<p>A little off topic. How does housing work for the summer and fall? Are there specific dorms on campus that everyone is looking at or a house off campus? I’m 26, so living in dorms probably won’t work for me, but I don’t want to miss out on the social aspect and networking.</p>
<p>who cares if you are 26? Dorms are probably the most popular for first year students and transfers, because you are on campus, meal plan everything is kind of taken care of and like you said networking. You should consider dorms. Lets put it this way, create an environment for yourself that will give you the best chance to succeed.</p>
<p>I know…its not the age thing so much, I just have a nice apartment and nice things that make home, home…I know I should live on campus, I’ve done the dorm thing in the marines…are there specific dorms haas transfers stay at? I’ve done some browsing online…the thought of triples makes me apprehensive.</p>
<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I just rejected CAL’s acceptance. I will not be attending the Haas School of Business, I will instead be attending UCLA for Business Economics. Good luck to all of you that have chosen Haas as your school, and to those that have not just remember I rejected them. There are many more factors than rank that you should consider before choosing.</p>
<p>Loski, are you male or female? Are you interested in finding a roommate? I need a roommate and I am 28. PM me if you are interested.</p>
<p>Soccer,</p>
<p>What was your biggest reason for turning down their acceptance? Wasn’t it kind of wasteful to take all those extra classes just for Haas then turn down their admission? But I guess there is a reason why people choose not to attend, as there’s always about 10~15% every year that do that.</p>
<p>does anyone know if the haas essay topics change every year or if they change at all? anyhelp is much appreciated</p>
<p>a little curious about the living situation as well. I never got the dorm experience at CC, always wanted it. I’m only 19 but I’m still a little curious. I’m planning on commuting during the summer session (20 minutes from home), but there’s still a lot of things I need to figure out about housing. Any suggestions are welcome.</p>
<p>hey game theory, I finished 3 years of Spanish in high school and went up to calc II in high school as well. I needed to fill up 60 units anyways and so the Haas requirements were not a big deal. I rejected them for several reasons, location, atmosphere…yes i’ve visited, and i generally felt i would do better at UCLA, less distractions about meeting new people etc.</p>
<p>Thanks for posting info about the curve soccerdude - that makes me feel a lot better. I hear it’s ruthless but I also heard the curve is centered more around a b instead of a c (so what you said makes sense). Enjoy UCLA - it’s a great school.</p>
<p>no problem man, good luck to you too.</p>
<p>wow good to hear alot of you guys got in. i’m going to easily get a 4.0 (including my prereqs and breadth requirements etc.), but does anyone know if they look at high school grades as well? It’s b/c i completed my 3 yrs of spanish at high school and i got a C in all my spanish courses. do they just want to see that you completed year 3, or also what grades you got?</p>
<p>They don’t take grades into consideration for the foreign language requirements as long as you pass with a C- or better. I had a 2.7 gpa in high school with not so stellar grades in my foreign language classes (partied a little too much for my own good in HS) and I’m all set to begin summer classes at Haas.</p>
