Oh dear, is this a mistake?

<p>Hill double over KC double. I'm starting to think that Hill single was a waste of a spot.</p>

<p>you're fine, really</p>

<p>May I ask how the following set up looks? In ranked order 1-8. May I also ask how competitive the two residential programs, Mentors, and SID are for entrance? I really would like either one of them, with the quad being an extra benefit.</p>

<p>Mentors-Riepe RIEP-10 Single Room
Study of Diseases/Women in Sci-Ware WARE-10 Single room
Fisher Hassenfeld Col Hse FSHS-10 Single Room
Stouffer College House STOU-10 Single room
Kings Court-English CH KCEH-20 Double room
Hill College House HILL-10 Single room
Rodin College House RODN-23 Double (2BR)
Harnwell College House HARN-23 Double (2BR)</p>

<p>It looks like you'll be living in stouffer</p>

<p>And don't waste the last two spots. I mean there's a 0% chance of getting those but you WILL NOT get a double in the highrises, ESPECIALLY if it's choice 7 and 8!</p>

<p>what's with all these singles? having a roommate is a wonderful experience. besides, singles are MUCH rarer (check out the number of rooms under 'residence summaries': <a href="http://www.business-services.upenn.edu/housing/hillsummary.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.business-services.upenn.edu/housing/hillsummary.html&lt;/a&gt;) (much more expensive: <a href="http://www.business-services.upenn.edu/housing/frent0708.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.business-services.upenn.edu/housing/frent0708.pdf&lt;/a> and the 1976 version! <a href="http://www.archives.upenn.edu/primdocs/upa/upa1_1/70s/19760319a1.pdf%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.archives.upenn.edu/primdocs/upa/upa1_1/70s/19760319a1.pdf&lt;/a&gt;) and upperclassman jerks like myself take most of the quad singles :-P</p>

<p>don't live in the highrises as a freshman. I don't know how many times this has to get repeated</p>

<p>gah more misinformation. the only upperclassmen who live in hill are the UCB. This amounts to like 10 people of 500. Also, Hill will not fill up. It's a huge building, and that's where they put the people who don't get any of their requests.</p>

<p>Having a roommate sucks. Live in a social place, without a roommate, not an antisocial place with a roommate.</p>

<p>Perfect mix of two: single in Hill.</p>

<p>Don't listen to Matt he fraternizes with mexicans</p>

<p>having a single is only nice so you can masturbate whenever you want to. get a roommate. live in a social place. make real friends, not weird ones like jco and meng</p>

<p>matt must not familiar with the concept of "private time" with the opposite sex</p>

<p>singles rock</p>

<p>cmon sexiling and getting sexiled is a part of the experience</p>

<p>It's not like there are 20000 other people at Penn to befriend aside from the roommate you never had or anything</p>

<p>sexiling is deadweight loss if you think about it</p>

<p>just cus no one wants to live with you jon...</p>

<p>actually i have an alternative to buying the single. sell me your 360 in exchange for the single. that way you can still play it.</p>

<p>Exploit your friends why don't you</p>

<p>other side note: Believe I heard that if you get into a residential program, but the housing isn't there to accommodate your preferred choice you will still be in the program, except with an alternative type of housing?</p>

<p>don't think so. they limit people based on the number of places they have. if you don't get in, you return to the regular lottery for the next round.</p>

<p>If you apply to 2 res programs in the quad, what are you chances then of getting your first two choices? (Given you took the essay seriously...)</p>
