Tips in securing a dorm room?

Question

I would have dormed this year but I got my acceptance letter late and by that time, all dorms were filled. I'm transferring to a closer school but I need to dorm there. What are some tips where I can secure a dorm when I do transfer? Thanks!

Answer 1

Talk to the housing administration at the school.  They'll let you know if there's any way to get a room.  Other than that, I don't think there are any "tricks".  Mine was first come, first serve, I think.
