Guide to UC Irvine's Dorms

Living in Vista Del Campo Norte (ACC) at UC Irvine

University of California, Irvine (UCI) is a public research university located in Irvine, California, United States.

UCI offers integrated living and learning environments through its on-campus housing options. These options include traditional residence halls, undergraduate theme houses, and graduate apartments, along with support from professional and student staff available 24/7. Additionally, American Campus Communities provides furnished apartments for both undergraduate and graduate students.

Middle Earth housing offers a range of dorm experiences, from the newer, well-equipped Towers—with amenities like daily-cleaned bathrooms and on-floor laundry—to the classics that are a bit older and may lack modern facilities like sufficient power outlets and working elevators. Students value the proximity of Middle Earth to academic buildings and social centers, essential for a balanced college experience. Although some find the classics cramped and in need of updates, the Towers are often described as akin to a hotel, providing cleaner and more spacious living conditions. Regardless of the specific building, many residents emphasize the impact of roommates on their overall experience. Social dynamics and communal living are central, with shared bathrooms and common cooking areas where students can bond and create lasting memories.
