For those who've had a S or D just finish their first (or later) semester living on-campus:
What kind of arrangement did they have (traditional, suite, single/double/triple/quad, newer or older building) and how happy were they with their dorm overall? Things they liked or disliked that couldn't have been predicted when they moved in? Things you as a parent were impressed or disappointed with?
Was it a school that guarantees residence hall capacity for 2, 3, or 4 years, or were dorm availability and choice tight and competitive? Were/are they in an LLP? Do they have imminent plans to move off campus?
We'll probably be in the thick of this in a couple of months. With 9 schools in play (probably 5 or 6 seriously) and all the RH choices at each, there are an awful lot of permutations, especially taking Honors and other LLP's into account. I envision we'll very likely be putting down more than one housing deposit waiting for final aid packages (interested in your experiences with that process as well). So I feel like this is a good time to gather insights.
Thanks in advance!
