This dorm is three miles off of campus. Students have to bike these three miles or wait for the bus. The bike ride encounters three hills and is thus a trek for those who aren't professional athletes. The bus schedule is one of the most confusing things to understand - that coming from a UC student. Although the facilities are nice the lack of connection to a campus makes this form undesirable.

Housing in Isla Vista
Housing in Isla Vista can be difficult to find. Students have to plan up to a year in advance to get a good location and nice place. Del Playa street is pretty pricey. True it is on the ocean but for a college aged kid on a college budget it is unrealistic to afford. Plus all house require one to find at least 5 other roommates.

If You Don't Have a Permit - Don't Park!
Parking on campus is so expensive! it costs a minimum of three dollars. even if i just need to run in and drop off a paper i still have to pay for parking. this is because the school thrives on taking money from students without parking passes. $45 dollar parking tickets if you're even one minute over the time limit.
