<p>Bit late for those. Urgh, I wish I had gotten Muir.</p>
<p>ERC has the BEST/NEWEST dorms at ucsd- Huge common room, clean carpet etc...etc...</p>
<p>steps from Rimac (the big gym) and one of the best dining halls (cafe ventanas)</p>
<p>All the other colleges are jealous- consider yourselves lucky!!!</p>
<p>asura...im happy to discover we share the same disappointment. (It's just that the GEs are so demanding, especially that MMW) anybody wishing to comment on MMW a bit more?</p>
<p>MMW is tight!</p>
<p>but not BBW =[</p>
<p>taniuxka, I actually really like the idea of MMW, I just hate the foreign language component.</p>

Looking over the Requirements, I'm really disappointed that there is no option for Hindi or Punjabi. Is there any way to get over the foreign language requirement? I'm not looking forward to more Spanish.

the ERC page said that other languages may have proficiency tests arranged on a case by case basis. hindi is a popular enough language that I imagine it would be doable.</p>
<p>what's BBW?</p>
<p>im looking foward to herbst, he gave the cool sample lectures for orientation. mmw1... all the professors were pretty lame. mmw2 they were alright too. i dont see anyone hating on the professors, but not really praising their glory too. mmw3 should be more fun with herbst.</p>
<p>carlisle was really good in mmw 1</p>
<p>and i'm looking forward to herbst too</p>
<p>this might seem random,
but are there any kitchens or places to cook in the residence halls?</p>
<p>yes, it's on the first floor of every residential hall building. however every apartment suite has their own kitchen.</p>
<p>is there a/c?</p>
<p>nope..supposedly the ocean air is enough, but i think otherwise lol. sometimes we have freak weather and get really hot days and then really cold/gloomy days, so just bring like a mini desk fan or ones that clip onto your desk.</p>
<p>is it true that you can get housing in any of the college dorms regardless of the college you attend? like for example if i'm a warren student, i could get a ERC dorm? =]</p>
<p>uhh...nope</p>
<p>im in ERC and have to take a bunch of GEs that are unrelated to my major (Biochemestry)</p>
<p>Do we get to choose which dorm we want within ERC in our housing application? If so, which one is the best??
Thanks!</p>
<p>I got into ERC! I don't think you get to specify what dorm you want, unless you mean choosing between a single, double, or triple....I heard on the housing app you get to say which one you prefer.
Anyone know how hard it is to get a single? Is it REALLY hard?</p>
