* The Official UC Transfer Late-night Discussion Thread*

<p>ugh i feel like it would be dreadful to share 1 shower/toliet with 6 people. especially in the morning before class</p>

<p>That would be dreadful</p>

<p><em>cues the face of dread</em></p>

<p>D:</p>

<p>6 people… madness!</p>

<p>I feel like living in a plaza is wasting money because it’s the same price as suites! But then there’s the socializing aspect.</p>

<p>Even sharing with one person is more than enough for me. Girls are disgusting.</p>

<p>A psych major at Berkeley came onto this thread?! AMAZING! lol. </p>

<p>@ sakurax: I have SOOO many questions that I don’t even know where to begin. I’m not sure if I should leave them all here or PM them lol. Cal has been my dream school since I was a little kid, and if I get in, I’ll almost definitely be going. I’m also a Psych major, so I’m incredibly thankful that I’m lucky enough to hear from one who’s already at UCB! I really appreciate that you would come back and detail your experience for us. Personal experiences and specific information is invaluable. </p>

<p>lol my questions are:</p>

<ul>
<li>How are the upper div. psych classes? Easy, hard, fun? </li>
<li>Are you conducting research or working in a lab?</li>
<li>What grad schools are you considering applying to, and what field will you be entering into? </li>
<li>Where would you recommend transfers live for their first semester?</li>
<li>What sort of things do you do on the weekend?</li>
</ul>

<p>Thank you again for all of the help! You have no clue how happy I was when I saw that you were a Psych major lol.</p>

<p>guys are much grosser than girls</p>

<p>ewww imagine all the hairballs and morning make-up sessions…
face of dread indeed

<p>i really really want to get a double even if its a little bit more money…a triple is just wayyy too crammed</p>

<p>Ughh. Looking at the rates for housing at LA made me realize how expensive the ones in SD are.</p>

<p>its more expensive in sd?</p>

<p>check out these UCLA housing vids!!!

<p>Yeah I just got the pamphlet for The Village.</p>

<p>Rates for the 2010/2011 Academic Year:
Double rooms: $9,667 - $10,774
Single rooms: $10,322 - $11,385</p>

<p>No way, Westwood is much more expensive than La Jolla.</p>

<p>yeah a double in ucla is like 12-13k</p>

<p>People say The Village is expensive (13k) but Plazas and Suites are the same. And I hear The Village holds a much better experience, though UCSD’s food can’t compare to LA’s, hahah.</p>

<p>Going for a double with one room in LA is only 9,009 but SD has it starting at 9,667. LA has more choices, too :/</p>

<p>Oh I forgot to mention a con about the residence HALLS…</p>

<p>After 9PM, a hall resident has to sign any guests (up to 2 I believe) in and they give you a guest pass. Overnight guests aren’t allowed more than 4 overnight stays a month.</p>

<p>It’s such a hassle.</p>

<p>The Villages, for anyone who hasn’t seen them, have killer views of the ocean, but they are WAY isolated.</p>

<p>I’m leaning towards Plaza’s at UCLA!</p>

<p>erikuh—whats the deal with having guests at a plaza?</p>
