<p>i'm just wondering because i sent in my housing application today and i put down peabody and gregory drive halls as my top two choices. do you think i will get into those two dorms?</p>
<p>yea i asked the same thing. i sent an email to the housing department and they replied back:</p>
<p>"It is true that there is a lesser chance of getting into some preferences if you apply that late. However, FAR and PAR do not always tend to be as highly preferenced as other dorms by other students, so theres a decent chance of you being placed there, ESPECIALLY if you apply to a Living Learning Community (such as WIMSE, which I recommend for you since youre in Animal Sciences). All floors in PAR and FAR are single gender, so youd only ever be sharing a floor with girls in those halls anyway. Id say not to apply for Gregory or Peabody if you dont want to live there since those are more popular than PAR and FAR, on average.</p>
<p>Applying to Allen Hall at this point in time does not give you a good chance of being there. Last year, it was our experience that students who applied after February to Allen were unable to be placed there as a result of a lack of space.</p>
<p>We will have space for you somewhere though. "</p>
<p>but you can still have hope!!</p>
<p>when did you apply?</p>
<p>ha i just applied today too…</p>
<p>So wait, is there still a decent chance of getting a dorm in the 6 pack? The reply from the housing department didn’t quite exactly answer that.</p>
<p>yea she didnt really answer that… but what i did get from it was that they are really popular so you can try but just dont get your hopes up for those.</p>
<p>Chances of getting a dorm in the six pack when applying now are very slim. Housing is doled out in order of housing apps received and you should assume that for six pack they already have more than enough applications with the six pack as first choice to fill those units. However, the slim chance exists simply because some withdraw their applications but even then you may be too far down the line on the list of persons asking for the six pack to have your choice honored.</p>
<p>so true drusaba.</p>
<p>But is the 6 pack really that great? Or is it all just hype? because if it really is awesome then i’ll be bummed out for not living there. What is so good about it that EVERYONE wants to live there??</p>
<p>hey, if you stay in the six pack can you still study and sleep normally without getting too disrupted by parties and social events?</p>
<p>So if theres no place left in 6 Pack, which do u recommend other than ISR? FAR?</p>
