UCLA Housing Application Form Question

College Life
1

<p>I have found this question asked in the forums - but no one seems to be able to answer it?</p>

<p>On the UCLA Housing Application form - where you prioritize your choices for “Room Type Preference” … what is the difference between “Single Room (One Occupant)” and “Single Room, Shared Bath” it’s the same for double and triple as well.</p>

<p>My son is wanted to get into the Single suites in the Residential PLAZAs (10 single rooms sharing 2 bathrooms)… what would he choose? Single Room (One Occupant), or Single Room, Shared Bath?</p>

<p>It’s very confusing :(</p>

<p>Thank you for any help/insight</p>

<p>I’m having the same issue. I don’t know what any of this terminology means! Someone help! I’m a high school senior applying for UCLA housing.</p>

<p>Housing Questions:</p>

<p>When ranking your options, can you repeat an option more than once?</p>

<p>(ex: Residential Hall
Residential Hall
Residential Hall)</p>

<p>What is the difference between Single Room (Single Occupant) and Single Room (Shared Bath)?</p>

<p>What are the conditions of the shared bathrooms? How many people share them? Are they good/bad?</p>

<p>Are Residential Halls really cramped if you choose to room in a double or triple room?</p>

<p>Where do most freshmen room? If you choose to room in a Residential Plaza or Suite will there be fewer freshmen?</p>

<p>Is it best to room with a friend in the first year? </p>

<p>What should you choose as your Housing Assignment Preference if you do not have a roommate in mind?</p>

<p>Has anyone had experience with the “Theme Communities”? What are they like?</p>

<p>Dining Questions:</p>

<p>What is the difference between the Premier 14 and Blue 14 meal plans?</p>

<p>If you can answer any of my questions that would be of great help.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I have no idea either. I put this:</p>

<p>Rank in order the facility type in which you would most like to live.

  1. VP
  2. CBAPT
  3. SUITE </p>

<p>Room Type Preference
Rank in order the room type in which you would most like to live.

  1. Single
  2. Single, Shared Bath
  3. TWO BEDROOM/TWO PERSONS
  4. THREE BEDROOM/THREE PERSONS
  5. TWO BEDROOM/THREE PERSONS
  6. STUDIO/ONE PERSON </p>

<p>Can anyone explain what I chose? Any downfalls? Comments? Thanks!
Most importantly, I just want my own room =P</p>

<p>This probably belongs in the UCLA forum…if no one there can answer it, it’s time to make a phone call.</p>

<p>Isn’t it obvious? It literally explains itself by its description. I can see UCLA being very difficult for you guys. Can’t even put the post in the proper forum let alone understand the concept of sharing a bathroom.</p>

<p>This might sound like a crazy idea, but you could try calling the housing department at UCLA and asking them your question.</p>

<p>Crazy idea, I know…</p>

<p>I also aggro with that suggedon.</p>

<p>Especially for the people that posted the question AFTER a link to the UCLA forum was provided. In fact the link was to the UCLA forum’s Housing FAQ thread. How much better than that can you get?</p>
