UCLA Housing: Do we apply now? Or can we wait?

<p>Should we apply right away so we get good housing? Or does it not really make a difference and as long as we apply before June 1st we're good? I'm not SURE I'm going to UCLA yet, but I'd say the odds are above 70% so it might be a good idea to just get set up for housing...</p>

<p>i heard it doesnt matter whether you apply may 1st or may30th as long as you apply before their deadline everyone has a fair shot at getting what they want.</p>

<p>^
are we sure about this?</p>

<p>this site says: “Most transfer students who live on campus will be assigned to triple rooms.”</p>

<p>makes me want to consider off campus even more</p>

<p>Housing is assigned by lottery and you need to get your application in before the deadline to be guaranteed.</p>

<p>^</p>

<p>but it’s not time-sensitive, right?</p>

<p>no its a lottery that they do after june 1st, and release your assignment on like june 3rd…they are quick</p>

<p>Well I highly doubt they go through about 20million housing apps in two days right? I mean if they have a pile of housing apps sitting there waiting to be processed before the deadline… It can’t hurt to turn it in early.</p>

<p>Just get the housing application in before the deadline and you should be fine.</p>
