<p>I’m in a triple, at least for the next semester. What’s the protocol for a triple, since there are only two closets, limited storage space, and all of that?</p>
<p>I'm in a triple too, and I'm just as confused as you are.</p>
<p>they give us three beds, three desks, but you have to share the storage space. They claim that they'll try to detriple us, but after talking to housing, it seems unlikely cause the lady there told me they still don't have everyone in triples (meaning some people are in quadruples or aren't placed yet). Here's an idea for AU: don't admit more people than you have space for - it's amazing how many colleges screw that up (and in doing so, screw us).</p>
<p>maybe more people are now choosing AU over their other options?</p>
<p>AU probably thought it wasn't gonna get that many students deciding to commit to AU (i guess the admission grants:commitment ratio wasn't as good before).</p>
<p>i guess that's a good thing though...</p>
<p>Yeah, I am a transfer student going to AU this fall. Anyway, my discussion with housing went something along the lines of- "because we received more positive decisions than usual, and with our policy of lowering acceptence rate, we were not prepared for such an increase in incoming undergraduates. In the years to come, with the implementation of the University's plan, AU will become more and more selective and will start curtailing its acceptence rates and will help garner the reputation of the school as being one of the preimier instiutions in the DC area, but until then housing will be cramped. Incoming freshman will be sorted out as soon as we finish with this year's upper classmen housing contracts. There are many upperclassmen that forget to inform housing that they are not needing on campus housing, or will be living in the Park, which is unfortunate towards our incoming class. I can tell you that much of the housing situation will disipate throughout the year."</p>
<p>Something like that, so dont worry, they said it will be alright inthe end...</p>
