<p>Please explain, so I could cope with that fact that I am getting another ****ing triple next year.</p>
<p>Now I'm pretty convinced UCLA housing is THE worst department of any school, period.</p>
<p>people have reagents scholarships. and if you don't like it so much then get an apartment</p>
<p>There has been a declining amount of doubles reserved for freshman this year. This said, students with disabilities / special needs and regent scholars are given priority to these rooms in this order if requested.</p>
<p>Do not be angry for a triple. You chose a public school.</p>
<p>i'll be a freshman and i got a triple...</p>
<p>Yeah, well athletes, regent scholars, aap, all get priority.</p>
<p>Regents don't get any priorities in housing assignments- they only get 4 guaranteed years (btw- where are people getting this "priority for regents" concept from???)</p>
<p>hardly any freshmen are getting doubles. that being said, i am in a double and my roommate will be one of those lucky freshmen.</p>
<p>Most of the regents I know have a double and priority for housing for next school year...</p>
<p>That's why I'm rooming with one..:D</p>
<p>Gee, I wish AAP people get priority for housing. I wish.</p>
<p>how about freshmans with singles?</p>
<p>if freshmen end up in single rooms, it's NOT like they're making more freshmen/sophomores be in doubles/triples.</p>
<p>the only single rooms for non-RAs are "closet singles" which are physically smaller rooms. they will NEVER house more than one person. so it's an entirely different thing altogether.</p>

<p>I wouldn't be bashing UCLA if the other publics (i.e., the other UCs) were facing this problem to the same extent.</p>
<p>UCD put alot of people into triples last year.</p>
<p>Not meant to bash UCLA, but UCLA is too small on the hill to accomodate everyone into a double room.</p>
<p>There is construction this year, so room assignments have to be more compact. It doesn't help too when the school enrolls more students each year.</p>
<p>I believe a lot of popular public schools triple up students anyways.</p>
<p>So I take it I'm lucky since I got a double in Hedrick with my highschool friend? I did get rejected from the honors program however..</p>
<p>regents do have priority. most regents i know going to LA have doubles</p>
<p>i'm an incoming freshman, i have a triple in hedrick summit. i'm going to be exhausted by the time i even get to color guard practice let alone finish and have to walk up the hill again. life's tough and if it bothers you that much i say get an apartment next time, otherwise you just have to deal. sorry :(</p>
<p>hey kirby, i'll be in hedrick summit too!
we can walk to guard practice together :D</p>
<p>Really?! That's so crazy, we have so much in common. It would be really funny (and somewhat awkward haha) if we ended up sharing a room. But... I have to make it into the guard to have guard practice to walk to as in I should really get cracking on my routine. I'm sure I already asked but I don't remember, are you a freshman? You know so much about UCLA that it doesn't seem like you would be a freshman.</p>
<p>They gave me another triple so I canceled my housing contract. My friend is in a double with no roommate for next year, and I had the housing office confirm the room was not fully occupied. They said the RD had to move me, and the RD wouldn't. Instead they ended up putting a freshman there.</p>
<p>Housing is evil.</p>
