<p>What are my chances of getting San Jacinto or Duren if I paid for housing on November 8th?</p>
<p>my freshman year most of my friends didn’t get their first choice, because they all chose duren and san jac. i put jester as my first choice and of course got it because i was the only one dumb enough to put jester as a first choice. it wasn’t too bad, but i had a lot of friends in the private dorms (castilian, dobie, towers) and they seemed to like it.</p>
<p>i checked out that site the previous poster linked to, it looks like it explains all the dorm stuff really well. i was kinda surprised by the pricing info, i always assumed the private dorms were more expensive. i guess it shouldn’t be too surprising, UT overcharges for everything else, so it only makes sense they would overcharge for housing.</p>
