Overview of ERC Living Areas

Most freshmen begin their stay at UCSD in on-campus housing where they have access to resources designed to assist in the transition from home to college and to support individual growth and development. On-campus living offers programs and unique opportunities to expand and enhance educational experiences, and provide exposure to the ideas and points of view of diverse populations of fellow students.

International House

Affiliated with ERC, International House (fondly known as I-House) is a campus-wide living learning program, open to all residents of sophomore standing and above. Each apartment is a mix of International and American students who are not only willing to share their cultures and engage in intercultural exchange, but are also willing to support I-House programs through language tables, cultural nights, intramural sports, seminars and socials. Admission is by application and, dependent upon space, is conducted at the end of fall and winter quarter as well as for the academic year as a whole.
