Sophomore Lottery

<p>If I have a time on the second day. fourth hour in (Wed at 12), how good are my chances of getting Webb, Troy, or Cardinal Gardens?</p>

<p>I'm just curious to know, how many students are given the same lottery time? How many students are in one day??</p>

<p>I know that web fills up by noon on the first day. I don’t know about troy or Cardinal gardens…</p>

<p>I agree, Webb fills up by noon. My daughter had 1:30 pm on the first day last year and didn’t get in. Who knows, you might get lucky though.
Cardinal was fine, and she’s been happy there this year. Don’t know about Troy.</p>

<p>webb will be full, troy will have a few open spots, but troy east will probably be open. cardinal gardens will be open.</p>

<p>from what other upperclassmen have told me, both webb and troy/troy east will be gone, but cardinal gardens should still be open.</p>

<p>Seems like Troy is the top choice and certainly my number 1 choice. I would think that Troy would fill up first and then Webb and Cardinal. Do you think Troy or Webb will be available at 11 am? What about Century? THANKS!!</p>

<p>Is it only the 2 bedrooms in Webb that will be full? How about the one bedrooms?</p>

<p>I had ~10:45 on the first day and I got Webb, it was gone shortly after.</p>

<p>I’m looking for a nice, off-campus single. How are the University housing options?</p>

<p>And, do you think I could get something cheaper, nicer, basically better if I went the non-USC housing route?</p>

<p>I have 6:15pm on the 18th (last day). What do I have a chance of getting?</p>

<p>Any updates on the housing situation?</p>

<p>webb and troy 4 persons were full by 11:00 this morning. troy east is full. cardinal gardens is open as of right now</p>

<p>what about the 5 people rooms in troy?</p>

<p>thank you swoopes. So the 2 person suites might still be open at Troy?</p>

<p>Any better or worse buildings in Cardinal Gardens? Do all the rooms have balconies? Is Cardinal better than Century? Thanks.</p>

<p>mraoshi: as of 6:30PM today, there were still 2 person suites open at Troy (Troy East is full) but I’m not sure how many were left!</p>

<p>it doesn’t matter what letter building you have. in fact, you might even get placed into a different letter building than the one you choose, but you will still keep your room type (2b4p or 1b2p). if you are getting a 1b2p, then either the 2xx or 4xx are fine, although the 2xx is more convenient. if you’re going for the 2b4p, then go for the 3xx or 5xx. you don’t want the 1xx, because you’re in the dungeon and you don’t have a balcony. 1xx do have a back door though. also, 1xx have really bad placement on their AC unit, which is another reason to choose the 3xx or 5xx.</p>

<p>thanks wanderlusting. </p>

<p>Everyone: There are still 2 person apartments at Cardinal Gardens as of 9:15AM today, and there were like 4 2 person apartments at Troy. </p>

<p>Hope everything goes well for everyone who hasn’t done housing yet,</p>

<p>So it doesn’t matter if you’re in A, B, etc.? None have better placement? I was thinking the inside buildings might be kind of dark and that a street facing unit would be better but don’t know. Is it noisy?: So 5XX is good? Didn’t know if facing Jefferson would be better than facing the McClintock side street. Are they in good shape inside? Have they been fairly recently re-done, have decent appliances, etc. Does each building have a lounge? Thanks for all your advise!</p>

<p>Rosieony,</p>

<p>A is on Jefferson, J and H are on McClintock, B is on Orchard.</p>

<p>I would say that D and H are the most inconveniently located. In my opinion, A, J, F, and G have the best placement.</p>

<p>Yes, 5XX are good, although in my opinion 3XX are better. 5XX can get annoying because you have to climb up 2 flights of stairs.</p>

<p>Most of the apartments are in fine shape. I haven’t seen one that would be considered “run down”. There isn’t really a difference in any of the amenities from building to building. There are no lounges in the buildings, but the CG as a whole has a Customer Service Center for mail/packages with a pool table and brand new foosball table. We also now have 5 picnic tables (we just got 3 new ones this week). There is a basketball court and a beach volleyball court. And there are 3 laundry rooms, each with 4 washers and 4-6 dryers.</p>
