Housing question - How many people per time slot?

I would be really surprised if most students have found roommates. There are always posts from parents indicating that their students have not connected via Facebook or otherwise with other students. Some students do find roommates before thir pick time and date, but I would venture to say that most students do not have a suite of four established before their time slot. As others have said there will be spaces available, perhaps not in his first preference. It is much easier if you are only looking for one space, and are flexible about which building. As I said, he is guaranteed housing. Some students want to live in the brand new Presidential Village building (phase one). Some upperclassmen might choose to live in that building because it is their last year on campus or because they don’t care if they remain in honors housing. When the second phase of Presidential Village opens with the new rec center and food venue, I am sure that students will be flocking there to live. It will be a nice setup. Who knows, maybe they will designte that as honors housing in the future. It seems like the newer buildings get that designation. Phase two is scheduled to open in fall 2015. The structural supports are already going up for that building.

Don’t worry.
