<p>You have to apply into the Business undergraduate program during your sophomore year, that is, you can't apply into Business as a freshman.</p>
<p>I see. In that case how bout entrance to UC Berkeley by the International Baccalaureate programme?</p>
<p>so i had a question about the grace period for the first payment. my loans and grants payed most of the fees due last friday, but i had about 100 dollars to pay left. i would have payed it online earlier but my statement was not updated and said i had to pay the full amount still. i'm going to talk about this over the phone but still wanted to ask y'all about the grace period. i heard it was two weeks? would i have to pay an extra fee or something as well?</p>
<p>How much of a disadvantage do you have for being out-of-state? Like how much higher does your GPA/SAT(s) have to be compared to a California resident? How much "better" do you have to be?</p>
<p>Also what are your chances of getting housing? (since it isn't guaranteed all four years) Are there different chances for in-state and out-of-state residents?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance....</p>
<p>Housing is guaranteed for 2 years if a freshman and 1 year if a transfer. Most people, however, get an apartment or co-op because a dorm is more expensive.</p>
<p>dorms are more expensive than apartments...? how lol?</p>
<p>Because I said so.</p>
<p>It's common knowledge that dorms are more expensive than apartments.</p>

I'm splitting a one bedroom apartment with two friends this year, with one of us in the living room and two in the bedroom (which is still bigger than a triple in unit2 was last year.) With way more space (and a full kitchen etc,) we are paying around $575 a person -- and we're paying more than we probably should be. Dorms are WAY more expensive than apartments.</p>
<p>I'm splitting an apartment with 5 other guys. I'll be in a triple with 2 other guys, but I'll have a nice chunk more room than the unit triples and I'm going to be paying $360 a month. There's still utilities, but those aren't significant enough to make a difference. Food is also much cheaper as you don't have to buy a rip-off meal plan. The only real downside is that you'll likely be farther away from campus than the dorms, but I could care less at $360 a month.</p>
<p>88888888 - Did you honestly think living in the dorms is cheaper than living in an apartment? The ~$1100+ a month that they charge you is highway robbery, but they get away with it because everybody always wants the "dorm experience" (myself included).</p>
<p>Look we even got a crown.</p>
<p>America's</a> Priciest Dorms</p>
<p>hmm.. wow.. interesting. In that case i think im gonna buy a house.</p>
<p>^ go ahead the median price in Berkeley is only an affordable $1.287 million</p>
<p>Only the 5th most expensive college town in the US (Coldwell</a> Banker-HPCI)</p>
<p>Lol yeah, dorms are really expensive. Why do you think so many people move out after the first year?</p>
<p>Anyways, I just want to make sure, but there's chairs provided for the desks in the Units right? We don't have to bring our own?</p>
<p>yea, chairs are provided.</p>

There are chairs provided, but if you intend on using them a lot you'd be much more comfortable bringing your own.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info, Glue!</p>
<p>Another thing: I've heard that Unit 3 triples have 3 closets. Are there any drawers in the triples as well? If so, how many?</p>
<p>The chairs aren't that bad and you don't need to (or even shouldn't) bring another chair if you plan on using the chairs a lot (everyone used the chairs a lot and they were just fine). They're actually pretty comfortable and are designed such that you can comfortably lean back on them a bit.</p>
<p>Do we need our Social Security card for anything?</p>
<p>For security .... duh....hahaha</p>
