<p>My housing offer was Clark Kerr. Its reputation seems to be that it is much more expensive than the units or most other dorms. However, on the comparing rates website, (Living</a> at Cal 2011-2012, UC Berkeley Housing), it says that it is the same price as the units for a single, double or triple (which I was offered.) I should trust the website, correct? Does the reputation simply come from the price of the suites in Clark Kerr which are relatively very expensive? Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>Rates are rates; trust the website.</p>
<p>Truth of the matter is: all dorms here are extremely expensive, relatively speaking. The cheapest dorms you can get still cost over twice of what it’d cost to live in an apartment.</p>
<p>A Clark Kerr triple in the 2nd or 3rd floor of building 3, 4, 7, or 8 will likely have more than enough room to arrange the furniture without needing bunk beds. The same is unlikely to be true for most other triples.</p>
<p>Clark Kerr is further away from the main campus than most other dorms. It may be a significant trek if you are a psychology major.</p>
