how to get a single dorm room as a freshment at uga

<p>i would like to get a single room for my freshment year at UGA. Also i much more would it cost, and would fasfa pay for it. give me the cons and pros of having single room at UGA</p>

<p>I suppose you apply for that when you send your housing application and deposit. A single room costs significantly more, and the prices are listed on the UGA Housing web page, along with much more useful information for interested, curious students. </p>

<p>“would fafsa pay for it” ? Do you mean will financial aid cover housing? Maybe, but very hard to say generally. If you are applying to college, you should know there is a very long journey between FAFSA and paying for housing, or anything else. What concept do you have of what FAFSA is?</p>

<p>Since you wrote it twice, it’s “freshman” or “freshmen”. Proofread your apps carefully.</p>

<p>If you check the housing website, you could find information about cost differences ([UGA</a> housing: Rates & amenities](<a href=“University Housing – Student Affairs”>University Housing – Student Affairs)). If your type of financial aid will pay for housing, it’ll pay for whatever on-campus housing you get, regardless of whether it’s a single or double room. </p>

<p>Honestly though, I would reconsider getting a rooommate. You’re a freshman! It’s part of the experience. You could make a friend! UGA has this roommate matching service, dawghouse (<a href=“https://www.housing.uga.edu/secure/dawghouse/index.php[/url]”>https://www.housing.uga.edu/secure/dawghouse/index.php&lt;/a&gt;). You can look for people who you think will do well with you and talk with them some. If you find someone you like, you can request that person. That’s how I found my freshman roommate, and it worked out great. We’re still friends.</p>

<p>The chances of you getting a single room is very slim though. You could either do East Campus Village, where you’ll have your own room, but share an apartment sort of place, or you’ll be in Oglethorpe House (more commonly referred to as Ohouse). Getting a single room in Ohouse is HARD and usually goes to non-freshman students who have acquired UGA credits. </p>

<p>Pros for having your own room would be noise control…privacy…</p>

<p>It’s your choice. Personally, I think it would’ve been really lonely to not have a roommate.</p>
