<p>although im going up to the open house next week to visit the campus, i was just wondering what the best dorm is at cal poly. by best i mean the best balance between partying and studying.</p>
<p>I wouldn't say there's a best dorm. Most partying goes on offcampus anyway, as all the dorms are relatively strict about noise. I'd recommend going to your major's dorm.</p>
<p>Just don't live in Sierra Madre or Yosemite; they're too far and feel like prisons. Try to get the redbricks if you can, you'll enjoy the short walk to class and food.</p>
