Hey, this is actually a question to all UC Santa Cruz students because it is about the housing. I am a student transferring there and picking between the 10 colleges. Here is my criteria for which I seek:
Housing good for History majors.
Housing good for NO drugs nor alcohol.
Housing with NO parties nor kickbacks.
Housing MOSTLY with scholars (If you know what I mean).
Housing that is MOSTLY quiet.
I find this to be a very difficult decision because my work and progress will be affected. I am trying to get to graduate school. Please let me know what college out of the 10 I should pick based on my criteria. Thanks!
^^^ definitely not. Either Merrill or Crown. There are also quiet floors in most colleges as well that are meant for people very dedicated to studying. But be aware. EVERY dorm is going to have alcohol and drugs. EVERY college is going to have alcohol and drugs. You are going to have a very bad time if you are adamantly against it.
^^Yes, every college will have drugs and alcohol, but not every student needs to partake. I don’t agree that means you have to have a bad experience, you just have to find like minded people. Like the op, my d chooses not to do drugs or drink and she applied to UCSC and if she gets in and decides to attend, she will be looking for people like the op who are not into that.
