Moving in my dorm as a UTD Freshman!

[@rolakeomi6888]

Hey I am going to utd this fall and I really need an idea of what to pack for my dorm...may you please make a list of necessary things to bring.

[@SejalJannu]

Rolake Omi Hi Rolake, I have a list I made for myself when I was moving in, if you’d like I can dm it to you. My instagram is @sejaljannu

[@rolakeomi6888]

Sejal Jannu thanks so much

[@RainbowDiamond25_MC]

I have stayed in two of the five residential halls. My mind is set on UTD, partly it is close to home! I have stayed on the fourth floor of Residence hall southwest and just recently stayed on the fourth floor of residence hall West! Good luck

[@RainbowDiamond25_MC]

They were for camp, not college. I’m still in high school lol

[@thenerd4229]

Dude. Im going to college in 4yrs. Cannot wait for U.T.D!

[@annoyingb4311]

Annoying B awewh i cant wait

my boi about the move in

[@di9821]

I’m going to UTD this year and I’ve been looking for rugs. Do you mind sharing with where you got yours and maybe the size? That’d help a lot

[@SejalJannu]

hi! it’s from costco, roughly 5x7 in

[@SejalJannu]

it’s from costco, roughly 5x7 feet

[@dong5548]

Where did you get your step stool and rug?

[@SejalJannu]

stool- amazon rug- costco

[@tracywestwood9338]

Hi do you think UTD is a good school for pursuing biology

[@SejalJannu]

yes, ut dallas is actually a really good school for that, a lot of my friends are biology/healthcare studies majors :)

[@HorizonSpeed26]

Ok help. Does the dorm come with a fridge or do I have to order one from Mustang Refridgorators?

[@SejalJannu]

idk about that company but the dorm does not come with a fridge or microwave! you have to talk to your roommates and decide who gets what

[@HorizonSpeed26]

@@SejalJannu Ok Thanks.

[@shielahm5146]

I graduated from UTD a few years ago and this brings back a lot of memories from when I was a freshman :)

[@deboratemesgen9274]

Hey, your video really helped me. I plan on going there and wanted to know do you think the bed would fit if you turned it horizontally against the window.

[@SejalJannu]

yes, I think some people do that, but some of the dorms have different sizing than others

[@ranid2530]

I have a question: what room temperature you choose when you were at utd first year....it will be very helpful.... thanks.

[@ravishsinha2708]

What is the cost per person per month including food..

[@RK2010art]

Can you tell me where you got the big foam alphabets? Thanks.

[@SejalJannu]

They are not foam, they are wood! And I got them from hobby lobby! Hope that helps:)

[@Ohmylantaa]

Are these dorms expensive? I got accepted and I want to live in this style

[@SejalJannu]

they’re roughly around $800 a month but it changes every year:) you are also required to buy a meal plan for the dining hall if you live in the dorms

[@Ohmylantaa]

sejal thank you for your reply, I was so worried about the cost 💛

[@Ohmylantaa]

sejal ohh and one more question lol, can I be in a room like this with random roommates? Like I don’t have to have designated friends? Can it be randomly assigned?

[@SejalJannu]

oh yeah for sure:) but closer to when the new school year starts, a class of ‘24 facebook page will probably be made and you can find roommates on there too but you can do random if you’d like

[@FairyS-h9m]

I took my little sister for the tour she loved UT Dallas.

[@SejalJannu]

it’s a great school!

[@uyamagidiwana6709]

Is UTD one if the most prestigious universities in America

[@SejalJannu]

TANDWA it’s a really good technology school if you’re looking to stay in Texas

[@RainbowDiamond25_MC]

Sejal Jannu yep. My career thought has changed to that. I just completed a camp all on cyber security, hosted by UTD. Obviously I do residency even though I live a good 20 minutes north. I just got the experience of residence hall west, but I know southwest too, cause I have stayed there.

[@shreyachauk8093]

Your room is so pretty! What size is the rug?

[@SejalJannu]

hi! i have no idea but i found it at costco if that helps? ahhh sorry!

[@andie-castillo]

I got accepted into UTD for economics and I’m genuinely excited to attend!

[@SejalJannu]

Aw I’m happy for you! My best friend is an Econ major:))

[@ChevronChic]

which dorm building did you live in? honors?

[@SejalJannu]

Kasey Daisy yes, I lived in Res Hall South which is the honors dorms

[@RainbowDiamond25_MC]

Sejal Jannu I’ve never stayed in South...I have stayed in Southwest and West, but I’m not a college student yet. These stays for me were camps hosted by UTD. Next year I’m doing yet again another one with residency

[@chasecraft9054]

so your gonna be a sophomore on August 2018?

[@SejalJannu]

Chase Craft yess

[@chasecraft9054]

Sejal Jannu I will be a freshman then

[@SejalJannu]

Chase Craft that’s cool!! Welcome to UTD

[@varunpatalay6480]

Best of luck for your freshman year. Although does this mean we get to see less uploads? A house tour would be super cool too!!!

[@SejalJannu]

Haha thank you, I plan to keep up with the videos!

[@uyamagidiwana6709]

Do you share your room with anyone

[@SejalJannu]

TANDWA no, my room is all to myself

[@mariaduran8465]

Uya Magidiwana its like apt with 3 dorms and a single bathroom with just a toilet amd another one with a shower only

[@RainbowDiamond25_MC]

Maria Duran that is true. I know all the dorm buildings, even though I have only stayed in two of them for summer camps
