UCSD Transfer Housing Question

<p>Does anyone know if the Transfer Housing offered is good? If so, how much will it usually cost? I was also wondering if I should start looking for apartments or a place to live starting now for this fall.</p>

<p>look it up on the website for a virtual tour. i did a real tour this summer and it was pretty sweet. the apt.s are pretty spacious and well done… everything is new. i will be living in them.</p>

<p>From my experience, a website for something like this is bound to be misleading by its “flashy advertising” approach. Why? Seeing that eye-catchy presentation psychologically raises your expectations, and once you actually start living there, you may soon be disappointed.</p>

<p>One thing I’m stunned at is the exorbitant housing rates: $1,270 - $1,400 per month?! That’s simply ludicrous, and a single room of course would be much higher.</p>

<p>no, the single rooms are about 1400 / month. the doubles are around 1270-1350, and the triples are 1270. </p>

<p>this includes a full dining plan tho, plus your fin aid will pay for it. thats the only reason its worth it.</p>

<p>plus you dont have to commute and such if you are on campus.</p>
