Is Atrium a great offer?

I was surprised to get an offer so early considering my preferred starting lease date is in August +/- 1 month, and I haven’t even had my final exams yet. I am applying for a Bachelor, but I only knew about Vortex as well as the two optional buildings for which I agreed to receive offers.

I only applied for studios and what they offered is on the more expensive side, around 950CHF.

I wanted to make sure that I have no other choice but to accept, right? If I decline I get immediately flung out of the waiting list from what I understood. The thing is I have a friend currently at EPFL who just finished her bachelor studies and we’ve been looking for shared accommodation along with some other friends. Accepting this means I won’t be available to potentially join them, as I have to pay a large deposit tax for Atrium.
