I understand that getting your first choice of residence is a lottery system. However, this video is to help you choose your residence ranking order. This video talks about things you can only experience first hand, things that the western housing website doesn't really tell you. Enjoy!

"Personal microwave" 😅omg in Germany our single dorms have a stove, fridge, etc. and a washroom which only you can use (about 300€ per month). If you want to have a room mate, you'll both have your own rooms with beds, tables etc. and shared washrooms and kitchen with oven, stove, fridge, etc (you can even share one huge dorm with 7 others)(about 250€ per month)👌🏻👌🏻
I can tell u did research on this. Thank you so very much. This was a very informative video. Also, if I do end up going to Western I would like to party yes but to have noisy people where I live is jut not it. I prefer to walk all the way to the other side of campus for a party instead of living where parties are so I'll take the Elgin Hall.
The legend is back 👀🤧
holy shit the intro is so good.
So helpful! Thank you!
How does this video have so few likes?? So informative!!
I‘ve lived in Perth for the past two years and it really depends on what people are there- most importantly the Soph teams. My first year, it was literally a ghostown, nothing ever happened, not even foco. I was on the Soph team this past year and I have to say, this set of Sophs definitely changed the reputation of Perth for the most part, but it is still relatively quiet so you can mostly get some sleep 😂 Also Perth’s food is awful
im going there in the fall 🥲
@@alex-ln2ut r u here at Perth rn?
Do a video on your gpa and how u could’ve improved and what you did best
Can you explain about intramural sports and how to get in soccer team as an international student
is there any way I can get a kitchen while in delaware? bc i really wanna stay close to nursing students and i love how its close to everything
for the halls whose snack bars closed were open 8 to 11, were they also open before that? or ONLY from 8 to 11?
also tysmmm for this video!!!
Thank you
what's about the sports team people? where they live?
does ohall have a lot of
parties? I’m a really social persona me i’ve been assigned there lol
How about Ph.D. accommodations?
I personally choose Essex hall
I want to choose MEng Electrical. I am just fulfilling the uni requirements. What are chance of acceptance?
I didn't see any Social Science floor on the list I'd you know what I mean
Does Alumni house have single rooms?
Hai Jay, thank you so much for your explanation about Western's residence. I have a question for you, my question is the price listed on the website is paid in how many periods? per semester or year or even per month? thank you very much.
hii, do you have an answer to that question?
were you an international student, joining western?
do they not offer cleaners to clean rooms anymore? T_T I checked the website again and it didn't have it on the list
probably covid restriction?
I have a question! in your dorms isn't their a bathroom that everyone on your floor has to share?
Nope, sharing a bathroom everyone on your floor is with traditional style. In Elgin hall, it was a suite style so you only share it with your roommate.
do any of the halls have halal food?
how many residencies do you have to rank for your choices?? i have a top 3 rn but wondering if i should plan more?
you just pick your three top residences in order when applying!
Lmao “not that much goes on at Elgin hall”
Ok coming to think about it, maybe a bit... until it gets shut down lol
How do you get the money to pay all that?
Blij Essex hall is 10400 $ for single room
is the recreation center included in the residence cost? if not how do I get access to it?
Yes it is
Elgin Hall is where it's at
He's one of us !! :)
Ok so does Ontario hall offer suit style rooms? I apologize if you already answered this
Nope, Ontario hall is all hybrid style. It’s similar to suite styles but your roommate is in the same room as you
Do you have to pay more for certain residents
traditional is cheapest, with hybrid coming next then suite style costing the most
Is there any options where you can stay with one other roommate while having separate washrooms but shared living space?
Can u pick your roommate like your friend??
Yes you can
Thx u
what a video
Can a guy aandgirl live together in a suite style or hybrid room ?
Yes, but it’s not super common
Either way you can request all same gender room.
Hi. I am from India. I have a predicted score between 89-91. What are the chances that I would get into Western.
It depends on the program you want to enroll in and your prerequisites
my average was below 86 and i still got in for comp sci
My soph knows you 👀
Oh nice, who?
