Class of '29 chemistry major from the Bay Area.
I’m probably headed to UCI (waiting to decide in a couple weeks). So thankful to have been accepted to Irvine.

I don’t have a car and strongly prefer to not own one (do have a driver’s license). How feasible is undergrad life using rideshare and Zipcars? The airport looks pretty close to campus for flights back to the Bay Area.

Do most upperclassmen live off campus? If so, owning a car would then be kind of obligatory?
-
Do most CHC students live in designated honors housing for all 4 years, or just 1st year?
-
Does CHC help improve on-campus housing choices including apartment options after your 1st year? Not sure if CHC guaranteed on-campus housing is a huge benefit if most students live off-campus after 1st year?

Davis and Santa Barbara student culture seems laid-back and supportive… Berkeley is cut-throat… how abut Irvine’s culture?
