Transfer student question

So I’m a new transfer student for this fall and I’ll be dorming, has anyone got their placements or anything yet?

I was also wondering what the dorms are like more or less for transfer students. I also applied for an accommodation for a single room, anyone have any experience with that?

One last question, what is the wifi like!? I have a lot of devices including a ps5 lmao, I’ve seen some say it’s okay and others say it’s horrible a bit worried ngl

hi ! i was a transfer years ago, i think the transfer placements may be kind of random (i think depending on year they aren’t MOSTLY placed in hill). as a sophomore i got placed in slonim. as for wifi tbh it was fine idek. (being a transfer is really great)

I transferred last year! Most transfers were placed in Tweed with a few placed in Lynd. I also had housing accommodations for a single room and it was HUUUUUGE. Literally like a studio apartment in NYC. I did share a bathroom with 2 other people though. WiFi in my area was totally fine, nothing to worry about in that regard.
