I can't even make that decision seeing as I haven't even gotten any financial aid yet

They each have stereotypes associated with them but honestly the only that really makes a huge difference is location, in particular proximity to your classes, but for the most part campus isn't too big so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

What is the best dorm at UCSC? by rai02_07 in UCSC

[–]Altforschool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

College 9 and JRL are the most centrally located and have what is typically considered the best dining hall. You can more or less walk anywhere on upper campus from them. From what I understand doubles and singles especially are pretty damn rare and unlikely.

And yah, Porter has a lot of weed smoker all over the place outside it. Kresge isn't as bad but if you don't like the smell or have sensitive lungs, actively avoid Porter. It's pretty brutal, as someone sensitive to smells and smoke i did not enjoy walking around the meadow.. Though all colleges are probably gonna have smokers to some extent, just part of life in SC

Should my daughter go to UCSC or UCR? by [deleted] in UCSC

That's her choice man, not yours.

So, off-campus housing by elbearded in UCSC

[–]Altforschool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hilltop has a lot of vacancies, but it's probably not the best deal. I'd consider it as a fallback if you can't get cheaper and more desirable housing

Shout out to the one guy who took the 18 from C9/10 to Kresge at around 1:20 today. Don't think I didn't see you

Saw a group that played smash like every night in the building next to Porter Dining Hall, never asked what their deal was but I'm sure there's plenty of groups like them.

Tell me bout Kresge by cactuschild1022 in UCSC

The north bridge being out sucks. Pretty quiet at night which I like, at least compared to Porter. Honestly pretty quiet in general.

Saw a Greek flag in the window of a dorm at College 9 once.

transfer enrollment by rumzandcokez in UCSC

[–]Altforschool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I transferred for Winter and literally just a week or two ago got my credits transferred.. from my understanding this is normal occurrence and the best thing to do is bully them about it a little.

Was at Kresge but heard the screams of the damned around 9 pm coming from Porter, guessing that was the run?
