Residence Confused
I am looking for residence and prices

I didnt see mcmasters before so i am a bit worried

I say my friends res in brock

they have a house with 4 bedrooms a living room 2 bathrooms and a kitchen

Is the quad room like that??


I dont want to share a bedroom with any one but i dont mind having the same house with new people for first year.

Can some one explain to me because I saw another post where some one said that they had to share a room with some one which i really dislike

Thanks for your help

If you don't want to share a room with anyone, Keyes residence is your best option, but you may or may not get it. It's also the most expensive.

I replied to your other thread as well, and honestly, all things considered, I think you're better off living off campus. Rent a room in a student house, get your own room, space in a fridge, etc etc

Youre better off looking for student housing. Only 2 residences have apartment style (ie personal bedrooms and shared living room/kitchen), and residence spots are given via lottery.

Having enough rooms to house every single prospective student at a school is costly. Schools get money from the government as well as tuition collected from students, and if single rooms were the case, some sort of price would have to go up. Taxes, or tuition. Neither would make anyone happy.

Quad, I'm pretty sure, is 4 people per apartment suite. Single rooms.

And stop complaining, Mac has some nice residences compared to other schools. Have you seen Queens? Prison cells.

Yes, single rooms.
ONE person per room.
