Okay so i am planning to dorm at UC Merced in the fall for my freshman year. Now, which dorm sould i apply to? I saw other people on other forums suggest sierra or valley because they are close to everything around the school, but i also heard these dorms are isolated and un social. I am thinking the summit because i hear that dorming there is social and the buildings are new and really nice. They also look larger and nicer than the other dorms. I am going to UC Merced alone and i am a social person so i want to be in a highly social atmosphere. So which dorms are the nicest, which are the best for me? Btw i do not know if this matters, but i am attending the school of natural sciences major bio change to biochem after semester two. Does location matter? I saw that the summit dorms are far away from everything, but is there like a shuttle or something that takes you to the actual classes? Or if everything within walking distance? Also, should i bring my car to UC Merced? Even if i am dorming i assume i still need to pay for parking and I have yet to visit the campus, is merced really isoltaed out in the boonies? Is there a reason to have a car if you are dorming? Thank you
