<p>Anyone still waiting on their dorm assignment? D's been waiting 10 weeks and no contract.</p>
<p>Yea, a few of my friends still haven't gotten their contracts yet; they sent out the app around mid-May. You should get it soon, we're supposed to get our roommate info by early August...</p>
<p>i'm in the same boat here. Sent my app May 10, so i'm hoping it's coming soon.</p>
<p>Anyone know anything about Oxford housing? (We know it's out-of-the-way!) D got contract for "3-person apartment" today. Any info is helpful!</p>
<p>Oxford used to be where they housed sophomore transfers, and it also had a hotel conference center. They have used it in the past when the freshman class is big, and they may have converted the conference center as well for last year's class. </p>
<p>As I understand it, they have traditionally preferred NOT to use it for freshman because it is a little out-of-the-way, but freshmen who end up there are generally really happy with it. I believe they added a bus stop last year.</p>
<p>is it more out-of-the-way than north campus housing though?</p>
<p>More news on Oxford--The AA Transportation Authority is restoring "The Link" which was a bus route that ran in a big circle from campus to downtown. They're going to add Oxford House to the route. </p>
<p>So Oxford students will not only have a bus link to campus, they can readily get to the Main Street & Kerrytown area. Without changing buses.</p>
