Thanks for all the info you guys have given me so far! It has really helped!

I’m finalizing my housing app, and I was wondering:

Is living in Dean’s Halls worth it? Is there really a sense of community, more opportunities, and more overall benefits? Is there a social scene? I mean, I don’t want anything too crazy, but I need to socialize and make friends and just take a break from studying sometimes. I want to find a nice balance between studying and socializing.

If I decide to apply for Dean’s Halls, would you recommend Trojan or Marks? Which is nicer, quieter, farther from the street, etc?

Finally, I’m still thinking of Parkside. Is it really that “international?” I enjoy learning about new cultures and meeting new people, but is every day and everyone’s life revolving around the international aspect?

Also, I know that Parkside people can’t have the dining dollars meal plan. So, what do you do for the rest of your meals? Is that really a major problem?

Has anyone had any postive or negative experiences with suite living, whether it’s with 5 or 8 people?

Thank you for continuing to help!
