These dorms are a little farther away from the quad than PAR/FAR. Taft-Van Doren is NOT air-conditioned, while the others are.
Generally very social and close to the fraternities. South: Only Scott, Snyder, and Taft-Van Doren are for freshman Bousfield is mostly for sophomores and above. These dorms are as far away from the quad as PAR/FAR. Barton-Lundgren is NOT air-conditioned, while the others are. North: Only Barton-Lundgren, Hopkins, and Weston are for freshman Nugent and Wassaja are mostly for sophomores and above. PAR: Across from FAR, also about the same age, but doesn't have air conditioning. Does NOT have air conditioning.įAR: Large international community, far away from engineering campus, not bad for Ag/Life Sciences/FAA, good food and nice furniture. LAR: Similar to Busey Evans, but is co-ed. Close to engineering quad, and has the most amount of features in one building. ISR: (Under Construction till Fall 2020) Quiet, nerdy, but you can make it fun AND study. (Currently Evans hall is Co-Ed due to the construction at ISR) Does NOT have air conditioning.īusey-Evans: Quiet, and typically all women. Use this comparison tool to determine which dorm suits you the best based on what features you want.Īllen: Artsy, quirky, semi-loud but decently friendly. There's plenty of diversity inside a dorm, and you'll be sure to at least find someone in your floor that you could be friends with. Need I explain more?ĭISCLAIMER: While each dorm has a different "personality", just because you might not fit in with this overall personality doesn't mean that you should rule it out when picking your dorm, nor should you freak out if you don't get into the dorm you want. Note that "hoverboards" or "swegways" are not allowed on school property because of their tendency to spontaneously explode.unless you want to make 500 enemies for setting off the fire alarm at 3am. Anything that can cause a fire and/or smoke, such as candles, incense, etc.It's nice to have a mini fridge, a microwave and a television/game system in the dorms, but make sure that everyone is okay with sharing these items. Appliances - Talk to your dorm/suite mates ahead of time and determine who already has/is going to bring certain items.Again, no room, and a desk lamp is enough. You won't have room and the dorm chairs are fine if you throw a pillow on it. If you have a mid-lofted bed, and you're a short person, bring a step stool.Don't be the person who leaves all of their stuff in the bathroom and has it thrown out on them. Shower caddy with enough space for whatever you will need in the bathroom/shower.Keeps spills from getting sticky and horrible. Some minor cleaning supplies, such as some Clorox wipes and a roll of paper towel.A small dry erase board or calendar, can be helpful as well as for fun :D.A thick mattress foam pad, a good night's sleep (or nap) is worth it.There is no need to bring a fan if you have AC. If you're living in any of the non-AC halls, a cheap box fan.A desk light, preferably one that is around the 40w incandescent equivalent so that you don't blind your roommate.A cushion for your provided chair (it can be a pillow from home, doesn't have to specifically be for a chair).(Note: the Housing Check List is a pretty good place to start!)
See the Housing page of the Wiki for more information about various housing options on campus.

There’s 1000 people on here, so it's not a great representation. Nor should you ask about some obscure program and expect a large response. Do not post about that (this also generally applies to any conversation you have in UIUC). No one cares about how well you did in high school, your ACT score, or whatever.
