<p>You basically have to put the residential program first or they won’t consider you most people can get into the residential program if you write a decent essay. Sometimes they expand a program to accom. more people, not always though.
I forgot who asked about Gregory but I’ve lived here for two years and I love it, I’m in the class of 25’ building in Casa Hispanica(MLP program) I really like it people are nice and fairly social, but its not too loud most of the time. Plus during finals there is a policy in the whole school actually, that keeps it quiet, but in Gregory our house dean actually makes sure its quiet(no loud music, running down halls etc.) oh and the reason people haven’t mentioned gregory is because its small relatively speaking and its a well kept secret, if you live here you tell people that its great but people usually don’t listen. But hey, more room for my friends. One more benefit of gregory(and some others) is the ability to keep your room and/or apply for other rooms in Gregory before all other upperclassmen, basically we get the best rooms and can choose exactly which room you want, for example I live on the first floor this year right next to two of my friends. Its nice, I like it obviously,and I would suggest Gregory to anyone especially if you want your own room and bathroom and/or quiet when you need to study(not weekend nights though) Sorry for the lengthy reply hope it helps.</p>
