What's the housing like?

<p>I've been accepted and I'm probably going to go there but in the packet it shows all these different housing options.
So I was wondering which ones are the best.
Which place has the best singles?
Do they all have communal bathrooms on the floors, or do some have bathrooms in the room?<br>
Do the quads have their own bathroom?
I also play piano so I wanted to know where I could go to play piano. Do all of the houses have pianos in them, or just some?</p>

<p>all of the big dorms have pianos in them (Ct mews donlon dickson)
dickson is the singles dorm
ct and mews have 2 doubles and a single suite style sharing a bathroom
ct and mews are the newest and nicest. balch is palacial but girls only.
more info is available housing.cornell.edu</p>

<p>do you have any reccommendations for a house though?</p>

<p>You don't get to choose so it doesn't matter.</p>

<p>Ummm...what I meant is, they're all great so it doesn't matter!</p>

<p>Haha roger that, he's right. Although...while there is an obvious random element to them of course, I'd like to see that survey u take about housing (the "compatibility" one) again, now that I know all the dorms. I bet it works kinda like those stupid livejournal quizzes people make, where you choose what fits you best and then the category with the most points is your "match." What i'm saying is, maybe or maybe not, you could probably answer in a way that would increase your odds of ending up in, say court or donlon as opposed to a low-rise or something. Or not, who knows.</p>

<p>perro, theyre on the website..and i think somebody posted the questions on a different theread..but ye what is ur experience with court/mews, donlon, and dickson... i want ct/mews and single...im early bird, go to bed early, no noise..and im pretty sure ill go in 1 of those 4 so which do u think?? i hear donlon is noisy so thats out...and dickson is primarily singles but i don wanna go to a mostly singles place.... what do u think? (nebody else noticed they no longer have smoker or non smoker!!!!!??)</p>

<p>Ummm ct and mews are like donlon but without the craziness and a lot nicer and newer. In those dorms you will meet a ton of people. I dont really know too much about dickson, although its huge so i imagine you would meet a lot of people whether ur in a single or not. Either way, if you end up in one of those you will be fine.</p>
