Best housing for engineering?

As a freshman, your classes will be all over campus. My kid is in one of the furthest dorms (Earle in East) and she doesn’t mind the walk. Keeps off the freshmen 15. Honestly though, engineering is a tough major so you may want to consider the SLO so you have a built-in study group for CHEM 110, MATH 140, and what not.

Regardless, don’t stress about housing. Just about every student who posts where they lived freshmen year will tell you that they loved it. I’m a fan of East simply because it’s all freshmen. But you can just as easily build your own mini support community by belonging to an SLO or joining clubs.

Quick side note: for engineering, hit the ground hard on studying. It’s a very tough major.
