They just notified me of a change of housing, for the worse!!

<p>AHH! Is this legal? UCLA just notified me that I have been changed from a res hall triple (Hedrick) to a suite in Hedrick Summit, and are making me pay $555 more this quarter. I have already paid the fees for the triple in Hedrick res hall. GODdddddddd I have been shafted by the administration. I was perfectly happy with a triple in Hedrick!! Can I change it back?</p>

<p>Not sure if you can change back...</p>

<p>But I do know that a lot of kids are being moved out of hedrick hall to be moved into hedrick summit or the suites. </p>

<p>So, it could have been worse. You can try and call ucla and ask if you change back.</p>

<p>The same happened to me except they didn't make me pay any more than I already did. I asked a similar question earlier and the responses I got indicated that you can't change back. But call and see if it can happen</p>

<p>Hmm.. I wonder why they are not making you pay more? It's quite a bit more money.. $2000, around! My parents think they may have looked at income when doing this. GRRRrrrrrrrrr. Income too high for finaid, but they still feel they can milk another couple thousand out of us. Aghh</p>

<p>I doubt they considered income if they had to move you. </p>

<p>Like, really. They didn't move you because they thought they could get more money. They moved you (and apparently lots of other people) for some other mysterious reason. It's not as if they're putting someone in a lower income bracket into the triple that they kicked you out of. </p>

<p>Shall be ok.</p>

<p>Oh no, I know that. It's just that I wonder why I have to pay the $2000 extra when the other person doesn't?</p>

<p>UCLA facebook 2010 group has several students who had this happen. ALL were in Hedrick, and all were either transferred to Summit or Hitch. So it appears they overestimated their space in Hedrick.</p>

<p>Yeah I don't know. I would look into that.</p>

<p>Yeah clearly there's an issue with Hedrick.</p>

<p>you should request that you only pay the price of a hedrick triple in exchange for being moved to hedrick summit :)</p>

<p>Why is Hedrick Hall filling up so soon?
You would think that the new suites/plazas would be overestimated first... :rolleyes:</p>

<p>i just got moved from a triple in rieber vista, to a triple in hitch suites. anyone have this happen to them. </p>

<p>they better not make me pay more. im gonna call tomorrow and see if i can have it switched back</p>

<p>ouch, that sucks. so they just changed you for no reason?</p>
