intimidate you, chan - its a great place to live</p>

<p>AHHHH omgg dudeee what is good or bad about hedrick?</p>

<p>how long is the walk and is reiber closer?</p>

<p>I'm almost certain you can appeal your Hedrick triple assignment (seriously, that's a horrible assignment, haha)</p>

<p>On my floor in sproul this year there were two rooms of first years...and they were doubles. Everyone was curious since a lot of second years can't even get doubles in Sproul. The ppl from both rooms said that they had appealed their original assignment--one room was originally a sproul triple, one was a dykstra triple. Both ended up with sproul doubles. So you never know.</p>

<p>Offered double in Sproul. Grab it and run? Seems like everyone's high on Sproul. Can anyone be specific about their reasons? Is it just the location? Or the amenities? Not sure how it compares to other residence halls.</p>

<p>I appealed my original assignment last year and got a Sproul room. Sproul is great, but has very few freshmen. Hedrick is a great place for first-years simply because it is almost all first-years. </p>

<p>tdad, Sproul is desired because of its location mostly - it is close to roads to both north and south campus, it is central to the Hill itself, and is closest to Puzzles and Bruin Cafe. That and... well, its just cool ;)
In any case, I wouldn't fret too much about your assignment as long as you're in one of the high rises. You'll have a great time no matter where you live.</p>

<p>hedrick triple here too.. ick. triple.</p>

<p>Guys, I know it may seem horrible to be in a triple, but you know what? It's just not that bad. Well, as long as you approach it with a positive outlook.</p>

<p>I've had a triple, and it really was a lot of fun.</p>

<p>I got a double in Sunset Village... I was sorta hoping for DeNeve but I think this will work out alright. </p>

<p>Hopefully I'll still be able to make friends... Would it even be possible for me to change to a residence hall at this point?</p>

<p>It's possible, but not likely. Besides, why bother? You're in a great spot.</p>

<p>That's true... my only concern is that it will be hard to make friends. I'm pretty outgoing so I think I should be able to manage, though.</p>

<p>Go Dykstra! You'll love it. There are shower stalls, just no private changing area. The entire shower area is closed off with a curtain. Don't worry about it, it'll be awesome :)</p>

<p>Hedrick double!!! Hey maybe some of us are roomies...maybe</p>
