Rutgers NB Housing question

<p>I was excepted to both Rutgers New Brunswick School of Biolgical Sciences and Arts and Sciences. I very much would like to live on Cook Campus (my brother attends Rutgers and I have visited all the campuses many times and this is just the one for me) so what is the best way to help my chances? I will be a history major so I will need to be in Rutgers SAS, BUT if I join the SEB school which is located on Cook, will that put me on Cook? Then I could just transfer schools? Any info will be appreciated</p>

<p>BUT here is another but, I am missing my first semester due to military training, so does that mean I will be thrown where ever is open even if I am at first granted the housing I want? Again, any info will be appreciated.</p>

<p>To be honest, the hassle of switching schools wouldn’t be worth it in my opinion. If you want to be a history major, depending on what kind of classes you want to take, most of them will be on the College Ave Campus (with a few on Cook/Douglass campus). The bus ride from college ave to cook/douglass during rush hour takes around an hour, where walking would probably be faster, lol.</p>

<p>I do believe SEBS gets a little more choice in living on cook/douglass campus, but it is easier to get housing on Cook/Douglass than a few other campuses. It’s not everyone’s #1 choice. As far as missing the first semester, I’m not entirely sure.</p>

<p>Thanks, and yes I know if the switching schools in too taxing I will just stay in the one I start in. I guess I just need to call them.</p>

<p>cook will be very easy to get housed on. normally, it’s one of the campuses that people get “stuck on” when they apply for housing late.</p>
