If you rent/move a small refrigerator/microwave into a UCSC room, you will likely need one 9 or 10 foot 14AWG (15 amp) appliance cord and one 9 foot or 10 foot outdoor 14AWG (15 amp) extension cord. The rental companies do not provide them. The local ACE hardware in Santa Cruz ran out of the 9 foot appliance cords the first week. Parents, buy them and bring with you. You cannot use two appliance cords in the same outlet because they usually have a perpendicular plug end that interferes with the other outlet. One plug can be perpendicular (appliance) while the other is a straight plug (outdoor extension) or both can be straight plugs. Lower than 15 amp cords are not acceptable.
It is hard to get completely off campus and enjoy what Santa Cruz has to offer. Please try to make it down to Steamers Lane, Natural Bridges and 41st if u can.
Hiii! I really enjoyed the video, thanks for all the information. I don't even know if one day I'll be able to go there but I dream of it. I am from Colombia, South America and well it is pretty hard to find financial aid, I want to go to do the master of biological sciences in ecology and evolutionary biology and I really feel close to it by watching this videos, lol so dumb. Thanks for your motivation and dedication, it is really helpful and I hope you are doing great !
My intro classes my first year were the biggest, gen chem 1a was around 500, but my more specific major classes are 20-50 and most of my classes now, even if they're more general, are around 100-200 people.
When my mom went, freshman were required to live on campus, but the application now let’s you choose between university housing and off campus housing. I think the most important thing to take note of is that freshman are *guaranteed* housing
No, but like Ezekiel said freshmen are guaranteed housing and finding housing in sc can be pretty difficult especially if you don't have people to live with. But I know some ppl who are from sc so they just live at home, even their first year.
Wave Moretto I’m going to be a freshman and I’m likely going to live off campus, do you think it’s fairly easy to use the bus transportation to get to campus?
