<p>oohh okay .. that makes sense . it wouldnt be fair or make sense to have one person not have a desk .. haha .</p>
<p>hmm . i guess i will sleep on this .. probably begin my housing app tomoro . OH would it be possible for a friend of mine and i to get stuck in the same plaza or is that really unlikely ? just wondering .</p>
<p>as roommates or just end up in the same floor/building?</p>
<p>if you want to be roommates, both of you should request each other as a roommate on your application, and they will try to accommodate your request (no guarantees). if you just want the same floor/building, then it would only be by chance...in other words not very likely.</p>
<p>thanx for all the responses guys! how would you recommend ranking the residential halls if i want a social environemnt?</p>
<p>most social to least social:</p>
<p>highrise res halls
highrise plazas (vista, terrace, summit)
de neve
sunset
suites (saxon/hitch)</p>
<p>EDIT: oh right, you cant pick buildings. in that case: residence hall, plaza, suites.</p>
<p>don't worry about "missing out" with a plaza. hell, i've had to live in a suite talk about missing out... but you find ways to correct the situation. everyone here does.</p>
<p>Choose the plazas, so you can start with a strong GPA. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>I dont know about that statement Flopsy...My roomates and I live in sunset and both of them are in the 2.7-3.0 range. but generally speaking you are right lol</p>
<p>does UCLA provide a single room for a freshman? If no, are we supposed to rent a private housing to get a single room?</p>

<p>you can put hedrick summit as your first choice which has singles.</p>
<p>again, 1st years CANNOT pick buildings....</p>
<p>Rokko, there is a very, very, very, slim chance that you'll be placed in a single. so, if that's really what you want, you'd have to look off-campus.</p>
<p>
Yeah I agree. It's not like you'll be in your dorm room 24/7. IMO, it's a better investment to live in a much nicer living arrangement. The convenience is great too. I'd have to walk an extra 10 minutes to get to the suites (Hitch) or Hedrick Hall (residence hall).</p>
<p>oops i forgot first years cant pick my bad</p>
<p>oh yeah, and whats with this 'theme' housing option?</p>
<p>Theme housing doesn't really exist anymore, as far as I know. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>actually it does... and they're all gonna be in evergreen next year (when i looked at room type, most evergreen rooms had some sort of theme to them).
btw evergreen = building in de neve plaza.
choose if you want a plaza and are interested in that particular theme.</p>
<p>So...if we want themed housing, are we pretty much guaranteed to get it? Or guaranteed to get in De Neve Plaza? =D</p>
<p>So I was wondering .. is housing first come , first serve ?? should i be sending in my housing application as soon as possible ??</p>
<p>This is more of a technical question, but I just filled out and sent my app, and I can't seem to find a place to pay the $30 deposit? Help anybody?</p>
