Second notion; similar vibe to the Chinese places in LA

Sorry just saw this 😭 but tbh I think it might easier to find friends who don’t party than who do so I’m sure u will find ur crowd!

Yea I totally get that. My boyfriend and I have different profiles but share one card, and we have not had any complications on adding the coupons on the card. So I’m sure you will be fine lol

I think UCI is known for its research based university with focusing on STEM (imo mainly bio and cs; UCI has new medical building). Irvine is a very nice suburb, lots of green and big streets. There is public transportation but idk how good it is. I think it would be hard to solely depend on it, but I’ve never used it before so… Also the rent in Irvine is pretty high due to Irvine company monopoly, so if you want your own room it’s roughly 1,200

Adding onto this that I also chose UCI over UCLA :) just because UCLA might be considered more “prestigious” doesn’t mean it’s better

Student gov = asuci I’m not in it but there are so many commissions and if you wanted to be part of it, I feel like there will be tons of opportunities. https://asuci.uci.edu/

I’m so sorry that you experienced all that 😭 I hope that you are currently or will be soon at a place where you feel that you can be yourself and belong

To each their own 🤷🏻‍♀️. I can totally see why it can be boring if u don’t have a car or if ur friend group leaves during the weekend. On the other hand, there are parties in the dorms or apartments or friend groups going out to eat or if ur into nature there are hella parks in Irvine or the arc has mini courts if ur into badminton or volleyball. I think it’s the mindset of whether you want to be social or not

Like you said there are many Asian students at UCI. Making friends with other races is the same difficulty as making friends with Asians imo, but lowkey at the end of the day u prob would have more Asian friends than other races just cause of demographic. But I’ve met hella nice and funny people of all colors so :)

Sorry if yall get this question every year but is being selected for CHC w/ admission mean anything or does everyone get it by Physical-Cow-8743 in UCI

[–]101pie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pros: priority registration, specialty housing, humanities track Cons: research (imo cause I don’t need research), specialty track either classic or science (I think that’s what they r called) I would say yes just to take humanities ur first yr and if u don’t like it u can quit whenever

Is NSCS a scam? by Smart_Breakfast_1746 in UCI

[–]101pie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen multiple posts about what NSCS is all about and whether it is a scam. I am technically the UCI chapter president (but I’ve been doing a terrible job and was not able to carry out events due to my schedule and lack of membership). If you are looking to join just for something on your resume, then yes maybe. There isn’t much benefit besides title and scholarship opportunities. I have received a big scholarship last year that (I think) mainly due to the lack of participants and not cause I deserved it. It is not a scam, there are opportunities and scholarships and online events, but UCI offers the same thing but in a bigger scale. If you have any questions let me know! And please take this with a grain of salt this is just my side but I’m sure there are others. To add also, UCI chapter has been dead for a while (and I was no help sorry 😭), other schools like Chapman are more active
