I was just accepted to the Honors Program in UMich which is housing in South Quad this upcoming year. I was just wondering what types of dorms are available in SQuad for freshmen (single, double, private vs public bath, etc.) and what its like living there. Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks! Also – if anyone else is also going to be a freshman in UMich this year, let me know and we can chat on insta or facebook or something (would love to meet a possible future roommate / friends :)).

Pretty sure squad has all your normal room types but no private baths (exceptions for people with disabilities I believe, so I think there’s a few, but unless you fall into that category you’ll be using a shared/public bathroom). More than likely you’ll end up in a double in SQ but I do have honors friends in singles, so there is a possibility. Congrats on the honors program ^^

I am a current freshman living in south quad with honors. I know of mostly doubles, with some quads with private bathrooms and some quads without on each floor (the ones without are converted lounges). I really don’t know anyone in a single but I think living with a roommate is a really great experience to have. Mostly everyone uses the public bathrooms, but there are gender-neutral bathrooms on almost every floor, some of which have showers. My floor is pretty quiet, but I have made a lot of honors friends in the building and it’s been a really good experience for me. There are a bunch of study rooms and the biggest dining hall on campus so those are both really great. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask!

Thanks so much for the response! I actually have a question about rooming. Since honors kids room together, how did you find your roommate? The facebook group has no honors kids as of yet so I’m really struggling here.

Thanks! So excited to go blue next year!

@EdenMia I believe there is a Facebook page for Class of 2022 Honors. Search University of Michigan Class of 2022 LSA Honors.

@EdenMia I went random which I am very happy with, but if you’re not comfortable with that then I think there was a fb group but people also posted about honors in the regular group.
