So I was accepted to the UCSD class of 16, at Eleanor Roosevelt College. I live here in SD (about a 20 minute drive), so I won’t be living in dorms but I have a couple questions.


I like to party yet still be able to balance my school work. What are considered the “best” fraternities in terms of social-life, if there are frats. Also, would I be able to party and hang out with people I meet at their dorms even if I don’t live on campus?
How’s ERC? I’ve read it’s heavily focused on writing/history, but i’m not worried about that at all. I just don’t understand the whole 6 college system, will i be taking all my classes in this Eleanor Roosevelt college area? What is the purpose of the six colleges.
Is it possible to start in the summer and get ahead on credits? Is it worth it if so?
I’ve read about the good/bad professors and how people advise to try and not get the “bad” ones, do you get to pick your professor ahead of time, or how does that work?
How does the week schedule work, does it depend on your classes or do you go everyday for a certain amount?
What is a manageable amount of units to take, not too little but not overkill?


I’m sure i’ll come up with more, but that is that for now haha. Is there a FB page for all the Class of 16’ students yet? Getting to know people before the fall would be cool.
