<p>riepe has no 3-person suites... (note that there is no code for riepe triples in the rent schedules for next year)</p>
<p>the only such rooms are in ware and fisher (i believe many more in fisher than in ware); sorry that you can't have mine, which is, i believe, the largest triple in quad =)</p>
<p>Anyone know about the essays you have to write to get into some of the houses in the Quad. I know about the healthy living one. Any others?</p>
<p>tenebrousfire, i feel like Riepe House is the most social in the Quad. This could be a completely unbased false statement but can you tell me how life has been for you in a triple/in the Quad where you are in terms of the social aspect</p>
<p>i hear fisher is most social in the quad...but on the other hand...its all the quad so can one really be more social than another...they are all generally constructed teh same i though...and i thought there were 4 houses in teh quad..not 3</p>
<p>there are only 3 houses (the fourth was abolished some time ago), and all are very social...</p>
<p>masterflor: i'll be living in that triple next year (which is why you can't have it)... i am currently in hill, which is similarly (if not more) social.</p>
<p>there's only one triple? im sure theres gotta be a few more than that haha</p>
<p>oh no, i don't mean one triple, i just mean mine =p</p>
<p>there's not many in ware that i know of, but plenty in fisher...</p>
<p>I need advice:
I'm not sure if I want to roll the dice and request a single in the quad for my first three choices(will this hurt my chances of getting in there?) or just request a double? </p>
<p>I assume there are more doubles than singles in the quad?</p>
<p>If that's the case, I really don't care if I get a single or a double, I just want in the quad...but a single would be optimal. Here are my choices, let me know if you think I'm screwing myself over.</p>
<pre><code> Preference 1 Riepe College House RIEP-10 Single Room
Preference 2 Ware College House WARE-10 Single room
Preference 3 Fisher Hassenfeld FSHS-10 Single Room
Preference 4 Hill College House HILL-10 Single room
Preference 5 Stouffer College House STOU-10 Single room
Preference 6 Kings Court-English CH KCEH-20 Double room
</code></pre>
<p>I already submitted my choices...does getting it in this early help me in getting my first or second choice?</p>
<p>1: Ware Double
2: Fisher Double
3: Riepe Double
4: Hill Double</p>
<p>5-8 were quads/suites in the highrises.</p>
<p>is it a bad thing if I still haven't received my housing brochure and what not?</p>
<p>It is all online...........</p>
<p>is it really that hard to socialize if you go to one of the highrises?</p>
<p>also, how hard is it to get those highrises anyway? is it like based on your essays or something?</p>
<p>Lots of students like the highrises.........it isn't hard to socialize it is just a different layout. Generally the highrise housing assignments aren't that hard to get. Regular housing doesn't require an essay........program housing does.</p>
<p>Can anyone add anything with regards to the experience that freshman living in high-rises have? I know that most people think that the Quad is the best, but I am concerned that it might be difficult to get work done there. Any help would be much appreciated.</p>
<p>Most people don't study in the rooms.........Quad and high rises have lounges, there are libraries and that from my experience is where serious studying occurs.</p>
