<p>Since none of us on CC set the prices for housing, you probably will not get satisfaction here. The assoc vice chancellor that handles housing might have someone who can answer your questions with more details.

<p>However, I am a bit confused by your last post. In your OP, you list the minisuite triple at 13800 and the regular suite triple at 15300. That would make the regular suite cost higher than minisuite. As I look over the fee chart, it seems that a regular suite is $1,500 more than the same room type in a minisuite. Seems pretty consistent. Double in mini = 15495 + 1500 = double in reg suite of 16995. Triple in mini = 13800 + 1500 = triple in reg suite of 15300. Single in minisuite at 15775 + 1500 = 17225 but actually the reg suite single is a slightly cheaper at 17200. </p>
<p>Since Clark Kerr rooms (single, double and triple) are more than the other dorms, the charge seems related to the average size of the room type which is bigger at CK. One might presume that the regular suites are more expensive than minisuites due to being larger. That would also be consistent with the naming of the cheaper types as ‘mini’ suites.</p>
