tour guide said that the Highland dorms are the most desirable and go first, so be sure to put in your $150 non-refundable housing deposit as soon as possible if you want first pick on your dorm in May when they open up housing selection to incoming freshmen.

@sbinaz You might want to clarify whether the first chance to put down a housing deposit is after everyone commits (SIR deadline is May 1) or if it is ASAP after students receive their acceptance. The University of Arizona FAQ says you can put your deposit down as soon as you are accepted.

campus has something like 7 (maybe she said 5?) different libraries on campus. Top floor of main library is a silent floor. Handy if you need to study in total silence.

This is common at many colleges. The bottom floors are more social (ex. group studying) and there are more noise limits as you move towards the top of the building. Top floors are usually designated as quiet.
