Santa Catalina Hall

Santa Catalina Hall

(1 review)

Santa Catalina is a residence hall outside of campus. It's the largest residence hall, housing 1300…read moreundergraduates. A third of the freshmen class live here. Santa Catalina is divided into North Tower and South Tower, 11 floors and 10 floors respectively. The learning living communities here are First Generation, Outdoor Adventure, Scholars Floor, the Wellness Floor, and the Substance-Free Floor. It was originally called Francisco Torres, nicknamed FT. The named has been changed almost decade ago, but it is still called FT by everyone.   The rooms are doubles and suite style. Two rooms share one bathroom, verses a whole floor sharing one bathroom. The rooms are a little bigger than the other dorms. Like the rest of the dorms, there's study lounges, kitchenettes, laundry rooms, and a recreation room. Since it's off campus, FT has its own Dining Commons, Portola. Food isn't the best at Portola, it's the definition of bad dorm food. However, there's a pool and fitness center on site. If you live on a high floor, you can get a view of the mountains, oceans, or Isla Vista. The main concern living here is the distance to class. It's more than a mile away, around a ten minute bike ride. There are buses you can take, but it gets crowded on rainy days. If you're on a top floor, it could be more of a hassle to go in and out. The distance to Isla Vista is similar to the on campus Chi-5 dorms. FT is also considered a social dorm, comparable to Anacapa. Compared to the rest of the residence halls, you'll probably meet a lot more people because of the high density of freshmen here.
