<p>I was wondering where should I stay if I was planning to be an International Relations major at the College of Arts and Sciences?
Where would be the most convenient?</p>
<p>The campus isn't that big. Any dorm on campus will be within a 10 minute walk.</p>
<p>As a Freshman, expect most of your classes to be concentrated among GFS, VKC, or THH. Therefore, the McCarthy Quad dorms would be most conveniently located (Birnkrant, New/North, Pardee, Marks Hall/Tower, Radisson). But as momofchris said, even the other dorms like Parkside and Fluor are only about 10-15 minutes away walking, even less by bike.</p>
<p>Which building(s) is closest to Marshall?</p>
<p>Trojan is probably the closest, followed by Pardee (then Marks Tower/Hall). But New/North and Birnkrant are only like a minute extra walk.</p>
<p>dragon17, that would also be McCarthy Quad bldgs. Marks and Trojan Hall (which I forgot to add to my previous post) is directly across the street from Marshall's Popovich Hall.</p>
<p>I think only MBA students take classes at Popovich. Marshall undergrads take courses at Bridge and Hoffman. Marshall students correct me if I'm wrong.</p>
<p>Proto: You're right.</p>
<p>Thanks. So Marshall is pretty much located at the corner of Exposition & Figueroa...?</p>
<p>It's on Exposition right across from the Rose Garden.</p>

<p>Thanks. Very helpful.</p>
<p>Thanks ^_^
that was helpful. Another question that i have would be that if I want to stay at Parkside Suites, would it be easier to get housing there if i was an international student?</p>
<p>Not really, just send in the app early and you should get it.</p>
<p>do you think we have a pretty good shot at getting our top choice (birnkrant) if we sent in the housing app the first week of february? like... 90~% chance?</p>
<p>Good grief, no offense intended here but if you sent your housing app back in February, then why are you worried about not getting your FIRST choice!?!?!?!? :confused:</p>
<p>Seriously, if you don't get your first choice Sarah, then I don't know what this world has come to. Just don't worry about it.</p>
<p>good point...i'm sending mine out tomorrow and i'm not too concerned (edit: well, later today as it's 1:30 AM)</p>
<p>I agree, I sent my housing app. in a week before our INTENT TO ENROLL was due and I got my first choice.</p>
<p>redski59: haha sorry i'm just paranoid.. but thats good news! : )</p>
<p>I sent mine around end of March and I'm not worried @ all. I really hope I get New/North or Birnkrant.</p>
