UCLA Housing Thread

<p>where are you guys looking? will you please post the link? </p>

<p>hmm I’m only living on campus for TSP… for the school year I found a private room / Private bath right near campus. I didn’t want to risk not being able to keep my car. </p>

<p>so which sheets / comfort pack are you talking about?!</p>

<p>You shouldn’t worry since you won’t be living on campus. I think it’s only if you chose to live on campus, since I already accepted my housing offer. Then you get this packet with this information. </p>

<p>Thank goodness I have senior friends with cars…haha!</p>

<p>for sure everyone needs to know someone who has a car ! </p>

<p>Well i’ll be on campus for Tsp and I need a comfort pack! What is included in your comfort pack so I know what to bring/?</p>

<p>I have no idea as I am overseas. My caretaker told me she received it in the mail, but it’s super worth it. The thing with the whole pak is that the sheets and such are the perfect size fit for the beds over there, which is the whole deal I was worrying about. :/</p>

<p>Some things I know are in package (also depends which one you pick, there are three different options):
-Mattress Pad
-2 Pillows
-4 Pillow Cases
-2 Bath Towels
-2 Hand Towels
-2 Washcloths
-Fleece Blanket
-2 different types of sheets.
-Hamper
-Reversible Comforter </p>

<p>There’s more, there’s actually 24 pieces in the biggest plan (which is app. $199), but these are the only things I can think of on the top of my head. =/ I’m sure someone else got the packet and will let you know.</p>

<p>fancy for sure! thanks for messaging me back while you are overseas on vacation! you’ll be at Tsp so see ya there!</p>

<p>Yep yep, no problem! I was also curious to see who else was going to get it, but as I did my own research, it’s very much worth it! </p>

<p>Well I’m out!!! </p>

<p>Oh and see you at TSP, I already found a friend here who will be attending as well! hopefully we’ll bump into each other or something!</p>

<p>yes I am sure I’m sure we’ll all connect the week b4… have a great trip.</p>

<p>i got that thing in the mail too, and i haven’t accepted the housing offer yet. did you already decline it shawneee? the package i got in the mail says that the comforter/sheets are custom made for ucla beds, because the beds are not standard (they aren’t twin, they are some other weird size)</p>

<p>hey so does anyone know if they have events like movie nights or something in the dorms? I really know nothing about it.</p>

<p>They aren’t necessarily custom made, they’re trying to fool you with the whole “Regular Sheets Won’t Fit Our Beds” slogan. You can find twin XL sheets/comforters/etc at all home stores (Target, BB&B, IKEA, Wal Mart, etc), especially now since everyone is dorm shopping. Twin XL is a bit longer than a regular twin sized mattress, but the same width I believe.</p>

<p>@johnny - I think it depends on where you live and the social environment…? I’m not sure. Some buildings and floors have their own weekly gatherings, but some don’t.</p>

<p>No I have not officially declined the offer. I just found my place for the academic year today. </p>

<p>I think I read that regular sheets will fit. </p>

<p>Delta Terrace has their own gatherings- weekly. You can read all about it under the communities here. [UCLA</a> Office of Residential Life - Residential Communities](<a href=“http://www.orl.ucla.edu/communities/]UCLA”>Communities | Residential Life)</p>

<p>I know TSP will have gatherings the weekend prior to classes starting! :)</p>

<p>I accepted my offer for a single (shared bathroom) in Hedrick Summit. Anyone else in Hedrick Summit?</p>
