Housing Assignment

Ivy-mom · 07-22-2009, 04:38 PM

My D got her rooming assignment. How do we determine if it is a single, double, etc.? She's in McCormick, so it says her rooming assignment is for the full fall semester.

Thanks!!!

well i figured it out by first reading
McCormick Hall Virtual Tour

and then going to the floor plans (you need a mit certificate and u should kno that Mccormick is building W4)...

Hi!

I'm in Baker next year, any chance that I'd be able to figure out? I can't really tell by the floor plan - it just looks pretty big.

Thanks!

A lot of freshmen in Baker actually have quads, so maybe that's why it's really big.

Do any of you know if there is a way to get the dimensions of a dorm? Thanks!

I was wondering about this too! I found the dimensions for west tower in mccormick but none for east tower...

Use the floorplans link, and go to "Room Inventory".

Does anyone know if these figures are accurate? The EC coffin single I was placed in looks like it should be a lot smaller than the 144 square feet it's listed as. But maybe the maps are deceptive.

@eisensteinprime,

I have the dimensions of my room. What is the normal range for area of a double? Triple? Quad?

Thanks!

Thanks, Eisensteinprime. That did it!
