[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the UC's, the dorm situation can be challenging. My DD was assigned to a double room, but they put three students in the room. This has been a common practice. It's pretty crowded to have 3 girls in a room for 2 girls, and so that negatively impacted my DD's freshman year. The UC development office rep specifically told me (an OOS parent) that the UC's are mean to provide social and economic mobility for California residents. (This was a way of explaining why there were so few orientation resources for new students.) Also, the school spirit is not as much as it could be. Instead of paying to go OOS at a UC, I personally think you'd get more of a value attending a private college.[/quote] Totally agree. I encouraged my in state CA kids not to apply to UCs. Too crowded and feels like a warehouse education. Definitely at OOS rates, I’d choose private.[/quote]
