Any Questions about UCSD?

<p>oh I see. If anything, though, I’m going to do either the freshman seminar or one PofC class.</p>

<p>This might sound like a weird question, but what is the policy and proper etiquette on going to the bathroom during class? Is just walking out rude? Do you raise your hand (although I think announcing that you have to go pee pee is a little embarrassing in front of 200 people)? I know you should always go before class but I have a small bladder and often find myself having to urinate in the middle of a discussion.</p>

<p>make sure to sit in the aisle, close to the back, and make a quiet exit without disturbing anyone.</p>

<p>kinda like at the movies …</p>

<p>Do you have to enroll in the classes your counselor recommends? Or can you enroll in any classes you want? </p>

<p>(I’m an incoming freshman)</p>

<p>Hey how is the greek life?</p>

<p>they’re reccomendations, not requirements.</p>

<p>What can/do we do with left-over dining dollars?</p>

<p>buy appliances at earls or other stores or just stock up on food. I heard they have this transferring points to other people but I haven’t seen it yet.</p>

<p>you can’t technically transfer to people. but last year hdh let people sell dining dollars to other people for a cheaper price. like 100 dining dollars for $50. and the $50 went straight to the student with the extra dining dollars. (but you can’t charge like 5 cents because hdh has to approve the cost first).</p>

<p>I got a $160 bill on my account recently (as of Aug. 26th) for orientation. Kind of stupid how they let me go for free, then decided to bill me now… -_-</p>

<p>Anyways, there doesn’t seem to be a “due date”. Does anyone know how long they give me before late fees occur? Or can I just wait it out until I get financial aid so I can pay it like that?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Everyone else get $3,134.00 as their education fee (this excludes all the other fees which adds up to like $4000) ? $500-600 up from Spring T_T</p>

<p>Are there any Visual Arts classes that we can’t take for our PofC/Area Study courses for Warren? I saw a few classes I’d consider like photography or something but I don’t know if there is some kind of list as to what courses we’re supposed to take</p>

To my understanding, just make sure you follow the prereqs (if there is any), and you’ll be fine.</p>

<p>@marking yup…</p>

<p>about public transit in LJ/SD:
how easy is it to get to say, the La Jolla Whole Foods by public transportation? since i’m not bringing a car, I’d like to know what my approximate range is via public transport without it getting inconvenient (many transfers, 20+ minute ride). Please specify some landmarks, ie. Fashion Valley, Blacks Beach, etc. Thanks!</p>

<p>sdcommute.com will tell you everything you need.</p>

<p>@92faim: SUPER EASY. I’d actually discourage anyone from bringing a car for freshman year with the parking cost & no parking space anyway.
Just take the 201 (bus stop at gilman parking structure, near sixth college) once and you’ll be at La Jolla village (Whole Foods, Radio Shack, Chase&BoA banks, TGIF, BJs, Staples, Chipotle, etc) in less than 5 minutes. You can take the 202 across the street that goes in the opposite direction that leads straight to UTC for shopping. Fashion valley is pretty hard to get to without a car but UTC is pretty big and has a decent amount of stores.
Make sure to get you bus stickers on your IDs to use the public transportation for free!</p>

<p>you can also take the nobel campus shuttle which leaves from mandeville next to muir</p>

<p>But bringing a car can’t be that bad can it… lol I’m bringing my car as a freshman, I don’t want that to be a mistake or something</p>

<p>^No, I think having a car in La Jolla is 100% NECESSARY, since public transportation is inconvenient and takes forever to get anywhere (like 40+ minutes to fashion valley). I loved having my car freshman year.</p>

<p>This is just my opinion though.</p>
