When you come here to visit, make sure you talk to the Honors College and talk to a pre law advisor. I think that would help you out so much, as far as figuring out classes you’ll have to take and what will transfer for what.

I really don’t know a lot about sorority recruitment other than you come a week early and go through rush week, visit all the houses, go to exchanges, make your bids, then they make theirs and do the whole match thing, I think. I’m not really sure…

Olympia is amazing, except the location is a little far and it’s the most expensive. And yes, you’re right. You really do have to sign up for it early because that’s where a lot of people want to live. Streit-Perham has the reputation of being the rowdiest hall on campus because it’s basically 50% Greek and 50% athletes, but it is a lot of fun to live there. You get the full college experience, especially your first year in a residence hall. I would definitely suggest SP. Gannon/Golds I would personally stay away from. It’s rowdy in a different way–people there are very eclectic and just…unique…I guess. Don’t really know a lot about Scott-Coman, but I hear the rooms are pretty big. Rooms at Orton are by far the biggest on campus. The community is fun, but the people are all older. Stephenson is the STEM building, so a lot of math and science freshmen. It’s a fun building too. Orton has the least amount of craziness (not a lot of conduct and is quieter). All the others are pretty much freshmen halls.
