What housing did you end up with?

I got a triple room in unit 2. That was like my last preference. I kinda regret choosing a triple. What do you think, is triple that bad? Its the cheapest.

I also got a triple in Unit 2. Unit 2 was towards the middle of my list, but I didn't really want to end up in a triple. But hey, at least I have somewhere to live. As long as I'm on campus, all will be well.

A double res hall room at Clark Kerr. It was my first choice, so I'm pretty happy with it.

I don't think a triple in Units is as bad as it sounds. I know a couple people who are pleased with their triple Units rooms. It seems like a lot of people ended up with Units.

I got a Unit 1 double, which was my 1st choice- yea! I think we find out our roomates toward the end of summer; I'm assuming that's when we find out more details as well, i.e. which specific building (if you're in the units), floor, etc.

I wanted Freeborn Hall or the mini-suites; however, I did get my fifth choice of a unit 2 double.

First: Unit 1 Mini-Suite
Second: Unit 2 Mini-Suite
Third: Freeborn Hall
Fourth: Unit 1 Double
Fifth: Any double in any unit.

finemeal,

You have to log on to your Calmail account to check your housing contract. As for me, these were my choices:

1. Unit 1 double mini-suite
2. Unit 2 double mini-suite
3. Unit 3 double
4. Unit 2 double
5. Unit 1 double

Ended up with a Unit 3 double. I'm happy with it since its close to the campus. Anyone else in Unit 3?

Unit 1 - Double . . . YES. I would have liked one of the double mini sweets, but this is just about equal, in my eyes. Yayayay i was happy to find out. I hope that you people end up happy, even if you didn't get what you wanted.
