Though I completely understand your disappointment of not being able to experience dorm living, I think you’ll come to appreciate Stony Island for what it is (it’s quite nice), and you’ll be able to meet people through classes, activities, etc.

Housing was really overloaded this year. They took the upperclassmen quota off of Max P, and as a result, a lot of upperclassmen decided to stay in Max. Again, with the overenrollment, a lot of first-years were placed in Blackstone, which, in the past, was not a first-year dorm. Chicago housing was pretty desperate this year-- you’re not the only one who’s unhappy with the housing situation.

Give yourself a few weeks to adjust before you decide you dislike it, though.
