The thing about MIT is social life is highly dependent on what community you want to surround yourself with. MIT living groups are so diverse/distinct in personality that there is surely 1 environment you’ll feel comfortable with. The only problem, is you have to find it, which is why Orientation is such an important time because that’s when you choose your living group. I certainly did not visit around enough during orientation (because I took quite a few ASE’s), and now I kind of regret it. It’s a terrible feeling to know you would rather living in another entry/dorm after you are already assigned one.
