<p>I've been admitted to UIUC for General Studies. I don't really know what to major in and I definitely do not know where to dorm. I really like playing basketball but I'm not much of a partying type of person. I'd like a relatively quiet place if possible. Any recommendations on where should I dorm?</p>
<p>I would recommend either the six pack(ikenberry commons or ISR)</p>
<p>There is a huge campus rec center next to the six pack, and there are usually lots of people playing basketball. However, although the six pack is social, it is also very loud.</p>
<p>ISR is relatively quiet and is in the best location with respect to your classes and is full of engineers(they study all the time).</p>
<p>PAR/FAR are quiet, but they are far away from everything.</p>
<p>You should also look into Allen hall(Im not sure how it is).</p>
<p>Does it really matter how far things are from each other? How’s the transportation system and is everything a relatively walkable distance?</p>
<p>Bring a bicycle…</p>

<p>Everything on campus is within a walkable distance(if you are willing to walk up to 20 minutes). However, the on campus bus system is usually good on weekdays(not as good on weekends).</p>
<p>Nevertheless, I would consider location to be an important factor when selecting a dorm.</p>
