UC Merced's student life?

<p>Hey, I got accepted to UC Merced and am wondering what student life at UCM is like now, in the 2012. I may chose to attend UCM. Since UCM is obviously the UC of the 21st century, what does it have to offer?</p>

<p>How is the music program? Is there piano labs/rooms? Is there a bookstore on campus? Does UCM allow bikes to be ridden around campus? Would you recommend riding bikes around campus? What language classes are offered at UCM?</p>

<p>Also, how is housing at UCM? What are the differences between each housing complex/building?</p>

<p>Hi!
I’m also an incoming freshman at UCM and I was wondering what does the city have to offer? I heard the campus was kind of in the middle of nowhere and there isn’t much to do so I just wanted to see what life outside of the school was like…</p>

<p>Also, what are the pros and cons of the freshman dorms?</p>

<p>Thankyou!!!:)</p>

<p>Hi guys! I am like 99.9% sure I will be attending Merced…If you guys do decided to attend there,let me know! But,my take on it is,its a new campus with new technology.I mean they have to be technology advanced,they were built in the 21st century.
And I like that the campus is small.I feel it’ll give me an opportunity to really expand my knowledge with the whole one on one prof thing.
Anyways let me know if you guys are attending Merced!;D</p>

<p>lol Im the same! Im like 99.99% sure I’ll be attending UCM. I havent gone to visit it yet(hopefully Ill go next week) but unless I completely hate the campus(which I doubt cause Im a nature freak lol) Ill be attending in the fall…I just want to see what there is to do around the campus…I dont want to be bored every weekend :/</p>

<p>I’ve gone. lol
It’s nice, I thought I wasn’t going to know anyone there until I bumped into one of my friends that goes there.She says their student life is alright,they periodically have performers come perform at their school,and they have movie night,and a lot of campus clubs,frats and sororities.And they are close to Yosemite lake,definitely want to go there.Also it’s close to downtown merced I’ve heard,which has like shopping places,restaurants,and a movie theater.
I like it because it’s in the middle of nowhere but accessible when you want to leave.But im going there forsure because i received my award letter,and it looks awsomeee. aha
anyway,if any of you guys decide to go there… add me on facebook!
