1. Figure out what sort of room you want to live in (single, double, triple, quad, or apartment style)
- Miami offers a bunch of great options which make living on campus sophomore year hassle free. If you are in a sorority or fraternity you live in the sorority dorms or in the fraternity house. If you are not Greek you have your choice of living in the dorms or there are Heritage Commons which are apartment style on campus living.
2. Pick a roommate/roommates
- By this time in your freshman year you will have met so many people! I'm so excited to live with my roommate next year. Kori and I get along so well, and we can't wait to be rooming together. She lives in a different dorm, but since we've met we have spent so much time together... it is going to be so nice to have her sitting on the bed right next to mine!
3. Sign online on a specific day to receive your lottery number
- We were sent an e-mail reminder to sign onto our mymiami page between April 5 and April 9 and "pop a balloon" to receive our lottery number.
4. On the day of room assigning sign in at your time and bid on your room
- Room assigning day was April 14, and the time that we received from popping our balloon was the time we could sign online and pick a room. Kori and I spent an entire day walking around campus to all the different dorms to check out the room layouts. It was really nice that we have the option to choose which dorm we wanted to live in. Watch out sophomore year here we come!!!
Hey! So I just found your blog from a random Google search and it's been really helpful reading it! I'm going to Miami next year so it's a little overwhelming.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember if you said, but I was wondering what LLC you're in? It's getting down to the wire for those selections so if you have any advice about that (which are the party ones, which are chill, stuff like that), it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
