<p>As a recently accepted transfer student I was told that the only dorms that weren't full were Building 1516 and Brown Hall. I picked Building 1516 and was just wondering what the overall feel is like. I plan on going out fairly often and rushing a Fraternity, also how far away is everything from the east campus village. Thank you and Go Dawgs!</p>
<p>If you’re a transfer student, then you should focus on your education and utilizing University of Georgia’s resources for after graduation. There’s nothing wrong with having a little fun, but you have to keep a balance. You’re not a freshman, so don’t act like one. Go look for student organizations to join, and go look for internships for your major.</p>
<p>Or else maybe another university would better cater to your needs. I’m not trying to be rude, but it’s something to think about. </p>
<p>Building 1516(now named Busbee Hall) is a popular choice among students. Brown Hall, located on the Health Science Campus is more geared towards transfer, upperclassmen and graduate students. I think Busbee Hall would be a better fit for you. How far away everything is depends on your major and your needs. For example, many of the science classrooms and labs are on south campus. </p>

<p>@halcyontimes I understand what you’re saying about school being first, but I’m trying to get a college experience too as I am a community college transfer but from out of state so I will only be a sophomore. I do plan on balancing social and school lives, and you are right about not acting like a freshman, since I am older and paying for school myself I understand that. But thank you for your response, it is appreciated. (Sorry if that sounded rude, didn’t intend for it too)</p>
