<p>I missed the housing contract and I was put on the waitlist for housing for my Freshman year. Any idea if I'll be able to get a dorm? Or should I just go ahead and get something off campus?</p>
<p>Wait until after 5/1, when people have to make their decisions.</p>
<p>You may be able to get a dorm. I recall that when I applied for freshman year housing, I had to pick on May 8, so all the rooms were taken, & I was waitlisted for housing. I checked the housing page every day for several weeks, until I found an opening in both Thomas & Springs, so I chose a double suite Springs (AC ftw). My friend, who was waitlisted as well, did not the same initiative I did…He got a quad room in Thomas. I heard that people who are waitlisted usually get assigned to late app triples, but I would check the listings on a daily basis (at least) to see if anything opens up. I got lucky, because my roommate’s friend, who initially held the room for them, ended up enrolling at FSU, so I managed to grab his spot before anyone else could.</p>
