<p>IF by a miracle I get into UCI would it be possible to stay in freshman dorms? I want to live as close to campus as possible.
Plus since im a one year junior transfer im only going to be 19 in February so I'd rather be with people closer to my age.</p>
<p>I doubt it. I think I remember reading that UCI has more competitive housing than other UCs so there’s a waitlist, and sometimes they even put freshmen in the apartments instead of the dorms. </p>
<p>There are still lots of places to live close to campus that aren’t the freshmen dorms. They have a lot of themed housing which are welcoming to new transfers.</p>
<p>im definitely dorming so ill prolly end up in transfer dorms it would just be kind of meh for me if everyone around me is like 21+ haha it would be harder to relate.</p>
<p>I think it’l be fine but id want to try the dorm experience too if i could.</p>
