<p>Hello!
So I am a senior in high school and will most likely be attending UCI next year. I have done my research and I have decided that if I attend UCI I will choose the Mesa Court dorm rooms but I still have some questions!</p>
<p>Here is a little about me:
-business major
-white
-likes to have fun
-girly
-looking for a social hall
-balance between social life and school</p>
<p>So which residence hall would be best for me?
Should I go with general interest or a specific interest hall?
Also which are the newer mesa court halls?</p>
<p>Thank you!!! :)</p>
<p>Hi there, I’m an undergrad at UCI.</p>
<p>First off, good choice picking Mesa Court. Mesa Court is better than the other freshman community, Middle Earth. Middle earth is antisocial, older, and more cramped. Mesa is a little more social, newer, and the rooms are much more spacious.
Second, the hall you choose isn’t that important. It won’t matter at all.</p>
<p>Understand that UCI is a very quiet school. The social scene is very low key. If you’re the kind of person who likes staying in and playing League of Legends, UCI is a great fit.
If you want to party, you NEED to either 1) be an athlete or 2) go greek.</p>
<p>That being said, I’m in a fraternity at UCI. I go out, party, and drink probably twice a week and I still maintain a 3.9 GPA in engineering…It’s not hard to balance both partying and academics, if you can handle it.</p>
<p>Thank you @UCchemE !!
So i have thought about being in a sorority, but the only problem is I don’t drink so I’m afraid I wont fit in. Dont get me wrong, I like having fun and going to a good party and dont care if others drink, but I just dont so i dont know what to do!!:(</p>
<p>@UCchemE I noticed that Middle Earth has a student gym while browsing the housing website. Does Mesa Court have one? I also saw that the ARC is kind of a walk from campus. Is it inconvenient for Mesa residents to work out and use the ARC? </p>
