She chose and was assigned a double room in Tercero. They are all newer, gorgeous, spacious rooms and I think were designed to eventually all be triples. She is on the swim team, so proximity to the aquatic center was important to her (Tercero), but it is a big complex and hosts most of the freshmen. There is a great DC in the area as well–the food there is nothing like I remember from my college days! We actually got her an off campus meal plan the past 2 years so she can go a couple times a week between classes.
She says segundo is a little older, but still nice, more intimate, buildings not as big as Tercero. Cuarto is going to be all new; they just rebuilt the whole complex from the ground up. Tercero is definitely the biggest and houses the most students. Can’t go wrong. Feel free to message me for more info if you end up at Davis! Also FYI the off campus rents are some of the most affordable of all the UCs or even SLO. If you can’t tell, we have loved having her there and will miss our visits after next year. At least we have SLO for the next 4!
