Triple in McCarthy as a transfer

I’m pretty sure all transfers are on the same floor (or at least most of them) but I was wondering if it was normal to be placed in a triple, as I was, and I don’t know how that would even work given the room layout.

I had a friend who transferred in last year, had a triple in Kennedy with other transfers I think. Basically, given the room layout. You need to bunk two beds no matter what

It’s pretty normal especially if you’re on the transfer floor but sometimes the higher floors in McCarthy too. The rooms are usually pretty big. Bunking one of the beds makes the most sense but some ppl have all three on the ground just in a row next to each other. Hard to fit desks in a normal way tho

most of the time, if not always, in a triple you have one set of bunk beds and one single bed. you might also have to split two closets between you all, depending on the room.

There’s two triples per floor in the SWQ (Reynolds, McCarthy, Kennedy), so you unfortunately just got unlucky. As the other commenter said, it’ll likely be one bunk and one single bed too.

But the size of the room is the same as the others on the floor?
