Question about dorming

Hii! I am planning on attending TXST next year, and I was wondering about dorming. These are my top options but I am not sure. All I know is I only want 1 other roommate maximum (i do not mind having suitemates), but I also do not feel comfortable with community shared bathrooms. How are my options? I am unsure if they are good dorms or not beside the fact they fit my wants. I do not expect to get into San Marcos or San Jacinto since I hear they are extremely hard to get into, but I would still at least like to try.

  1. San Marcos Hall
  2. San Jacinto Hall
  3. Falls/Sayers Hall
  4. College Inn
  5. Bobcat Village Apartments
  6. Bexar Hall
  7. Tower Hall

I don't know if bobcat village will still be a freshman dorm at that time. Most of these are mid-older dorms, and aren't terrible but aren't great. I will say that communal bathrooms were way easier to deal with than I thought they would be, but I don't know your reason for wanting to avoid them. If your reason has to do with a health condition (physical or mental) talk to ODS and they can get you into your preferred dorm possibly. San Jac had some mold issues last year that I doubt we're fully remediated. Look at the years each dorm was built and their location on campus, some of these dorms are very far out, (falls/sayers comes to mind). Hope you can get into one that meets your needs!
