<p>holy ****, UCI Vista Del Campo housing is so effing gorgeous -- community pool, bbq pits, rec rooms, holly crapppp. apartments actually have KITCHENS and living rooms, etc</p>
<p>i'm jealous (going to UCLA reiber terrace)</p>
<p>bbq pits? thats awesome.</p>
<p>Boring city.</p>
<p>Jesus H. Christ son, BBQ pits are getting you excited? You do realize those people still have to live in IRVINE?</p>
<p>the notion of being able to cook gets me excited!</p>
<p>go to ucla, get an apartment? </p>
<p>win/win</p>
<p>When do apartments NOT have kitchens/living rooms? The dorms at UCI are no different from any other UC campus. CSU have better dorms.</p>
<p>Come on, man. UCI vs. UCLA, Los Angeles is way more fun. The campus is way more beautiful too.</p>
<p>dood. bro. chad. hear me out:</p>
<p>ucla on campus dorms/apartments: no kitchens. period. none. nada. not even communal ones. </p>
<p>uci: a kitchen in the res hall to share w/ dorm mates. still better than no kitchen at all? </p>
<p>im just sayinggggg…</p>
<p>i dont get how they can call it an “apartment” when there isn’t a kitchen? have you ever heard of any apartment that didn’t have one?</p>
<p>Youre debating to go to irvine over ucla for a kitchen?!
are you okay?</p>
<p>the apartments are not on campus. there are “suites” which have several rooms, a common area and a bathroom.</p>
<p>i think the reason many people want on-campus is so they don’t have to deal with the cooking thing. that’s my 2nd reason for living on campus.</p>
<p>UCLA-owned apartments do have kitchens, rshaan. Maybe you should put in a housing change request if you don’t like Rieber Terrace?</p>
<p>most people who go to UCI live off campus because its not hard to find a nice apartment</p>
<p>I know Irvine is a dead city, but is it expensive to live there off-campus?</p>
<p>I heard if you have good connections, then its not that hard. and besides i heard its really nice off campus near the beaches, but then you need to beat the commute to get to school</p>
<p>but then again it might be better than the traffic at other uc campuses</p>
<p>dude. UCLA>UCI . UCI’s campus is too fragmented for my tastes.</p>
<p>Seriously, what’s with those weird building structures?</p>
<p>i like to think of UCI as mini-UCLA and UCD as mini-Berkeley.</p>
<p>UC Santa Cruz as mini-Santa Barbara and UC Merced as mini-Riverside</p>
