UC San Diego (UCSD) (2024-2025)

[junior pulsar]

god damn

yeha

i gotta give a shot

[dim yoke]

no

it's just the amount of classes you have to take

lol

unless you do three years

then it's fine

but you're not finishing with 60 sem units though

[junior pulsar]

oh

[dim yoke]

you need calc sequence, linalg + ode, physics sequence, and engineering sequence

[junior pulsar]

yeah

[dim yoke]

though i forget if thats required for ucsd's engi

ill check after this stupid fucking data science class

[junior pulsar]

lmaoo

alr alr

[dim yoke]

giving this fucker 1/5 on rmp five times

[junior pulsar]

idt its that much

not sure

[dim yoke]

nha it prolly is

[junior pulsar]

lemme see

[dim yoke]

ik engi has shitty seequences

but you can check

just know that if its listed as "optional" it's probably actually mandatory

[junior pulsar]

https://jacobsschool.ucsd.edu/admissions/transfers

?

[dim yoke]

because youre still going to be competing against people who actually have those classes

[junior pulsar]

is this the site

[dim yoke]

no pull up assist.org

[junior pulsar]

yeah

yeah im on it

is it all this stuff or what?

[dim yoke]

no

hold on

[junior pulsar]

oh 💀

[dim yoke]

https://assist.org/transfer/results?year=75&institution=110&agreement=7&agreementType=to&view=agreement&viewBy=major&viewSendingAgreements=false&viewByKey=75/110/to/7/Major/a54fe9cc-2c6d-462f-a7f6-08dca807bc76

gg

full maths sequence, physics, chem 1, engineering

thats fun

you have a good one though

tbf its not really the fact you wouldnt be able to learn

[junior pulsar]

💀

[dim yoke]

just that cramming into four terms is a bitch

so id probablyr recommend doing winter/summer too

if you did cc

[junior pulsar]

i mean i have ap credits

why doesnt assist allow you to show from a 4 year bruh

[dim yoke]

because uc transfer isnt exactly built for non-cc

[junior pulsar]

csus 😭

oh well

ill give it a shot

wont like my ap scores give credit too

like calculus

chemistry

physics

[nimble flicker]

just go to cc if u really wanna go to ucsd lol

it’s def better than from a csu

ucsd website says like 90% of transfers are from cc

[dim yoke]

well yeah

[junior pulsar]

yeah i know

[dim yoke]

master plan of higher edcuation

[junior pulsar]

well my parents wont let me go cc

[dim yoke]

unfortunate

[nimble flicker]

convince them otherwise

[junior pulsar]

cause then they'll just be like go to penn state

for aero

gotta take the risk

i have sjsu or penn state

for aero

[dim yoke]

i hate the ten nachos

by the wy

way

[dim yoke]

issue is that stem in 3 years is a hard bargain

hell summer/winter classes can be too

just go to sjsu

sjsu has good connections anyway youll be fine lol

[junior pulsar]

thats my current choice

[dim yoke]

sjsu is like the sdsu of socal

so youre fine

[junior pulsar]

yeah i know

ucsd js been my dream

[dim yoke]

lock in, network

[junior pulsar]

so i wanna give it another shot

[dim yoke]

yeah no for sure

yeah dont worry

youll be fine

[junior pulsar]

like if it doesnt work out transfering its fine

ill prolly finish my degree at sjsu

[dim yoke]

awesome

[junior pulsar]

and try getting masters at ucsd

[dim yoke]

youll do well

honestly

unis are stupid

[nimble flicker]

yeah if ur willing to go to sjsu that’s fine

[dim yoke]

berkeley is stupid

[junior pulsar]

😭

[dim yoke]

ucla is stupid

[nimble flicker]

thought u were like dead set on ucsd

[dim yoke]

everything is stupid

tbh

you know

cc is stupid too

fuck this shit

[junior pulsar]

nah like i am but its not like i cant do anything now after being rejected LOL

[dim yoke]

i just wanna retire mang

my ass is homeless

[junior pulsar]

what major?

[dim yoke]

bleh

stats

[junior pulsar]

js curious

[dim yoke]

its lame

[nimble flicker]

what was ur gpa

[dim yoke]

im switching when i transfer though

in retrospect i should have done a diff major

berkeley stats sucks

[junior pulsar]

3.66 uw 😭

[dim yoke]

despite being ranked #2 on usnews

lmao

[nimble flicker]

oh rip

[junior pulsar]

i was not locked in my freshmen and first year soph year

[iron forge]

so real

[dim yoke]

everything sucks

[iron forge]

i wish i was born so rich i never need a job

[dim yoke]

nah im just tired of grinding

[junior pulsar]

i honestly had 0 clue about college admissions and the nature of how competitive this can get until like mid soph year

💀

[dim yoke]

id say "cant wait for summer" but i might have to retake actuary exams

[iron forge]

same same

[dim yoke]

so fuck this shit

girlie cannot catch a break

[iron forge]

r u a bay area as well

[nimble flicker]

dw i got waitlisted with a 4.4 uc gpa and a 4.0 uw but idrc about ucsd

[junior pulsar]

yeah

[junior pulsar]

idk waht uc's be doing each year

😭

one of my fam friends got rejected or wl almost everywhere they applied and ended up getting in berk

[nimble flicker]

idk I really care about college life don’t wanna go to socially dead school anyway :P

[junior pulsar]

is it actually socially deda

i love ucsd cause its right next to beach

[nimble flicker]

apparently so no one talks to u

[junior pulsar]

the campus is amazing

[junior pulsar]

oh 💀

[dim yoke]

uni is what you make of it

[junior pulsar]

(anything for sd still)

[dim yoke]

but certain cultures push towards certain places

i will say that ucsd does have a social life

[junior pulsar]

i honestly thought id be able to get purdue too

but. i got deffered lmao

[dim yoke]

depending on how you define it

[junior pulsar]

yeah i think u gotta put urself out there

[dim yoke]

im gonna p/np this class

i dont need it anyway

[junior pulsar]

😭

[dim yoke]

except for finaid

[junior pulsar]

yeah

[dim yoke]

i copped 1800 from pell

so

whatever

[junior pulsar]

dang

1800

[dim yoke]

not like i use the money anyway

[dim yoke]

cc doesnt give a lot of pell

to students

[junior pulsar]

oh

[dim yoke]

so i get the bare minimum

[junior pulsar]

wait if ur homeless

did ur college like arrange a place to stay

or some?

cc

[dim yoke]

lmao

no

i was in a shelter now im couch surfing

[junior pulsar]

u had to do it urself?

[dim yoke]

adjacent

so

shrug

[junior pulsar]

ohh

[nimble flicker]

cc is free in cali 🥀

[dim yoke]

i mean they told me to go to a cc

[nimble flicker]

which is really good

[dim yoke]

okay

so heres the thing

that is with an asterisk

[junior pulsar]

idts

[dim yoke]

its free

with an asterisk

not all ccs have full promise programs

[junior pulsar]

u have to pay fees and all

or some

[dim yoke]

multiple of my cc districts do

[junior pulsar]

i think my local cc costs 5k

[dim yoke]

but not all

[junior pulsar]

or im just tweaking

[dim yoke]

there are promise programs

[junior pulsar]

but idt my cc is free

[dim yoke]

but not all ccs have them

ccpg exists

[nimble flicker]

o really idk de anza was free for me lol

[dim yoke]

but it doesnt cover all fees

[dim yoke]

dac promise only covers <$200k income

fh covers everyone though

[junior pulsar]

i did like 2 de courses from there LMAO

rate my prof fro the cs teachers

[dim yoke]

i only know this because i have an account with them

[junior pulsar]

were insanse

[nimble flicker]

my family makes like 60k a year 🥀 my sai is -1500

[dim yoke]

mine is too

because im homeless

[junior pulsar]

oh

[nimble flicker]

ong lol

[junior pulsar]

fasfsa is not giving me anything 💀

they gave me a 5k loan bruh

like i dont get the point of a 5k loan

[dim yoke]

im probably full ride with all ucs but like

fuck this semester man

i have senioritis

already

lmao

[junior pulsar]

me rn

[dim yoke]

nah its lowk kinda bad though

im taking 60 sem units

so mind me if im like tired asf

of ts

[nimble flicker]

i took it super chill senior year with only 2 ap classes that are p easy so I don’t rly have senioritis cuz there’s like no work

[dim yoke]

yea thats fair

[junior pulsar]

oh yeha

[junior pulsar]

im doing 5 rly

calc
Physics
gov
macro

💀

[dim yoke]

i did like

4 aps? 5 aps? last year

of senior year

calc bc, stats, physics 1

[junior pulsar]

wait

[dim yoke]

i forget what else

[junior pulsar]

does ur cc not waive classes

with ap credits?

[dim yoke]

oh they do

they do lmao

[junior pulsar]

do those not count towards ur 60 credits

[dim yoke]

i just took one math class a semester though

yes

they do

[junior pulsar]

alr alr

[dim yoke]

doesnt mean you finished the major prep

[nimble flicker]

i only have micro and chem and chem is light so idk

[dim yoke]

maths sequence alone is like

[nimble flicker]

I don’t even go to class half the time except for labs

[dim yoke]

around 20 sem units

[junior pulsar]

yeah i know know

[dim yoke]

engi sequence maybe like 10-15

then physics around 10-12

then chem is 3-4

[nimble flicker]

but I think transferring from cc is mostly just gpa based

[dim yoke]

oh yeah

that + classes

which is why im not too worried

i have a 4.0 + 200 sem units

under my belt

so im chilling

[nimble flicker]

ur def chilling

[junior pulsar]

what abt piqs

[nimble flicker]

they do look at them

but it’s not as holistic with it

[junior pulsar]

also on trnasfer apps? do u need like ecs and all?

[dim yoke]

cal/uci/ucla

look at them

lol

[junior pulsar]

oh

[nimble flicker]

yeah I checked u do

[junior pulsar]

do u need ecs on transfer apps too

[junior pulsar]

oh

[dim yoke]

yea

[nimble flicker]

but it’s not freshman admissions where it’s like split even

[junior pulsar]

ohh

[nimble flicker]

gpa is def like the biggest factor

[dim yoke]

yea its mostly a stats check

though people have gotten in with essays

if you scroll through berkeley spmp's instagram there's a couple of kids who had stellar ecs/stories but shitty gpas

[nimble flicker]

idk if ucsd does tag I forgot

[junior pulsar]

imma be locked in 🙏🏿

[dim yoke]

no

[nimble flicker]

but that’s also an option for other ucs

[dim yoke]

everyone but cal, ucla, ucsd

[nimble flicker]

wow the 3 top ones

lol

[dim yoke]

yeah

generally

[nimble flicker]

wait but lwk lock in at sjsu and go for a masters

[dim yoke]

if i were dead set on actuary id kill for ucsb tag though

[nimble flicker]

I think that’s ur best bet

If u really can’t go to cc

[dim yoke]

ucsb actuary is like

rank 1

imo

clears so easily

[nimble flicker]

im prob commuting there for ee if I don’t get cal or off waitlists

commiting*

[dim yoke]

bs + ms + exams paid for

[iron forge]

wait yeah it is so good

i was actually looking into actuarial science

but so many exams

[dim yoke]

no

you just need p & fm

to be competitive

if youre actually the tryhard of your school it isnt that hard to clear p & fm with self-studying

in fact idt people go into any jobs full certified

[iron forge]

dont you have to keep on doing more and more exams as you progress in career

[dim yoke]

yes

they pay you to learn that shit though

[warm comet]

Don’t think math cs is impacted so should be easy

[nimble flicker]

i wonder how ucsd does look at waitlist though

cds says it’s ranked so based off of ?

[dim yoke]

off of

deez nuts

gott4em

[junior pulsar]

yeah

masters was always a plan

im gonna try attempting to transfer

nothing to loose

doesnt work out ill go for masters

[strong oracle]

lowkey i have a feeling the bay area reader had a bad day

lotta waitlists and rejections

[iron forge]

yep. ngl i might end up having to go like scu or smthing if ucsb, ucla, or berk doesnt go well

[mint parcel]

pretty easy actually

math cs is uncapped, data science is not

[dim yoke]

okay the thing is that ds is its own department at ucsd

whether or not you all care for that is up to you

[dim yoke]

which also means they have their own set of curriculum in their department

[junior pulsar]

ucs r just money hungry icl

😭

they want the 80k tuition

[lilac socket]

Why the fuck did they undeclare me

Hell no bro i want mech e

yk what i didn’t want ucsd anyway

[strong oracle]

dav?

[iron forge]

wl 😭

3 wl for ucs so far

if i get another im genuinely going to flip

[rough marlin]

Idts that's gonna be a problem
The other way around is pretty hard ig

[strong oracle]

god damn

yeah our local uc application reader def had a bad day

waitlisted everyone and their mother

[versed oar]

i think my area also had someone who was having a bad day

[rotund geyser]

I choose nanoengineering as my alternate major for waillist as its not capped

does that increase chances?

[lilac socket]

Guys so if mech e is capped what do i do?

[green cedar]

you just take their screening courses and hope for thebest

[green cedar]

from what I've read, waitlist is already ranked, so hard to tell

[brazen osprey]

had a banner and got accepted

[onyx hazel]

holy portal astrology

[lilac socket]

That actually sucks

No way im admitting if i don’t get a guarantee on this

[sullen meadow]

from what i've heard they could just accept you if they have enough spots

[lilac socket]

Well they clearly didn’t I’m undeclared

[green cedar]

I managed to switch into EE, and although it's a different major I'd say the process isn't as impossible at it seems

[lilac socket]

man if they can only settle mech E spots with cage fights

[green cedar]

assuming you have a strong math/physics background

[lilac socket]

Yeah we’re good

[green cedar]

but honestly, if you have an offer for MechE somewhere else

you could consider that as well

[lilac socket]

howw

when do they decide that? After i commit?

[sullen meadow]

uh i'll have to ask him

[green cedar]

this is like very, very rare

[sullen meadow]

shit

manifesting

[lilac socket]

bs in my opinion

[sullen meadow]

btw, is it possible to switch to an uncapped engineering before you officially enroll/start? or do i have to do that after 1st year

[green cedar]

@lilac socket so these are the requirements for mech e

honestly, all these classes are really doable

[lilac socket]

That’s not a problem

[green cedar]

20A/20B is skippable with AP Calc AB/BC

[lilac socket]

It can literally be in topology and I wouldn’t care

[green cedar]

2A/2B is skippable with AP Physics C

Chem 6A's a breeze

[lilac socket]

Yeah i didn’t take a single AP

So yeah

[green cedar]

I do believe it's possible

[sullen meadow]

okok

[green cedar]

even so, those classes aren't that bad

[green cedar]

u trying to go into nanoe/structural e?

[lilac socket]

I’ll manage either way

[sullen meadow]

would i have to contact an AO/counselor about doing this? it's not in the major change portal

[lilac socket]

idk why my dad likes cool sounding majors

[green cedar]

I believe only those two are the uncapped engineering majors

[lilac socket]

he told me to study some nano eng and nuclear eng

lol

[green cedar]

honestly I might wait to do this until after you commit and all that

once you get a UCSD account you can ask at vac.ucsd.edu

[sullen meadow]

got into the college, didn't get into chem e. nano e sounds interesting and i'd be willing to do that for a little while before i try to switch to chem e

[sullen meadow]

kk

[green cedar]

mhm, I actually used to be chem E

and from what I know you can switch between the two

without doing much since they're in the same department

[lilac socket]

Tbh i wanna get the knowledge for a chem degree, but I don’t want to study it for a degree

[green cedar]

chemeng is not about chemistry really

[sullen meadow]

oh sick

[lilac socket]

huh

how?

[green cedar]

if you commit and come to triton day you'll find out

:)

[sullen meadow]

another question: do dual enrollment classes count towards your overall GPA?

like if you were to use a dual enrollment class to cover a req/get credits

[green cedar]

as in classes taken concurrently while in college?

[sullen meadow]

classes taken in HS

[onyx hazel]

yeah

a B in gen psych at a CC lowered down my UC gpa

[sullen meadow]

sorry meant college GPA

[lilac socket]

I’m an international student it’ll be a little hard to visit before actually settling

U seem to be studying there

[green cedar]

I believe no

I will have to check on that though

[onyx hazel]

i think it depends

[green cedar]

well yes

[onyx hazel]

if you want it counted

idk i've heard from some that you can choose to retake the class or smt i'm praying that the B doesn't lower down my GPA

[green cedar]

cheme is less about the typical "chemistry" like a periodic table, but more of learning processing systems

[lilac socket]

Easier than i thought

[sullen meadow]

sure hope so

[lilac socket]

I thought it was pure chemistry

[green cedar]

nah there's a pure chemistry major for that

[lilac socket]

WAIT

If take a double major with chem eng, would it add that much extra courses or not?

[green cedar]

you mean double majoring in chemistry + chem eng?

[lilac socket]

No mech e and chem e

[rotund geyser]

wdym?

[green cedar]

you cannot double major in two engineering degrees

[green cedar]

so apparently UCSD waitlists are ranked. which i'm assuming means that you're number whatever on a long waitlist line. now no one knows how they decide it so your alternate major being whatever shouldn't really matter

[onyx hazel]

wow i didn't even know that it is ranked

[green cedar]

yes I didn't as well

[onyx hazel]

how do they rank it by though

[green cedar]

who knows

[onyx hazel]

that's so scummy ranking a waitlist and not letting the applicants know

[green cedar]

based on memory they don't reveal it to anyone not even counselors

I mean sorta yea

I know like in other countries, Korea for example, they tell you your waitlist number

not here though

[onyx hazel]

but korea's school system's just miserable and this is the only solace they can get

[green cedar]

lmao

true

[sullen meadow]

would you really want to know though

[onyx hazel]

i mean it'd be best if i knew where i was

[sullen meadow]

like i feel like its better if you don't

[onyx hazel]

at least i know if i should commit there or not or like feel excited or not but i get what you mean

[sullen meadow]

especially if you're towards the cutoff

[onyx hazel]

like imagine being 2617th on the list in 2024

[sullen meadow]

or 2616th

the imposter syndrome would be insane

[lilac socket]

damn it

[wintry rain]

taken from ucsd waitlist faq

[green cedar]

trust me

you can't handle the load

[sullen meadow]

"not ranked"

[onyx hazel]

they're lying their asses off in that FAQ

[wintry rain]

Don’t shoot the messenger just posting what it says on the faq 😔

[onyx hazel]

we didn't even shoot you 😭 we shot the FAQ dude

[wintry rain]

Rip faq dude fly high 🕊️

[strong oracle]

i hope its ranked lowkey

[sullen meadow]

they could be looking up at us rn 🙏

[wintry rain]

I just know I’m last on that list tho

[onyx hazel]

why do you expect yourself to be high

[strong oracle]

cuz im cool like that

[wintry rain]

I have some friends with perfect gpas who were waitlisted

[onyx hazel]

frrr

[strong oracle]

well fuck maybe not ranked

[onyx hazel]

they were looking for something

[wintry rain]

I’m surprised I was grouped in with them one of our valedictorians was waitlisted

[strong oracle]

afaik the only person who got into ucsd from my school got into caltech 💔

[sullen meadow]

fr

so many of my friends got wl or rejected 😭

[onyx hazel]

i wish i could give other people admissions to schools

like some people would kill for davis

[strong oracle]

i mentioned ucsd in my piqs

[wintry rain]

Gen ik 3 people out of the 80 or so kids that applied that got in

[strong oracle]

they waitlisted me

[onyx hazel]

💔

[strong oracle]

no aura man

[wintry rain]

Me with ucla 😟

[onyx hazel]

don't even talk about that i'm balding rn

[strong oracle]

ucla better let my ass in

i applied to a major less than 100 ppl apply to

[wintry rain]

I volunteered at a ucla hospital and have like 200 hours I HAD TO BRO😭

[strong oracle]

probably

[wintry rain]

Either a blessing or a curse

[onyx hazel]

i wish i lived near UCLA so i could do that 💔

[sullen meadow]

i wouldn't mind a ucla acceptance 🙏

[strong oracle]

but its the college so they dont gaf

[onyx hazel]

i have 200+ hours at a local hospital serving migrant workers

[strong oracle]

aura

[onyx hazel]

spanish helps tons i might minor in spanish

[wintry rain]

I’d rather berk than la but I’m not picky ILL TAKE ANYTHING 🙏🙏

[onyx hazel]

bruh

[lilac socket]

I mean i knew a guy that got both mechanical and aeronautical degrees, because in his senior year he saw that the classes were similar and he got 2 degrees by the end of that senior year

Idk how he did it exactly

[wintry rain]

Dude that’s so cool tho and I’m sure u made a huge impact

[lilac socket]

To support you, i have buzzed my hair

[onyx hazel]

i mean the majority of those who went to that hospital were migrant workers not all of them

idk if i made impact but i wrote one of my UC piqs about language barriers and mutual human respect or smt

[sullen meadow]

a double degree lwk sounds nice

[lilac socket]

Lmao

[onyx hazel]

i want biology and music deadass

being a piano player sounds sick rn

[wintry rain]

That sounds like a good piq topic tho

[lilac socket]

It’s even nicer when you get the second one by barely working

[sullen meadow]

i would lwk enjoy something like chem e - history

[onyx hazel]

idek at this point everyone wrote their piqs a day before the due date 😭

[onyx hazel]

transfer to revelle college please

[lilac socket]

Ahem

[wintry rain]

Cough cough me

[onyx hazel]

all the humanities courses are history courses

[lilac socket]

tbh i think i did very well

[sullen meadow]

fuck man i wish

why did i get roosevelt </3

[wintry rain]

I ranked Roosevelt second 😭

[sullen meadow]

i ranked it last 😭

[onyx hazel]

you can try to move to revelle since they're accepting the transfer thingies

just prove that you can graduate 2 quarters earlier if you were to transfer to revelle lol

[wintry rain]

I love the history and language requirements at some of the colleges

[onyx hazel]

did you rank revelle first

i've heard people say that revelle's really bad but to me it doesn't sound THAT bad

but i won't know until i've gone there

[wintry rain]

nah Muir

But tbh only cuz my friend said it was the best

[lilac socket]

Good luck lmao

[onyx hazel]

muir is super flexible

[wintry rain]

Girl I didn’t even get in so😭

[lilac socket]

more blue haired people than i can count

[lilac socket]

girl is crazy

[mystic void]

is it hard to get ur first choice college in general

[onyx hazel]

i got into my first choice since i ranked revelle first and no one likes revelle

[lilac socket]

Also 25% admission rate why didn’t u get in

[onyx hazel]

prolly capped major

[sullen meadow]

mmw is about to murder me

[lilac socket]

Tbh i couldn’t tell the difference

[mystic void]

ah i ranked warren first bc im engineering

[lilac socket]

Nah i did mech e and got undeclared

They wanted me baddd

[onyx hazel]

i ranked revelle first since it has premed geneds mostly

[sullen meadow]

same

[onyx hazel]

and it's good for research apparently?

since the humanities courses improve your writing skills tenfold

[lilac socket]

Ranked eighth first for some reason

At least its new!

[onyx hazel]

best dorms

new dorms = best

[lilac socket]

Oh i got into it lol

[onyx hazel]

my friend got into there for engineering

idk why he didn't rank warren first but we made the list together for different paths 😭

[lilac socket]

Me too

But THEY MADE ME UNDECLAREDD

LIKE WHO DOES THAT

[mystic void]

i am ngl i had no clue how to rank them so i just looked at the walking distance from engineering 💀 + the gen eds are good for stem for warren

[onyx hazel]

undeclared engineering or just undeclared in general?

[sullen meadow]

in gen

[strong oracle]

u got warren right

[strong oracle]

7th exists buddy

[onyx hazel]

i thought warren was secluded there's like a line of all 7 of the colleges and warren is to the right

[mystic void]

yeah

[onyx hazel]

i know revelle is far away from the campus center since it's second from the bottom

[mystic void]

it is but it’s closed to engineering buildings

*closest

i think

[onyx hazel]

yeah it is

[mystic void]

it’s far from everything else tho

[lilac socket]

Just undeclared

Look if im not getting mech e im not going to their fancy rooms nor am i studying in their cool college

in that..pretty nice city tbh

Fuck ucsd is too good man

[onyx hazel]

it's a nerd's dream

not a lot of parties and just academic grind but a bit of relaxation just not the "drug and party" relaxation

[lilac socket]

I’d be lying if i wasn’t happy about getting admitted

Man my reaction video is a piece of work

[onyx hazel]

i was deadass ecstatic my dad yelled at me for screaming too loud

[lilac socket]

lol

I told my dad that i got in he was like 👍🏻

EVEN IOS KNOWS WHAT HE’LL SAY

[onyx hazel]

nonchalant dad

[onyx hazel]

lol

wait hold up eighth college is so far away from the engineering buildings

[lilac socket]

Yeah i kinda need the cardio

[onyx hazel]

i mean like REALLY far

at least you're near revelle where you'll hear the screams of humanities students all around

[lilac socket]

God no

man why do humanities subjects exist

[onyx hazel]

cause we love humans

and we've accomplished a lot by working together

but we also destroy the things we've made 💔

[lilac socket]

[lilac socket]

Yeah

[onyx hazel]

i'm gonna invest my savings into a bike

[lilac socket]

Tbh they’re all close together

it’s not that expensive bro dw

[onyx hazel]

sixth college seems kinda tiny

[lilac socket]

[lilac socket]

Okay thank u <3

[lilac socket]

[onyx hazel]

here's ASU's dorms even though it's not shwoning everything

it looks the same

except more jam packed probably

[onyx hazel]

UC berkeley's residence hall 😭

[sullen meadow]

erc

actually looks p nice

[onyx hazel]

yo the interior of these dorms pmo

for revelle

i cannot live in a triple like ts

now i know never to go to blake hall

[sullen meadow]

geisel isn't 24/7 anymore

pain

[onyx hazel]

now i need to study in my room ☹️

or the common area

wait argo hall looks amazing

[nimble flicker]

man that looks miserable

[onyx hazel]

this is probably the best it can get in revelle

[marsh crypt]

holy hell

[lilac socket]

Jacked 💪🏻

[lilac socket]

This looks like a house for a young chinese tech genius

[lilac socket]

Wtf is this

I’d rather rent an apartment outside

[onyx hazel]

no don't even ask i don't know either

i'd rather camp outside in a tent

[rough marlin]

Guys how is seventh college?

[lilac socket]

Bro the army corps have it better than that

[onyx hazel]

fire but kinda far

[lilac socket]

ya’ll are just uni students

humanities at that

[rough marlin]

Food and all is edible right?

[onyx hazel]

[lilac socket]

steaks, rice, fries, vegetables, fruits

[rough marlin]

Ahh okay

[onyx hazel]

nope

[lilac socket]

Bro fuck this i want red meat

[onyx hazel]

yeah 7th college is all the way up north near the business areas

[lilac socket]

Also who named them

Sixth, seventh, eighth

[onyx hazel]

idk why they gave up on giving names

[lilac socket]

Next ucsd college name prediction: Nivea

[sullen meadow]

nah erc started as 5th

they'll get names eventually

[onyx hazel]

6th college has waited 30 years i thought

nevermind

[lilac socket]

30 years to be named 6th is sad

[onyx hazel]

they waited 24 years

[white fern]

I believe a donor buys the name

[onyx hazel]

that's cool as hell

[white fern]

I might be wrong though, I only say that because thats how the colleges at UCSC got their names

[mortal lagoon]

Damn I didn’t know Costco club had bread like that

[strong oracle]

Day 3 of hoping I get off the ucsd waitlist

[strong oracle]

Self promo is wild

[white fern]

Tbh all UCs should have a Costco club

Creating the Costco club was a true W of yours

[mortal lagoon]

UC riverside and UC Santa Cruz have one

Others should start adopting

We should start chapters at each UC

[white fern]

Oh I didn't realize we have one

I have to look into that

[strong oracle]

Tsk tsk

If i go to davis I will start one 🤞

[mortal lagoon]

Fuck ye

[wintry rain]

Good day to be a ucsc admit 🙏

[south knoll]

Praying for may to bless me

[mortal lagoon]

[strong oracle]

On god

[lilac socket]

[plucky bison]

would any of you guys consider being in revelle a deal breaker for ucsd

[strong oracle]

As long as i go to ucsd I'll be happy 🤷

[nimble flicker]

did u do research on revelle LOL its humanities central there

[plucky bison]

fair

[strong oracle]

I like myself some humanities

[warm comet]

Nah

[onyx hazel]

[vital pilot]

[plucky bison]

[onyx hazel]

[plucky bison]

[plucky bison]

[plucky bison]

oh ur still ok then

[onyx hazel]

at least that's what i've heard

[plucky bison]

i see

im so happy i got into seventh

@onyx hazel was revelle ur first choice?

[onyx hazel]

but seventh is so far away from everywhere 😭

[onyx hazel]

muir

muir then revelle

[plucky bison]

best housing and best dining

and also

it's not as secluded as warren

[onyx hazel]

nah i'd bet sixth

[plucky bison]

☠️

[onyx hazel]

sixth is good at everything

[plucky bison]

true

idk

i put seventh 1st and sixth 2nd LOL

then marshall #3 and eighth #4

[onyx hazel]

mine was like muir and revelle then sixth and those were the only three that mattered

[plucky bison]

fair

[onyx hazel]

rest i did random order

i definitely didn't want to do ERC

[plucky bison]

i had muir warren erc and revelle at the bottom

i didnt want to risk getting into any of those 4

[strong oracle]

Should I send a loci

Will they like it

[plucky bison]

cant hurt

[onyx hazel]

nah that's good you put revelle on the bottom for meche

[strong oracle]

Lol

[onyx hazel]

but why'd you have warren near bottom i thought that was good for engineering

cause it's near all the engineering buildings

[vital pilot]

warren dorms are mid asf

[onyx hazel]

warren and revelle's dorms are by far the worst dorms

[warm comet]

That’s a lie, Marshall is worse than Warren

Though next school year Marshall will mog

[onyx hazel]

is the argo residence hall good in your opinion

for revelle

[warm comet]

I’m not in revelle so can’t answer that

[lean shadow]

i heard freshman don’t get the new dorms tho

i mean i got marshall so bless if we do but i heard we get the old ones

[lilac socket]

Revelle is everything lol. Need humanities, calc, language, other science shit too

[mortal lagoon]

W

[plucky bison]

@mortal lagoon which dorms are the best/worst in terms of living quality?

[mortal lagoon]

In seventh?

Seventh ecoflats are good

The towers usually have more problems

[plucky bison]

i meant like colleges ranked

[plucky bison]

i see

[mortal lagoon]

Towers prolly where u gonna end up tho lol

[plucky bison]

also i was telling my mom how awesome seventh was and i was like "brand new dorms! built only 15 years ago" and she was aghast

[mortal lagoon]

Elevator just straight up stops working

[plucky bison]

she was like 'thats old'

[mortal lagoon]

Naw that’s very new

[plucky bison]

[mortal lagoon]

In the scheme of all colleges

[plucky bison]

[plucky bison]

why is 6th better

[mortal lagoon]

Both of them brand new

8th built last year

[plucky bison]

i shouldve put 6th at 1

[mortal lagoon]

6th built 2020

6th is in the center of campus too

Which is easier for walking

Remember, ucsd is HUGE

2x the size of Disneyland

[green portal]

[plucky bison]

[plucky bison]

☠️

[mortal lagoon]

Realistically no

[plucky bison]

[mortal lagoon]

U can police report but bikes get stolen every day

[plucky bison]

who even steals bikes

other students? do people come on campus just to steal bikes?

[mortal lagoon]

A lot of ppl

Randoms

Not students

[plucky bison]

makes sense

[mortal lagoon]

They bring cutters at middle of night

[plucky bison]

what if i hid a pipe bomb inside the body

a remote pipe bomb

[serene geyser]

I think they’re changing the transfer to major system soon so idk what it’ll be like for you but for past students tbh u just had to do good in the intro classes and you’d almost basically get in

[mortal lagoon]

No comment

[plucky bison]

oh i know somebody who kept their bike in their dorm

[toxic glade]

[serene geyser]

Best club

[plucky bison]

fourth year housing...

[serene geyser]

I say having gone to one Costco club event ever

[mortal lagoon]

@mortal lagoon is it necessary (or practical lmfao) to have a car on campus

[mortal lagoon]

We also host rotisserie chicken event

[toxic glade]

costco club here i comr

[mortal lagoon]

Narr

Only if u live off campus

[plucky bison]

i see

[serene geyser]

Even if u live off campus it’s doable to exist without a car tbh

[plucky bison]

do you keep your gen eds even if you move off campus

yes right?

[serene geyser]

If u live in UC

bc of the 202/201

And the trolley

[plucky bison]

are those bus lines

[serene geyser]

Yeah

They’re every 5 minutes during peak hours

[mortal lagoon]

Buses are good

Lowk I did not explore sd enough

Which why I think car might be cool to have

Like I didn’t leave the 5 mile radius for the last 2 years 💀

[serene geyser]

I’ve transit to so many places in sd tho lol

[toxic glade]

do ppl go down to tijuana often? bc ik i will be if i do end up going

[serene geyser]

Like hillcrest is pretty easy to reach by transit and it’s a fun area

Esp if ur over 21 🤧

[mortal lagoon]

yea i cooked myself

its def possible

takes more time tho and u gotta wait, but it is free

all busses and trolly are free for students

[serene geyser]

I should make a transit map of all the places I’ve been on transit 😭

IKEA in mission valley :3 which is next to snapdragon

[stray thistle]
