I'm confused...about financial situation & dorms

<p>On the Davis Housing website it states that you should determine whether or not you want a single or double occupancy, because it affects one’s financial aid. </p>

<p>This is where I get confused:</p>

<p>1) Does it mean it will be cheaper if you share it with two people? (Since it will be half of the cost?)</p>

<p>OR </p>

<p>2) Does it mean that a single occupancy room will be cheaper, in general?</p>

<p>****Also, does anyone know the exact prices for a single AND double occupancy room…in order to figure out which one is cheaper?**</p>

<p>Thank you for the help!</p>

<p>I don't remember the exact numbers - just know that it's not THAT big of a difference. The double occupancy room is twice the size of a single roughly, so there's not much to think about there. Go with what you would prefer.</p>

<p>I'm not a housing expert but I do see this on their site <a href="http://www.housing.ucdavis.edu/Halls/New/default.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.housing.ucdavis.edu/Halls/New/default.htm&lt;/a>
“Room & board rates for the academic year vary, depending upon the room occupancy and meal plan selected.”
If you click on the link “Room &board rates” you can view what the expected cost for single, double and triple rooms with the different meal plans incorporated into the cost.</p>

<p>Thank you guys for your help! :)</p>
