My son is going to UGA this Fall. I have read through a lot of threads on this topic but I am still not sure which to pick. He is more on the quiet side and studies a lot. He is going to be a biology major and want to take the pre-med path. He is not in the honors program (missed the deadline) and not in FRC (missed that as well). Myers and Rutherford is his first two choices but I heard the space that is limited since he is not in the above mentioned category. Can someone suggest some other suitable, relatively quieter dorms that he has a better chance of getting in? Thanks.
The students are all in the midst of exams, but I managed to get my daughter to answer. Hope that this helps!
The low-rises as a whole are quieter, I’m pretty sure. So dorms like Mell and Lipscomb. And then ECV dorms are supposed to be quieter as well, but they’re also more separated from campus.
My son loved Lipscomb! Quiet, close to everything and easier on the college budget. He was able to walk to most of his classes. My daughter also starts in August and has the Hill Community dorms at the top of her list.
