When do you get your housing application?

@PhilaSkiMom Thank You!!. She did get it and saw the sender as "do not reply and assumed it was spam. It came a week ago and she didn’t even realize she had it. She and I are feeling much better now.

I thought I’d close the loop on this one for anyone else who’s curious about the timing. Deposit was made on April 1, housing packet arrived today April 18.

D got packet with actual information yesterday. I guess she just had brochures before. Trying to figure out if anyone knows where the various LLCs are housed? Can’t find the information on the housing website except for a few LLCs–honors is Sutherland but where will “women lead” be?

@Booajo We asked the housing people where the music LLC would be when we were there at an accepted students day. They refused to tell us. They said they didn’t want people’s decision to be in the LLC to be influenced by where it was. I don’t know if that’s good or bad. Are they worried the location will scare kids away, or are they worried it will attract kids that really wouldn’t be interested otherwise?

@Booajo Maybe ask on the Pitt Parent group on FB? (Pitt Parents, Class of 2019+)

I never heard of a music LLC to be honest! Maybe the LLC is new and dependent on how much interest is expressed?

Most freshman housing is going to be double or triple rooms and communal bathrooms. Bruce and Sutherland has suite style. So if your D is really interested to join one of these LLC I don’t think the building they are in is going to make that much difference, being in a community with same interest people will be more important.

Since there are about 15 freshman LLCs and engineering, business, honors and nursing have their designated buildings (Forbes, Bruce, Sutherland, Lothrop), the remaining 11 are probably on designated floors in Nordenberg, Towers and Holland.

My D would not consider Women Who Lead because it might be in Holland. She does not want all-girls dorm. She is applying for Honors instead and hoping for Sutherland.
