I am a freshman going to a University of California, and I am living off campus, in student apartments. I chose not to live in the dorms because I wanted my own space and stuff. Now it is ALL students who live in these apartments, but they are all upper classmen and already have their groups of friends. so I hardly met any of  them and the ones I did didn't care for freshman. I have no roomate, I live alone, so I get very lonley and it sucks cuz then I feel all down and stuff. Then the people right across from me hung out with me and I realized that over time (couple weeks of hanging out) they were just kind of being nice, when in realitty I am still an outsider to them. It really sucks. Also, all the girls I have met already have boyfriends and the only girls left I have no desire to meet, and no my expectations aren't to high. Finally, I am taking 12 instead of 16 units and I am still finding it difficult, and I graduated High School with a 4.3 cummulative. So my workload is a lot and hard, my so called only group of friends are fake, I am lonely, and right now at the moment I am very high but it helped me to realize all this. Thanks for listening, HELP!

Ah, the wonderful Counter Strike.

I once wrote an essay for a class explaining what my dorm hall was like, and I was sure to put in the incessent sound of bombs and shooting.

No, you can transfer to and from USC, but it's easier to transfer between UCs as they all share a same bond (like a tree, that has different branches, it's eaier to get to one branch from another rather than jumping to a new tree).

Ooo! I remember now. What I was talking about was colleges being Regionally accredited! Yeah, that's what the lady said.

Anywho, so many similes!

you just started, how do you know you won't like it later?
JennyColada Posted at 12:12 pm on Sep. 7, 2006
^^^ That's cool! I wonder how many other states have programs like this.
bluejaybabe Posted at 11:47 am on Sep. 7, 2006
Texas has that as well.  For the University of Texas:(Austin is the main one) but  we have one in San Antonio, El Paso, and I believe in other cities as well I just can't think of them at the moment.  But they do have a program that you can get into to make it easier to get accepted into UT, granted the fact you have a certain gpa and other things as well.

USC is just a private university I believe.

Most schools don't really have systems like the UC system does. I don't really know why we're (meaning California) so special, but it's nice, because it's really easy (well, easier) to transfer between the UC colleges (as they tend to work together and sometimes even have special programs with one another).


Ok, so USC doesn't have that system were you can transfer to one college to another? Because, I here in some cases, you can't transfer from one college to another unless the college is...um...I forgot the name. It's like, Regionally transferable...or something with big words. Lol! Do you know what i'm talking about?

USC stands for University of Southern California, so what do you mean?  

And, i'm not in collage at the moment...



The University of Southern California is not in the UC system, it is a different university.

UCs include: UCR, UCSD, UCLA, UCSB, UCSF, UCSC, and probably others that I've forgotten.


Oh, how interseting. So, what would USC be under if anything?

UC = University of California.

It's a series of colleges (or Universities as you'd say) that includes UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles), UCSD (University of California at San Diego), etc.
