What dorms are you thinking of?

<p>I really have no idea.. From what I've read on here I'll probably choose Unit 1 or 3, because I want a good social experience. But I don't know much else about them.</p>

<p>Yea I’m wondering this too … some rooms seemed nicer than others in the clips on the website, but it’d be cool to have some insight from a student!</p>

<p>locrow - why not unit 2? Identical to unit 1 just a block or so further from the edge of campus.</p>

<p>I have no idea!! haha like I really don’t know any details about the dorms, just from what I read on the other threads unit 1 and 3 seemed really popular. I think maybe unit 2 housed less freshmen?</p>

<p>unit 1 and unit 2 have more of the newly renovated dorms, unit 3 hasn’t exactly gotten a facelift. units 1 and 2 are the most popular, unit 3 less popular.</p>

<p>all the dorms hold about the same number of freshmen. the vast majority of students leave the dorms after freshman year b/c it’s cheaper to live in an apartment than it is to live in the dorms.</p>

<p>you should also take your major into account. if you are a science major, particularly chemistry or engineering, consider foothill, stern, or bowles b/c they’re MUCH closer to your classes. foothill also has bigger rooms than the units. Clark kerr has the biggest rooms by far, but clark kerr is also in an inconvenient location.</p>

<p>does anyone know which dorms would provide the best social life?</p>

<p>youre getting a social life no matter which unit you choose to live in. the people change every year anyways but you cant go wrong with any of the units</p>

<p>Units ftw! :slight_smile:
But in terms of a social life, it depends on what you and your floormates make of it. Thankfully I lucked out this year with a pretty social floor in Unit 1… hopefully that’s the case next year.</p>

<p>What about poli- sci majors? And how is the food?</p>
