| @strongergodzilla, I'm also a transfer to UCLA and i must say that i really envy your social life. I wanted the dorms, but they gave me the apartments. i know quite a few other transfers who got the dorms even though they wanted the apartments. so ucla gives u what u DONT want!
"almost all the people i knew who transfered and lived off campus all said the same thing, that they couldn't seem to make new friends."
pretty much sums up me and my roommates. I at least tried a few different clubs and tried to make friends in my classes. I dont think my roommates joined ANY clubs, and 1 of them is actually a social guy
even though i did very well academically, i must say that there certainly was a difference in academic ability between the sophomores and junior transfers in my classes. the sophomores were aiming for A's while the transfers just wanted to pass. |
