It depends what you mean by best, thats always subjective and debatable. The cheapest places to live are Apollo and Libra, both freshman only communities. However, the chances of getting individual rooms are small, as Apollo only offers them in 5 person suites(the other 4 people split 2 double rooms) and Libra has none at all. Neither of these residence halls have kitchens. Kitchens, good person to bathroom ratio, and individual rooms are what make towers worthwhile and most of the honors kids live there so you can see them and hang out with them more often. I live in Apollo because Towers is pretty expensive. A suggestion I'll offer is looking into Lake Claire. Its freshmen only but actually has a kitchen, living room, and individual rooms like Towers. It just isnt as new or nice looking but dont me wrong, its still pretty nice lol. Its also cheaper. Next year I'll be moving to Nike or Hercules, they also offer the same set up as Lake Claire and Towers but only to upperclassmen. Hope some of this helped and hope I didnt confuse you.
P.S: dont worry about applying JUST yet. You may wanna wait to see if you get into honors which shouldnt take too long. I applied for housing in Feb. and got my first choice! I dont know if that was because most other people applied later and wanted other housing, or because honors gets some sort of priority. I think they try to give priority to freshmen for most housing if they can.
