Trying to determine how easy it is for a Spring transfer to Amherst to get fully integrated with their (non-freshman) class, socially :

Will a mid-year transfer likely be among mostly freshmen?

Do most upperclassmen live in the dorms? Or do a lot of them move off campus altogether?

I read someplace that 42% of the junior class takes “year abroad”, is that about right ?
