背景一般~第一个offer~Advisor和方向都很match，和面试的professor很投机，TOEFL硬伤还给了fellowship，决定就不等其他的了~~目前在为housing发愁，诚征室友~~不然回不了offer会让advisor感觉奇怪的…………

方向Information theory。估计是SOP的问题，找我的几个导师中有几个是statistical inference and machine learning的……但个人感觉更喜欢abstract algebra，所以高高兴兴的去做coding...IC方向大神不要紧张……

另外，LA是advisor向委员会推荐学生。Advisor非常满意，所以financial aid和offer都很早来了。大神们没有收到offer不要紧张，应该没这么早，现在可以多联系教授~~

嗯……如果地里有LA前辈，了解传说中的ESLPE的，跪求提供信息~~

求问LZ大神知不知道offer里面那个department guaranteed housing slot怎么回事...什么信息都不说就说有这个 ...

我当时问那边实验室的师姐是这么说的：
The contracts for the university graduate apartments are just for one academic year or summer quarters. It means that when you accept this offer, the start of your contract will be about mid September and it will be ended after the spring quarters After ending your contract, you can renew it if you like and you will be the most eligible person for having your apartment again. Actually, I think they will guarantee that you can stay at your apartment up to at least 3 years if you like, but you can move out when your contracts ends.

These apartments are available during vacations. Officially, they are considered off-campus housings not dorms.

There is an option in housing application that gives you the ability to choose your roommate. For this purpose, you and the person that you want to be roommate with should apply and mention each other as desired roommate. If you apply for a 2-bedroom apartment and you don't mention any special roommate, they will randomly assign a roommate to you.

offer给的link里可以看graduate能住的房子的type和价格，一般好像是Weyburn Terrace的2人间，去年价格差不多是1200~1300刀，比校外贵一些，比较小，但是装修好了，家具空调都有，两个房间各自带洗漱间，有客厅厨房餐厅。网站上有平面图和实物图。问了那边的中国master学姐，她住的就是Weyburn Terrace2层的那种，说还不错，所以我回offer勾了那一项，室友准备再找……应该是要后续自己申请吧……我想…………

PS：层主是UCLA PhD吗？如果决定accept的话加我微信“prisca15652771572”吧，后续注册什么的问题都可以互相讨论~~~

多谢LZ大大的信息，虽然感觉需要做的还是很混乱...（我也看了housing的website，感觉好贵...每个月都不剩多少了...）2层的是指townhouse吗？

是PhD，很心水LA而且导师人很nice准备接，但是很担心prelim因为听说本track挂人率蛮高...估计一两个星期内做决定吧，如果接了联系你好讨论接下来怎么做...感觉他家信息好乱...

好像差不多50%，心慌慌...有没有用大概问小米就知道？只是他家小米答复巨慢...之前问的等了小一个月才回 ...

嗯嗯……都问了问，毕竟这种情况太少，想多方面问一下多了解情况……层主觉得小米慢的话，问offer里指定的Office of Student Affairs的Manager，回复还蛮快的……或者问问你的advisor和group里的Ph.D.~~

厉害厉害，沾沾喜气
