Housing

<p>dperalta, I wouldn’t suggest leaving your stuff in the bathroom because it is open to everyone.</p>

<p>I am planning to put Juniper/Poplar as my first 2 options…but for my third option…which would you recommend?..???</p>

<p>Beta/Castor: ( I don’t like the whole thing about the bathroom down the hall…any bad experience wit Beta/Castor Bathrooms???)</p>

<p>Kosove Doubles: ( Is it worth paying the $600/month for a ktichen I wont be using???..do a lot of freshman would be living here???..are the rooms kept in nice condition?..any bad or good you have heard from these apartments???)</p>

<p>Cypress Hall or Maple Hall: ( Do any of these 2 allow freshman?..i think cypress allows upper-class-men and First year female students…and maple only upper-class-men and engineering community…am I right???</p>

<p>^^^ Does Kosove Doubles apartment, Cypress Hall, Maple Hall provide with a great freshman experience???</p>

<p>I don’t really think Kosove doubles is worth the money, you’re better off in a suite. And you’re right Cypress and Maple are for upperclassmen only with the exception of Cypress A, which is all female.</p>

<p>I don’t think traditional styles would be all that bad but it really depends on you and what you feel comfortable with. You could also look into the older suits like delta, epsilon,etc.</p>

<p>Oh and there is a kitchen on each floor of all the other residence halls anyway.</p>

<p>yea…but i heard that is better to avoid the suite halls…such as delta, zeta, eta…etc…because they are older, therefore in not as good condition as the other suites. I also think that epsilon are for students starting in summer</p>

<p>It really all depends on what YOU want and would be happy with. What’s right for someone else might not work for you and vice versa. Epsilon is available for fall students; nothing is exclusively for students who start in the summer because they get reassigned in the fall anyway.</p>

<p>Basically your options are:
traditional (Beta and Castor)
older suites with 8 people to a suite (That’s your delta, epsilon, zeta, ect.)
older single room suite (like theta)
newer suite with 4 people to a suite (Juniper and Poplar)
double room apartment (Kosove)
and single room apartments (Kosove and Holly)</p>

<p>I think i got everything lol.</p>

<p>did anyone put all three of their options the in the same dorm. for example i wanted to be in the engineering community so i put community for my first two options. one juiper and other poplar building with juniper single as my third option. is that a good idea? </p>

<p>also who here is applying for financial aid?</p>

<p>hey blackrose, i put all my 3 options as JPH, cos i’m applying for the Honors LLC…</p>

<p>yeah ok I feel a bit better cause my situation is a bit similiar to yours in the fact that I am applying for the engineering community which is only in the juniper poplar dorm.</p>

<p>it’ll be pretty cool if we wind up in the same housing (:</p>

<p>Y’all need to relax about what dorm you’ll get. They’re all okay. You’ll get a single bed, a desk and chair, and air conditioning…what more do you need? Remember USF is in the sunshine state–you’ll be enjoying terrific weather outside year round too!</p>

<p>Anyone have any interior photos of Holly apartments? Would really appreciate some photos of an interior of a room for planning for fall…searched all over the internet couldnt find anything but the layout on school website and photos of outside also looked on housing fb page; would really love to see one that is being lived in with stuff in it…Any help would be appreciated!</p>

<p>Hey Guys!..just a little update, since you guys don’t write on this thread anymore…I couldn’t because I got banned for a week for spamming the boards… :P</p>

<ul>
<li><p>I applied for both Juniper and Poplar as my first 2 options, I did not put a 3rd option.</p></li>
<li><p>I got the unlimited meal plan</p></li>
<li><p>I’m going to Orientation on July 12, 13?..anyone going these days???</p></li>
</ul>

<p>^^^shelcon…sorry I could not find any pictures either. :(</p>

<p>^ wow, that’s pretty wild getting busted by College Confidential. How’s it feel getting your privileges back?</p>

<p>^^^…actually is the second time I got busted…lol…they have banned me two times already…:P…it happens because I always want to get answers from different type of sources, so I post my thread in more than 2 forums(even when I believe those forums apply to my question), but I guess you cannot post them in more than 2 different forums. I finally learned my lesson, I don’t think I will be making the same mistake again.:)</p>

<p>^^^it feels great but, I guess the other Bulls have forgotten about this thread. :/</p>

<p>nahh, i’m still here (: check this thread almost every other day. and no one else seems to write here. lol. well, anw, i’m doing orientation on 16/17 aug.</p>

<p>hey can someon explain the meal plans to me better. like i thought there was only three. but it seems like there are diffrent categpries within the meal plan. also i keep checking my status for housing to see if anything changed. what i want to know is does everything have to bechecked off before u get ur housing or is just a simply a checklist?</p>
