<p>I'm applying for summer housing session C, which is only 6 weeks. I get the following options (don't consider apartment or studio):
Residence Hall; Double Room - 15 meals per week - $2,041.00<br>
Residence Hall; Double Room - 21 meals per week - $2,301.00 </p>
<p>that's 6 extra breakfast in the latter choice = 36 extra meals</p>
<p>$2301-$2041=$260 $260/36=$7.22</p>
<p>A $7 school breakfast? What kind of thing is that?</p>
<p>welcome to unsubsidized summer meal plans.</p>
<p>School needs to make money somehow.</p>
<p>just wondering, what do they serve in breakfast? if it’s english breakfast and fresh fruit salad everyday, I might as well not bother DIM</p>
<p>plus its not necessarily just breakfast, you can look it as 15 meals=3 meals a day then go home on weekends while 21 means 2 whole days of food at 7 dollars a meal… still kind of a rip off but better than 7 dollar breakfast? but seriously why not get an apartment, im paying 1000 for a session (kinda expensive but close to campus) and leaves me 1000 bucks for 6 weeks of food…</p>
<p>no one eats breakfast at ucla.</p>
<p>As far as the menu goes, it’s pretty standard:</p>
<p>Omelets, Hash Browns, Waffles, Scrambled Egg, Bacon, Breakfast Sausage, Pancakes, Cereal</p>
<p>And tons of Bakery goods. Muffin, Scones, Donuts, Croissant, Cake, etc.</p>
<p>the omelets are worth it. the only reason i would ever wake up early.</p>
<p>there are no custom omelets during summer, only ham and cheese.</p>
<p>well, in that case…wow. that sucks.</p>
<p>You pay for convenience. End of thread.</p>
<p>Just do a two meal a day plan, grab some extra fruit for the next morning, and you’re set!</p>
<p>Hell, I think it’s MUCH CHEAPER to actually live off campus… you can have a room to yourself, w/ private bath, for anywhere from 800-1400, but it all depends on the location and luxury you buy.</p>
<p>Well thanks for all the advices</p>
<p>I’m international so I want to stay in campus for the first year</p>
<p>deuces is right, I’d probably pay for convenience (or laziness)</p>
<p>lol, room for yourself @ 800 dollars a month… It’s cheaper, but not too much if you live in westwood like I do (since you usually have a 12-mo lease). If you want to go further out, you get nicer amenities for around the same price (the market is rough around here). I stayed on campus two years because it was convenient, fun, and let me focus on school.</p>
<p>Where can you get your own room for only $800? Is it South of Wilshire? I’d be interested in getting that…</p>
<p>Who eats breakfast? Hello, most important meal of the day is dessert.</p>
<p>^ I LOVE breakfast. (Dunno if I’ll like it at UCLA, but…) OMG! All that syrupy goodness along with meat patties and sausages. Oh! And soft moist pancakes… <em>drools</em></p>

<p>I think it will be a bachelor. If not, it will be sharing an apartment (but having your own room) with an adult who works 9-5.</p>
