Hi! I recently got excepted into the Summer B program at UF. I was planning on staying at Broward or Jennings but they aren’t listed as options (I would like a dorm that’s similar to those). I’m looking to stay at a dorm that houses majority freshman, is social, and is in a pretty central location. The options for halls are buckman, cypress, infinity, lakeside, mallory, reid, springs, thomas, and yulee. Please let me know which one is the best suited for me!! Thank you:)
Mallory is all girls but my friends really like it. Im in cypress and its not super social but it is super nice and i love it. otherwise do infinity, but not reid or lakeside.
thank you!! im nervous about infinity being so far from everything & i dont really want an all girls dorm so mallory is out for me, but what about yulee?
Yulee would be a good option for a traditonal style dorm. It’s close to classes and the dining hall. Cypress is nice if you like suite style. I’d stay away from lakeside and springs. Thomas and Buckman tend to have more upperclassmen.
Our letter mentioned Jennings as an option for Summer B? Do different kids get a different list to choose from? Thomas and Buckman said AIM only. Are your options listed in the housing letter or looking online (where drop down windows confusing)?
i just saw the summer dorms that were listed on the RoomSync app and jennings wasn’t listed on there.
@collegegrrrl, I believe you should go by the housing email you received 2 weeks ago. It tells you what Summer B options you have for housing, at least it did for the Summer B students that I know. If you try to put in, say Broward, it’ll say that it’s “Open for Fall 2018, Spring 2019”. If you put in Jennings, it should say “Open Summer, Fall and Spring”.
Use the housing link to log in and find preferences section. Don’t skip right to buildings, select “Jennings area” on top and should see Jennings available to select.
