can you guys share a bit about why PENN? congratulations again! 🙂
I am from New Jersey(South Jersey right near Atlantic City to be exact). I've lived in Philly the last 4 years because I am an undergrad at UPenn.
camelion -- i went to boarding school in NJ! do you like philly?
What boarding school? I love Philly. Depending on what your interests are there something here for you. If you have any specific questions about Philly email me and I will answer them for you.
I went to Lawrenceville.. which is very near Princeton. I'll email you soon.. I do have lots of questions.
Hey guys,.....

camelion1:
I find it comforting that you went to Penn for undergrad and are choosing to stay there for prof school. Did you get any insight into the dental program while you were there?
mrembo:
So how long have you been in philly?

If you go to the website <a href="http://www.upenn.edu" target="_blank">www.upenn.edu</a> then follow campus life to housing and related services you will find all the housing info you will need to find a place.
Stargirl when did you interview at Penn?
Stargirl I interviewed February 1 and found out on the 13th. So you should be hearing soon.

DENTAL HOUSE vs. SANSOM TOWERS?
Thanks for the direction camelion1. Found lots of useful info on housing.
I called the RA at the dental house yesterday, and it didn't sound so bad, although he is biased. $625 for a single with kitchen and private bath. I called the housing office about the Sansom grad towers today and $550 for a shared 2 bed with kitchen and 1 bath including all utilities sounds good too. I just don't know how noisy the floors are going to be and the thought of being assigned a random roommate, well you know...
Anybody else considering these options?

Sanar,
I lived in housing similar to Samson my sophomore year. It's not that bad. But, 1) you don't know who you will be rooming with (kinda like your freshman year in college again), 2) the elevators in these places take forever, 3) the floors could be noisy or smell because of the food of what someone else in your hall is cooking. There are good sides to it too though: 1) you will be able to meet Penn kids easier because of the living situation, 2) you are on campus. Don't live in the Dental House. I haven't really heard many good things about it. If you want I can put you in touch with some of my friends/teammates that live in the Samson(Graduate) towers.
