They all have their ups and downs, the ones around Farrand field are prob the best because they're so central, but I live in Smith in Kitt and its not bad once you get used to it.

Real good choices.  Honestly, I live in Kitt and it sucks, you end up wasting so much more time walking everywhere.  The walk from my dorm (buck) to the hill is usually more than 20 minutes.  If I could go back to applying for rooming I would for sure have chosen Libby, Baker, Farrand, or Cheyenne Arapahoe.

At this point you are kinda fucked for good dorms... I got in Farrand last year and applied for housing in October... Almost May and my bet is on Willville. Try for farrand, libby, chey ho, baker. Then sewall, kitt or even engineering quad

I got stuck in the engineering dorms, but the dorm i spent the most time in partying was definitely baker as a freshman

Libby, Baker, Farrand, Chey Ho

Farrands the shit pretty much and has bigger rooms than libby and chey-ho, its probably bigger than baker but there rooms arent that small either.

willard. at this point, you probably wont be able to get into farrand, baker, or libby so put willard as your first choice if you want to be somewhere around farrand field.

FARRAND FTW.

sewall is also really sick in my opinion, you're closer to the hill but kind of further away from everything on campus. willard, baker, cheyho, all of those are good choices man. and willville is far as fuck, but its a blast, so many kids raging on the reg.
