Princeton 2010 Housing Thread

<p>So we're getting awfully close to housing assignment time!
Last year, Princeton apparently mailed out the assignments on July 15th (found after snooping through philntex's posts from mid-July '05).
I doubt anyone here is willing to wait that long, however. By looking through Phil's posts, I found an interesting link, that supposedly shows your address online. On July 14th, someone was able to find their Holder address through this site:
<a href="http://web.princeton.edu/sites/TreasurersOffice/LandR/StudentAccounts/#%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://web.princeton.edu/sites/TreasurersOffice/LandR/StudentAccounts/#&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>If you're able to log in, it's supposed to show your address somewhere on your screen, which should allow you to determine your residential college and (obviously) your dorm. I don't think our accounts are entered yet--no one I've talked to has gotten anything but "Student Account not found," but HOPEFULLY, we'll have some success later today.</p>

<p>So, just post here if you're able to log on with your residential college, dorm, and any thoughts or reactions.
58 DAYS UNTIL PRINCETON (51 for OA, I guess...)
GET PUMPED.</p>

<p>No luck here....</p>

<p>I just can't wait for college to start :)</p>

3

<p>I can log in!!!</p>

<p>But all it says under Campus Address is "CAMPUS MAIL."</p>

<p>Oh please, deities of residential college randomization, look at the state of the poor sleepless freshers posting on CC at 3 a.m. because we're anxiously waiting for housing assignments, and give us our dorm assignments soon!!</p>

4

<p>yep, it just says "campus mail" for me</p>

5

<p>Wow- I just checked and rather than the usual "error, you don't exist" message, they've put in my Permanent address thing so it says that my campus address is in Australia :confused:. Anyone else get that?</p>

6

<p>It's the same for me. My campus address is actually my home address. I guess they fixed it since last year. And I was so excited that my account existed too! Oh well, a few more days won't kill me, eh? I hope...</p>

7

<p>Eek, my account's in now!
I think a few more hours...</p>

<p>Describe your perfect roommate....</p>

9

<p>Talkative, but able to listen.
Quirky (I mean REALLY quirky, not oh-sometimes-I-talk-to-random-people-isn't-that-interesting quirky.)
Able to put up with my loudness.
Good taste in music (doesn't necessarily have to be the same as mine).
Tolerant, able to adjust to/participate in new things.
Good sense of humor.
Coincidentally a genius in every single subject that I plan to study at Princeton.</p>

10

<p>Well, my balance keeps rising so at least they're doing something on the site!</p>

11

<p>Hmm..yeah.
My balance is up to $16,630 now, which is strange, because my family contribution is supposed to only be $3000.</p>

12

<p>i have the same $16,630 balance</p>

13

<p>holy crap man $3K isn't even that much for a school like princeton... man, that must be nice. finaid.</p>

14

<p>how do you log in? I don't see anywhere to do it.</p>

15

<p>Student Account Bill - Student View, username/password are the same as for your email.</p>

16

<p>has anyone found their address?</p>

17

<p>Nope, no luck yet. My money numbers keep changing, however.</p>

18

<p>I don't understand the money numbers. Quirkily, my parents' contribution is also 3K and mine this summer is 1.75K so why do I have a figure in the 16K range? I'm a bit confused.</p>

<p>Btw, mine also says "CAMPUS MAILING" :(</p>

19

<p>There's a chance that we'll find out on Monday, right? Seeing as the mailing could have gone out on Friday.</p>

<p>Or am I being way too optimistic?</p>

20

<p>I hate to say it but, I heard the mailing went out today (7/15/06).</p>

<p>We'll DEFINITELY get it next week though (dunno 'bout Monday though).</p>

<p>BTW, does everyone here have facebook? I do. If you'd like to talk on facebook, PM me and we can exchange names.</p>
