<p>GLOBALIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need you! haha...ok, so I just got my housing assignment...Copeley III Apartments, I don´t know if you are familiar with this area but I would like any advice from you...is this location really bad? I know is far away from central grounds...but how far? Would I need a car? Are people here really isolated? Any advice or things you know/have heard about Copeley...would be greatly appreciated it!</p>
<p>THANKS!</p>
<p>Not to scare you, but Copely would be one of my last choices as a place to live. Assuming you are a first-year, it will be a very long walk from there to the college - about 25 -30 minutes one way. Fortunately, there is a bus stop nearby. You are near the Law School and Darden and the Rec. Center is there. Unless they changed the rules, you cannot bring a car your first semester at UVa. The good things about the area are that you are near U-Hall and the Barracks Shopping Center - which has a grocery store, Old Navy, a Ben and Jerry's, and a whole bunch of other stores. Hope this helps - but if I were you I would request a change to either New Dorms, Old Dorms, Hereford, Brown, or the IRC.</p>
