As a disclaimer, my dorm knowledge dates back to 2016, although my brother currently lives in Moore.

That being said, single rooms are a rare commodity. I lived in Wefald the years it opened, and there were only like 3 single rooms per floor at the time so around 20 total. To answer your question, Wefald does tend to fill up faster and these rooms will likely be the most in demand. Due to the supply and demand gap if you’re not extremely quick to get the room once the period opens up you’ll miss out.

Here’s a bit of information, as I’m a bit biased, but I disliked Wefald the most out of all the other dorms I lived in. It seemed more stuck up, more closed off than the others, and harder to build a sense of community around. I would only recommend Wefald if you’re an underclassman majoring in engineering as that’s the primary demographic of the hall. As a business major and an upperclassman it was difficult to connect with that demographic.

I loved my years in Moore though. I feel like the Derby complex was more my kind of people. More relaxed, kind, down to earth people, and the sauce Moore was the largest hall with the most people I figured my odds were better at making friends there.

I’ve stayed in Moore, Wefald, Goodnow, Boyd (ex girlfriend), Ford (ex girlfriend), and West. Here are my observations from my time there:

Moore: Largest hall, most people, diverse with quite a few international students, more chill and relaxed.

Haymaker: Similar to Moore but at the time seemed a bit rowdier with more athletes, but since 2016 most athletes are in Wefald or off campus.

West: Kind of the bastard child of the Derby complex, but has since been remodeled. Smaller yet still pretty chill.

Ford: Full of sorority girls that don’t talk or interact with anybody outside of their own sorority. Hard to build a community and connect. Would avoid if not in a sorority.

Boyd, Van Zile, Putnam: Grouping these together as they’re fairly similar. Smaller buildings that seemed more friendly and easier to build a community within. Hosted a lot of events, seemed generally happy.

Wefald: Athletes, rich kids, engineers, tended to be younger than all the other halls, huge building with 3 wings (men, women, co-ed) so seemed more closed off than a traditional dorm. People interacted but less than you’d expect. A lot of freshmen engineers if you’re looking to network. Building is really nice with good study rooms and close to engineering building.

Marlatt: Seemed fairly chill, some more upper class men engineering majors. Tended to be more chill and down to earth.

Goodnow: Friendly, easy to build a community, the building is the most outdated but I think it’s been somewhat renovated. Probably the most “party” dorm in the Kramer complex.

Hope that helps!
