That's terrible! Alex Plank said he got put on the PhD floor and they were even more sensitive to noise than he was. Maybe you can find that kind of room-mate situation. A lot of graduate student house-shares aren't very social at all, so it might be OK.
My situation was different. I was in the dorms but had to escape, so I slept in the hills above campus most nights. The next year, I camped, and saved a lot of money. I had a locker at the gym where I could leave stuff and a study carrel at the library, and only had to go 'home' to sleep. After that I was able to stay on the sleeping porch of a fraternity where my friend was a member. It turned out there were quite a few of us doing similar things.
