quesojust replied to your post: Does anyone know it there is room in CTC for a futon, either with a normal height or lofted bed? I know that the rooms are about 10 by 12 but im not sure how its laid out, where the doors are etc. thanks!
You might be able to squeeze a futon in with an unlofted bed if youre clever about some other stuff, but you can easily fit it with a lofted bed (which is totally allowed)

The beds are loftable, but unless you have a corner room, its not really feasible to have a futon.

I definitely don’t think there’s room to have one with a non-lofted bed (and I’m not sure you’re allowed to loft the beds?) Between the closet, bed, and desk you don’t have a whole lot of extra space.
So I am about to submit my housing application as an incoming freshman. I have no idea how housing works? I want to be a part of an LC, but I really want to live in Northwest! I am a science major and where most of the LC's are (Alumni) are way too far from the science buildings! I am in love with Northwest. But my question is, do we also have pick-times like the sophomore, juniors? I just wanna know what my chance of getting into Northwest is? And if I am able to even pick?

As a freshman, you don’t get to pick where you live unless you specify a preference for a LC. So you could end up in Northwest, but it’s really sort of just random where you’ll end up.
Hi! So I'll be an incoming freshman in the fall and was wondering which LC to choose. I can't decide between Leadership and Global so, in your opinion, which is the better overall? Also, Leadership LC is in Eddie while Global House is in McMahon, which is a better living environment? Thank you!

I can’t tell you which one to pick, it really depends on your own interests and needs, so I would suggest trying to get in touch with people from those LC’s if you want information about them.
That being said, I know a lot of kids from Leadership Learning Community and they’re all top notch kids at UConn, winning awards and doing really great work. So if you’re prepared to dive in and get involved and be a leader on a large scale, and excellence and standing out is what you want to get out of college, Leadership is what I’d go with.
Do you know anything about the ecohouse at uconn? I'm a freshman signing up for housing and I think I want to go for that. Thanks!
what kind of people are in towers?

mostly underclassen. some freshmen, a lot of sophomores. a few unlucky juniors with bad pick times.
Hi I don't know if people are still asking questions about corner rooms in west, but... I live there now and I know that you cannot choose a corner room. They go to the ra's. It just changed this year so even if you've had friends who lived in west corner rooms in the past, they aren't available anymore. The end rooms (01 or 02) seem bigger because of the closets and they are a bit better because you can arrange your furniture differently (you don't have to loft your bed to have actual space)
To the person who said that west corner rooms end in 01 I just wanted to send a correction. I lived in west once before and the rooms ending in 01 are simply end rooms, they are a bit larger than the other rooms but are NO where near the size of the corner rooms.Unfortunately I don't know the number for the real corner room. Good luck!!

^ and there you have it.
To the person asking about West corner rooms - they end in 01 (201B, 201A, etc.)
