<p>Be careful what you wish for in transferring to UCI… I’m currently a first year student here, and I hate it too. I know you said you don’t like the party scene, but UCI is at the complete opposite end of the spectrum - it’s a bore. There is nothing to do here. Not that I’m a party person by any means, but there is not much going on at all. Luckily I’m close enough that I can escape and come home on the weekends. But I am looking to transfer to UCLA as well. I was waitlisted as a freshman applicant, still hoping to there as it is the place I feel that I will truly fit in. Also in the process of changing my major, looking for a program that fits me. Stressful times.</p>
