Mind you finding a bunk may be the next challenge.
I would not be too worried..... there is usually cancellations at the Uni.
You have to go there as soon as you arrive in town and put your name down for a room and you may not get the key till late in the day.
If flying in via LAX, go to ORD and rent a car for the week.
Check the EAA site out for the "accommodation hot line" which arrange billets etc. Always good value. Might cost you a phone call or two to arrange.
