Opinions on New Grad?

My top two housing choices are Max P and South, but since I committed late (April 27), my chances are pretty low to actually get housed there. I want to put a feasible option for my third housing choice and was considering New Grad. I really want to be in a more social dorm and want to be relatively close to campus. Can anyone tell me a little about New Grad? Or maybe suggest another house?
Thanks!
