William & Mary Transfer Tips & Dorms

<p>Hello!
I will be transferring to William & Mary as a transfer in the fall. What are the best dorms (AC, Size, Location Social) for transfers? Also am I assigned a roommate, or is there a way to meet people that are looking for roommates so I can choose someone with the same interests and personality? Also, since this is my first year at W&M, do you guys have any tips for me? How to get into the social scene etc? Ooh, and does anyone know if you have to use the furniture provided or if you can use your own and store the original furniture? When I went in, the mattresses looked pretty old and stained and the furniture uncomfortable.
Any other things you would like to share about W&M would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks guys!!</p>
