Housing at UCSD is also a nightmare. They finally started to offer 2yr guarantee but they need 4yr guarantee like UCLA. UCSD students also lived in their cars and UCSB had homeless students living in parking structures. This all happened in 2021 when students were returning to in person attendance. I just don’t believe that UCSC has the worst housing crisis of all the UCs. The housing situation is bad everywhere and UCSD just built a brand new college (8) for 3,000 more beds. Santa Cruz just needs to allocate more space for housing or stop admitting students that will never find housing.
