When you enter into sophomore year, there is a good chance that you will be placed in one of Cabot’s almost 120 singles, however some sophomores and many upperclassmen live in one of Cabot’s close to 250 suites. These range from duplex style suites in C-entryway to smaller suites in Bertram and Eliot with fire escape access (but don’t actually go out!). And with any luck, as an upperclassman, you might land Cabot’s famed Library suite. Yup, only at Harvard do the cool kids live in the library suite.

\r\n

With a nice range of singles and larger rooms that allow for more dorm room parties, Cabot knows how to have a good time. In addition to diverse living options, the house boasts common rooms in each of the six separate halls and four kitchens scattered throughout the house. And although students do complain about how spread out each of Cabot’s six halls are, all of the buildings are connected by underground tunnels so you can get to the dining hall without going outside!

\r\n

The summer after freshman year, students placed in Cabot are assigned rooms by House Administrator Amanda Pepper after indicating preferences for type of room and other students they would like to live close to. The largest suite holds six people while the smallest holds two. Upperclassmen enter a separate lottery for housing.

Cabot has numerous other amenities from the aforementioned Cabot Cafe (try the Nutella-Me-More), to handy underground bike racks (#quadlife), and even a theater attached to the house. Dean of the College Rakesh Khurana and his wife Stephanie Khurana serve as house masters, and are a regular presence throughout the house, often hosting open houses and chatting with students in the dining hall and cafe.

The obvious issue people have with Cabot is that it is in fact in the Quad. To make it even worse, you might not even get that coveted single Quadlings often brag about. Some people complain about the small and cramped dining hall too, but overall, Cabot is a really great Quad House and at least you’re not in Currier.
