<p>Can you explain more about them being hostile to transfers? </p>
<p>Can't you get that social life through greek life?</p>
<p>I've already got a good amount of friends at UCB..I hope that'll save me from the hostility :/. Btw, it's awesome that you came back and updated us..thanks!</p>
<p>Another question out of curiosity, would it be better to live in the transfer dorms, or in an apartment with a bunch of continuing Berkeley students whom I am friends with?</p>
<p>Yes, I am a female, if you pull up my profile, you can see that I have a website and my pics are on there. As far as being a female, from my experience as a rentry student with allot of experience, people tend to focus way too much on love and romance while they are school to the point that it distracts them from what is really important. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with having a relationship while in school, if in fact you have no problems juggling the two. But if it gets in the way of focusing on learning or where you want to go to school, you have your whole life ahead of you for that. It's such a short time in your life that you get your college experience and I would hate to see anyone not get the best out of it because they were focusing too much on other things. </p>
<p>btw, saying that mostly men take charge might be your experience but is not the case with me.</p>
<p>I'm also curious about what walnut asked re: hostile to transfers? I have several friends that transfered there and are very happy with the social life.</p>
<p>social life is really depends on your personality, but I would say living in a dorm is better than living with your friends because you can make new friends. </p>
<p>Also, Iluvtoolearn, I have not read your profile nor do I know anything about you, but I do know a number of girls with relationship and constantly complain about their relationship taking their time away from their learning/worklife. </p>
<p>I can assure you, the LACK of relationship, love, and friendship due to a wrong approach to life (the over-achiever approach) is more disabling than everything.</p>
<p>I am only glad that I have sacrificed my grade and everything I possibly worked for before my transfer for a happier life and wider experience.</p>
