Mesa 2-Bedrooms - South, Central

I called this morning and was informed that Mesa South is offering to February 2003 applicants and Mesa Central is offering to August 2003 applicants.

Introductions

Hello! I am a new blog for housing updates for the University of California, San Diego's affiliated housing! This blog is created by a PhD student at UCSD in Bioengineering. The idea is that whenever one of you readers calls into UCSD housing to get an estimate for when housing will be available, let us know and we'll post that information for all to know here on the blog. The UCSD housing folks will get fewer calls to deal with, while the information is freely distributed to whomever would like to know.

A few little notes: UCSD affiliated housing typically has long wait lists associated with particular complexes. For example, Mesa Housing has an approximate 2-year, 2-month waitlist, while Single-Grad Housing typically has a 6-month waitlist. During a call, I typically let them know I am on the waitlist, and would like to know which applicants are being offered housing in the complex I am interested in. They usually respond by telling me they are offering housing to applicants that applied in April 2002, for example.
