Also, talk about why you chose that particular school. When tour guides do this on tours, it makes it much more real for me and I tend to like the school more.

Mathmom, So funny about housing. My husband was in Donner at Carnegie Mellon in 1973-75. Not great then, hope it has improved! Met him in 1974 so
didn't keep me from marrying him though.

I don't know what the rooms at Donner are like, but my son is in one of the apartment buildings and his rooms were huge. Large living room, large bedroom, full kitchen and full bath shared with just one other kid. Ever so much nicer than any room he ever saw on any tour.
