<p>I’m old.</p>
<p>1) Some are close enough to the academic side of campus to pick up a signal, and there’s usually somebody with an unsecured connection (DON’T USE THESE THOUGH) in the dorm. Unless you get a wireless router you’ll be plugging in though.</p>
<p>2) Like albert said, they don’t all have AC. The only one that freshman can really get in to that does is if you’re in the RLC. If you get the two box fans and keep your door open when you’re in the room it’s not that bad though. After the first month or so it cools down and isn’t bad at all. Orientation can be brutal though.</p>
<p>3) Get the minor flex plan. You can add money later if you need to. It and the major are your only options if you live on campus (and yes you have to buy one) and the only difference is the major is more money. Which like I said you can add later.</p>
<p>4) For freshman mostly random. If you’ve got a doctors note for allergies you can get into one of the AC ones, and if you’re in a housing program you get put there. After your freshman year there’s some sort of lottery where you get a housing number, and people (in a roundabout sort of way) get to pick based on that number. Get a good number and you can probably get a good dorm, get a really bad number and you might not get one.</p>
<p>Also, you should be excited. Very excited.</p>
