<p>Hi Im planning to visist UT as an exchange student. The Castilian Dorms look solid. Have you heard of them?. Do you know a better recommendation? (consider that I'll be arriving in January and that I don't know anybody there)</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>You can try the Dobie Center.</p>
<p>Thanks, I’ve heard of it. Also Towers. But which one is better? I know that The Castillian and Dobie are right across the street, but where does all the party takes place?</p>
<p>Another question, if Im planning to go there in January, when should I start contacting these dorms in order to reserve a single room?</p>
<p>Finally, any apartmente complex that is better that those Dorms?</p>
<p>parties occur everywhere and anywhere. </p>
<p>i think dobie is better than castillian if you’re just gonna compare the two…but you could probably find something better. </p>
<p>i recommend the triangle, the villas, and i think towers is actually alright too.</p>
<p>but yes start now; and you’re looking for a ‘‘spring contract’’ only not fall/spring, obviously! but just so you know!</p>
<p>i suggest you check out the castilian, i lived there as a freshman last year and i was able to meet a lot of people and since the management is so chill, we were able to “party” quite a bit. there’s also a ton of international students (including myself) both exchange and permanent. i’ve heard dobie isn’t as social as the castilian so if you’re looking for a more quiet environment then that’s a place you should check out.</p>
