  • since its college admissions season, I wanted to share some advice i had for incoming UCI freshman based off my own freshman year experience :) includes visuals from my freshman year
    Time Stamps:
    00:00 - 00:40 intro
    00:41 - 01:20 move in day and ID cards
    01:21 - 04:17 dorms/housing, best places to live on campus, finding time for yourself with roommates
    04:18 - 06:24 all about meal plans
    06:25 - 08:17 best study spaces on campus
    08:18 - 10:56 quarter system is hard, self care and keeping yourself sane, taking advantage of campus resources

    Thank you for this! I just got accepted into UCI as a transfer a couple weeks ago and I'm struggling to decide so this video definitely helped me a lot :) Question: how difficult is it registering for classes? so far I've heard a mix bag of opinions and I would love to hear your perspective.

    • @reungg
      @reungg  Год назад +1

      congrats!! im glad this vid helped :) for picking classes it’s not difficult once you get used to it. I say its definitely a little confusing in the beginning only since its this new website you are using that is unfamiliar, but you basically just add in a code after searching if its available and thats it! hope this helped if not lmk LOL

    Thanks so much for making this video. I just got accepted as out-of-state student. I wonder if the school have car parking permit for on-campus resident? Also, does UCI lend laptop or ipad to students for study or we have to buy our own?

    • @reungg
      @reungg  Год назад +1

      Hi! thank you for watching :) the school has a campus permit that you can purchase online and there are different options you can choose! alsoo unfortunately UCI doesnt give students any devices so everything has to be purchased ourselves. congrats on ur acceptance!!
