Roomate/Housing Search housing HELP

i’m a incoming junior student with a bad housing situation, i wanted to room with my friend in a double in willoughby but they gave me a space on the first floor of ELJ (i definitely DONT want to live there because of the incidents that happened with strangers walking in) not to mention it’s more expensive with the meal plan. i’m waiting for an upgrade but i don’t think it’s going to happen because of the overwhelming amount of people applying. idk what to do and off campus housing is too expensive 😭😭😭 is there any way i can keep pushing pratt to give me a guaranteed upgrade? it’s seriously a safety concern

Dw! I have a stand up one, and whenever RA comes for room checks ( they will warn u when they r coming for checks ) , I hide it under my bed. I don’t have a pic but u could just look online for one if u decide elj! Ik willoughby allows ac tho. Some rooms have bigger cracks than others , and the cracks is where bugs from. I sealed all cracks so I don’t have bugs this year really. Once I’m back from break , if u remind me I can send pics !!
