Re housing, I cannot really help, since there may be off-campus housing that is cheaper than dorms, where my son will stay – perhaps call the campus housing office? Or call and ask admissions office what office to call. Your financial aid may allow you to stay in the dorms and be on the meal plan, so financial aid office may be able to help you as well. Just keep calling people til you get the answers you need – they are there to help you.

For the writing test, go to elwr.ucr.edu to register. For the math test, go to arc.ucr.edu/placement. First confirm that you have to take the tests – if you have SAT/ACT or AP scores high enough, you may qualify to skip the English, and certain majors don’t need to take the math exam at all, so read each site carefully.

Happy to help with other questions if I can. Good luck!
