<p>I'm going to attend UChicago next fall and thinking about choosing Hitchcock as my number one choice (I got in early action, so I guess my chances are better for getting in). I stayed at Hitchcock as a prospie, and I really liked the place, even better than Snell. I know incoming first-years only get doubles in Hitchcock, but I'm wondering how many single rooms are there in Hitchcock (cause I'm hoping to get a single when I become a second-year), and how many second-years have singles.</p>
<p>My child is now a third year and after sharing a room in Hitchcock her first year, she has had really nice singles since then. I think that pretty much everyone gets a single after the first year.</p>
<p>I want to get a single after my first-year, but I wasn’t sure if there were enough singles for the rising first-years.</p>
<p>You get a higher chance of getting the dorm you want only based upon when you sent the housing information in. If you were EA but didn’t send it in until May 1 you would be at the bottom of the lottery for rooms.</p>
<p>I met a prospie who is in Hitchcock who applied EA but replied in spring. I believe EA admits have priority, but I’m more interested in the room types and quantity of the dorm.</p>
