I personally plan on Colonnades or Global. This was posted on the Elon18 facebook group by a current student. Very insightful:

"Colonnades A and B: About 6 years old. Mostly upperclassmen. All singles with private bath or 4 person suites where each person has their own bedroom and there are 2 bathrooms and a common room for those 4 people

Colonnades C, D, E: About 3 years old. Mainly Freshman for the jack and jill style rooms(2 doubles sharing a bathroom) and mainly upperclassmen for the singles and then there are 2 person pods for sophomores mainly where 2 people have 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and a common room.

Global Village: New. Double jack and jill style(see above) for freshman, singles for upperclassmen, 2 person pods(see above) for sophomores.

Sloan: Historic. Mostly freshman in jack and jill style rooms with a single on most floors for the RAs.

Virginia:Historic. Mostly freshman in jack and jill style rooms with a single on most floors for the RAs.

HBB: Historic. 6-8 person suites where there are 3-4 double rooms and one bathroom(with multiple toilets and 1-2 showers) shared with all persons in suite. Almost all freshman.

Carolina: Historic. All Girls. Double rooms with a hall bathroom on each floor. Almost all freshman.

West: Oldest building on campus. All Girls. Said to be haunted. Jack and jill style. Almost all freshman.

Smith: Historic. All Boys. Double rooms with a hall bathroom on each floor. Almost all freshman and usually one floor with only football players.

Danieley Center: Dr. Danieley will greet you when you come to check in. 6-10 person suites with 3-5 double rooms, 2-4 bathrooms, and a kitchen for all to share.

The following have common rooms, computers and printers, and kitchens on each floor for all residents: Colonnades ABCDE, Global 12345, Danieley(no computers or kitchen but yes common room).

Smith, Carolina, and Sloan do not have any common rooms.

West and Virginia share a common room as they are connected.

Oaks, Mill Point, and Danieley Apartments as well as Crest apartments are almost always exclusively for Juniors and Seniors."
