TAKE YOUR PICK! QUICK

Hey Folks!

It's been quite some time since I posted anything informal in these spaces. CORRECTION.

It's been a while since I've posted anything at all here. [CLICK HERE FOR SOME TIMEPASS LITERATURE]

Chalo, koi nahi....bound to do that soon.

But in the meantime, there's something about hostel allotment that we all might want to discuss. I was laden with hope that those of us - like me - who were now third years in the becoming, would for the first time in NIT W, get 'single occupancy' quarters to soliloquize in. (Till last year, it was only the final years who had the umm...privilège)


Now...

This time they've given us an option on the type of accommodation.
  • triple seated
  • double seated
  • single seated
I am of the opinion that despite hard-hit recessionary times, most of us would want to make the most of a pick on privacy options for the 2 semesters to follow. Regarding the numbers - the option seems to be open to all the second, third and fourth years to be. So we can expect nearly 80% (or more?) of us going for the single seated allotments (costing nearly 2.5 to 3.5 times the amount you would have to shell out for a triple seated room). In any case, the triple and double seated options aren't that inviting to the average NITWit. Apparently, you don't know where to include your room mate option in case you go for the multiple accommodation choice.

Strange.

First Come, First Serve seems to be the mantra...

...and 3rd July happens to be the dead-line. (Indian Postal Service - dhyaan rahe!)

You're all bright folks, and you know what to do next.

:-)


NOTE: It's believed that the final years have 4th block in preference. Best for us to go for the Mega Hostel (1K room hostel)

good work
but what in the world is going on with these people
now we need to send a form
mess allotment on first come first serve basis
god knows how to choose your room mates and no details for academic fees, etc
i tell you it will end up being all a mess in the end
good luck to all

you're right. we can only hope 'mess' isn't an understatemnt.

This is work that should have been done with a month (or at least 2 weeks) before the semester ended!

jeez!

and dude do you have any idea what this institute food court thing is???

Anirudh said...

hey...limited idea on that ;-). It's supposed to be the mega-hostel mess (and residents of 1-14 block won't be using it) - it'll be privatised - so you'll be shelling out more from your pocket for the food...

hello,ths is bharath
i am a 2nd year student at nitw.
our website is crashing down always
and is not getting opened saying that the site is being remodelled. i want to know about the hostel accomodation and i am unable to open it. so pls
can u give me any suggestions regarding this.....

Anirudh said...

@bharath - Information coming from NITW has it that - the option form is a litmus test on the demand for single seated rooms in the 1k hostel. So this may not be the only form you'd be filling...as far as the college server...yeah it's down - there seems to be a snag from strong winds that hit a couple of days back. Anyway, I can mail you the pdf form if you let me know your e mail id (you can send your id through the 'contact' button on the home page)
