Anybody knows where can I find info about dorm & renting apartment? I’ve been living in apartment for the last 3 years, kinda got used to that. How does apartment compared to dorm regarding cost & other things?
Any help will be greatly appreciated :")
@Platocrat your gpa is pi… .(Srry math nerd here)
@goldencub Yep 
I was secretly hoping to get into Cal or UCLA given their standing on the philosophical gourmet ranking, so I’m totally stoked!
@lindyk8 Thanks! I volunteered a while back doing network administration type stuff at a local elementary school and I was president of the philosophy club at my CC for 2 semesters, but that’s pretty much it.

@platocrat, maybe it’s your avatar!
I feel like everyone who got in is going to sir here. Do they really have room for everyone?
@Salmanthgr8 , I’m immediately going to SIR to UC Berkeley Haas for Business Administration if I’m in. That’ll free up one spot for Business Econ.
@Salmanthgr8 If they didn’t have space, they wouldn’t offer a place!
