[@aliyakhalid5486]

I didn’t know that a room tour could be justified to last this long and yet, it was like a story unfolding bit by bit. I love how you have added plants all over; it just gives that nature pop, not to mention the green is so refreshing. Also, the creative bits are amazing. Last but not least, the humour bits were more than enjoyable.

Anoushka Mukherjee which one is the best to stay among all ?

[@anoushkamukherjee4470]

@@shantosardar2131 i love the community that vanier has, but they've got really thin walls, so that can be an issue sometimes. Totem is probably in between, they've got similar room designs are OC, but it depends on which building you get. I lived in Orchard, and got very lucky with the relationship I had with my floormates and roommate.

YAY!! so you actually can’t lock it from ur room, but honestly i haven’t heard of it being any problem for anyone!! just establish boundaries w your roommate :))

Hi! Love your room. I was wondering if there is a lock to the bathroom (whether or not my roommate could just enter inside my legit room). And when did you apply for your housing? After you got accepted to UBC? Thank you

[@chaddhennig]

hey jennie💛💛 tysm! there actually isn’t a way to lock out your roommate, but i haven’t heard of any situations where anyone has had problems with this. basically if your door is closed you just knock or say their name. and no i actually applied for housing around this time last year!

Gotcha Gurl i really loved orchard!!! both are amazing though :))

[@cadderly3997]

Hi!! So I applied to UBC (and I really hope I get in 😣🤞🏻) and was just wondering about all the rooms and the buildings!! Any info about any of them would help me a lot- location, roommates, utilities..... anything! Thank you :)

[@chaddhennig]

Hey! (I really hope you get in too!) There are 4 first year residences: totem park, orchard commons, place vanier, and ritsumeikan house. All of them except place vanier are very near to each other, but honestly the walk isn’t too bad no matter where you live. Also, all of them except for ritsumeikan house have a meal plan, so you don’t have to worry about making food. My room type is single-connected (and i think it’s the best type haha!). In the future I’ll make videos doing a tour of each of the residences and their amenities, and also what room types they have!

[@cadderly3997]

4ever awesome! I’m so excited! Thank u for replying and I love ur channel and videos :)

[@justinm.1]

Is Orchard the most expensive dorm there??? That’s what I heard but I could be completely wrong

[@chaddhennig]

for first year, i’m pretty sure it is? might be close to some totem residences too!

[@rospar]

if you dont mind me asking, how much does it cost, is that price including the meal plan, & can you stay during summer/during the off term? tysm :))

[@chaddhennig]

depending on the room, it costs between $9000 and $11,000. also you can stay during summer but it’s a separate application!!

[@Olivia-cl6ww]

when u apply to get a dorm do u get to chose which building? i wanna go to ubc and if i get in i really wanna live in the orchard commons :)

[@chaddhennig]

sadly no!!😭but hopefully it all works out well!! wherever you end up, just know that it ultimately is for the best and will bring you opportunities that you otherwise wouldn’t have had !🤍🤍

[@elliotblack6922]

was this type of room your first choice? how unlikely is it for a first year to not get their first choice?

[@chaddhennig]

hey!! yeah this was my first choice :)) i just did some (very rough) calculations, and if everyone picked this room as the first choice, then there is a minimum 23% chance of getting it. so basically it’s a greater than 23% chance since people will put other options as their first choice. sending an email to housing may also improve your odds! just say like why you want the specific room type:)) hope this helps!!!
