If you take those 5 classes your first quarter, there is a decent/good likelihood you won’t get that high GPA you need. Those courses are all fairly demanding and you might die with 5. I personally only took 13 units my first quarter to get situated - you probably can’t do that few in your situation but it really is a HUUGEE transition from high school to college and you don’t want to get burnt out immediately.

If you’re a guy I don’t think triples are that bad… unless you have awful roommates of course, which is a possibility. Triples are worse for girls because they have a lot more stuff and the room gets very cluttered. From my experience.

Anddd if you want to meet a lot of people you should join the greek system or clubs/intramural sports, your dorm room won’t affect your social situation too much. Just my 2 cents.
