I’m sorry, that sounds like a really crappy situation. I doubt they’d be jerking you around if they knew what was going on though… it would be better if they just told you up-front that they don’t know when they’ll have an answer, but I’m sure they’d give you the information if they had it. Thing is, they’ll probably never tell you flat out that there’s no chance of you getting housing–there’s always a chance that more people will drop out, more people will live off campus, and people higher up on the waiting list than you are will pass up the housing they’re offered, even if it’s not likely.

Hopefully, you have an alternate plan for where to live if campus housing doesn’t pan out, since at this point I definitely wouldn’t be counting on it.
