You didn't miss anything. When I was an undergrad at Caltech in the late 90's I had several friends attempt suicide. My best friend and I both transferred out. The job prospects out of Caltech are underwhelming for the hell they put you through.
I didn't about caltech before I watched the big bang theory, in asia caltech isn't that famous like harvard or MIT, but after searching and reading many forums, now I know that caltech is an amazing university, specially in science, math and engineering program.
dear, dear.. Nobody watches Cal-tech in TH-cam if he or she doesn't study (physics particularly). Anyways, what do you think, what sort of people watch Cal-tech lectures on TH-cam??
Haha I had such a wrong impression about the Caltech student. I pictured an orderly and all-white house with minimalist design and everything in place. Everyone sitting in the table with posture and formal clothing. It's funny to see how unlike that it actually is.
I believe they prioritize more on education than the “lifestyle appearance”! Tbh I feel like it’s really homey, and it makes sense that smart people don’t have time to worry about the cuteness of their rooms 😂
Love that Charlotte sectional on Karsyn's wall. Awesome to earn a PPL while a Tech undergrad. Nice video. The place has evolved somewhat since I got out in '76 (Blacker). Finally found time for pilot license in '82. Still flying!
My dream college!! Praying everyday to Almighty for giving me the opportunity to study here in future.. I wanna be there so badly...but it's so hard... :\
Caltech moving to Malibu. When I was there in the early 70's I heard rumor (later confirmed) that a developer offered the land where Pepperdine U is, to Caltech & Hughes Research Center. The idea was to create a "Silicone Beach" or "Punched Cards beach then" in Malibu. The faculty voted down. Too bad... the view from Pepperdine is simply breath taking.
I started studying IB in order to improve my English and be more comfortable talking just to study here 😂 but any of you know how to enter Caltech after graduating from IB
I used to work here. There’s a lot of things that go on here the really would concern parents. The student themselves told me they wouldn’t recommend the housing. Ask about the bartenders at the house parties
There's a lot of friction between people who work there and the students. In general, the people who work there are "concerned" about student life, and the students say that without the houses they wouldn't have the support they need to survive the meat-grinder that is Caltech.
Hi my name is sara. A Muslim who studies in Kenya, Nairobi. I'm in high school now,my dream school is Caltech . I don't know if Muslims students study there. I pray everyday and every night and ask Allah to help me study hard so that I can go to that school. I have only one question, are there Muslims in this university??????????????
Going by the fact that this is a university that's heavy on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math I'm going to presume that it's mostly non-religious since the more educated you are in these fields the more likely you are to not believe in any religion or deity. But you will find religious people anywhere you go so there are definitely exceptions.
@tonymontana7263 Let me put it this way. I was at Caltech in the early 80s and was active in Caltech Christian Fellowship. JUST IN PAGE HOUSE there were about 6 people active in that group and 3 or 4 other people that went to church regularly but weren't active in that fellowship - that I know of. Just because the top establishment biologists are atheists don't assume the great majority scientists are.
@@r_1901 well yeah but it's still a great school. Idk if that's a "be careful what you wish for" sort of situation. Still, I agree. It is one of the hardest schools in the nation
There WAS one alley - Dabney upper 7, if I remember right, that was all graffitied like in "Real Genius". Almost everything got "renovated" several years back, and I doubt graffiti would be allowed in the hallways. Dabney had a reputation as the house for druggies in the past, and their members had about the lowest graduation rates. I have NO idea what it's like these days, but supposedly Caltech is managing to graduate just about everybody these days, so I imagine things have changed.
I hope to go to this school some day but i cant stay at the houses because i plan on bringing my cat . so i have to get an apartment of campus . These look like so much fun !
They really should have shown the newer houses as well. Avery house and Bechtel are newer and, from what I have seen, are much "cleaner". Avery is part of the "house" system, Bechtel is not.
I was rejected by caltech 2 days ago. This video is painful to watch for me.
Yang Hu Then stop watching it. Well, now you'll come back to this painful video because of my comment.
There is always community college.
Tough luck....

Hey! I'm guessing you've graduated high school now,which uni are you in?
@@baako0906 that was 5 years ago, I graduated college already 😂
@@irun_mon lol nice, which uni did you go to?
@@baako0906 just a local university here in my country, nothing fancy like that lol
I'm impressed. I wish that anyone can get this kind of hospitality while going to school.
I surprisingly got in here recently! I'm excited for the housing system if I decide to go here, seems great!
What were your grades?
Housing system made me choose Caltech too!
Remember thus
how's the area?
Seems pretty cool. Keeps those introverts from getting lost at school. The beds seem a little too close for my liking but to each is own.
how about this?
Anyone who has watched every Cal-tech videos on you-tube and liked every single one of them should get an admission !!
Count me in!!
Willson Basyal yes please!
No, then that could mean you don't study, all you do is watch youtube
dear, dear..

Doesn't look very professional or elite going by this video.
So they have a mobile piece of artillery on campus
Yup. The fleming cannon. It's been there at least 50 years now.
Best part is that it is fully functional
Caltech may be a great school, but I have seen prisons more aesthetically pleasing.

This is one of my dream schools. The other one is Harvard. I really want to get into this school.
***** XD I'm asian so I'm screwed lol
***** Dw man, I lowered me hopes to MIT lol.
Did u get in?
@Santiago Franco I'm mexican! thanks for the advice. Anyway I really prefer Caltech.
Assuming you've graduated high school now,which uni did you get into
I recently got in, and I am very excited for Rotation!
How'd it go?
My dream college!! Praying everyday to Almighty for giving me the opportunity to study here in future.. I wanna be there so badly...but it's so hard... :\
So, did you apply?
You can do it just work hard and patient
@Farishta Kabir: you are not alone. I pray to God everyday for the blessing to have my son's dream come true.

Thanks, youtube, for recommending promotional Caltech videos right after I got rejected!
What I love from Caltech is that it is full of nerds like me!
I JUST GOT ACCEPTED!!!!!
Broooooo congrats 🎉🎉🎉 make good use of the chance u have been given
Congrats! Sorry about the sucky timing with Covid. How's it going?
Such a great University
Can't get in there now. Maybe just visit.
How are the frat parties like at Caltech?
Probably the best place science could find on Earth!
It's my dream and life goal to study here!
...this is the 2nd video I've watched with you two narrators ~ but, do 'all' students at CalTech walk "sdrawkcab"-?
I hope I get in someday.
I wish that to.
I really want to.
CaRlos Alighieri yea man the dream
I really want to get in here! Im 14 right now...ahhh i really hope i can get in here.
Hey, we might both be there at the same time if we both get accepted! ;D
Yeahh. It's unlikely that us 3 will get in together because they have an 8.8% acceptance rate
Elina Rancane good luck and make your best effort to enter.
Same
My college counselor said they’re very selective hopefully i get in😩... when i become a senior
my dream school :)
my college hostel are pretty much same as yours but here is no house party thing .
I used to work here. There’s a lot of things that go on here the really would concern parents. The student themselves told me they wouldn’t recommend the housing. Ask about the bartenders at the house parties

Angelica Leon You could just move though.

Looks cozy
No wonder why Feynman like to stayed in Caltech
it is possible to get a scholarship from mexico to this school ? i need help :(
Yes you can if you are an outstanding student! Last year CalTech offered as an average 40000$ as financial aid for international students
Daniel SD Alfher Since California requires a race quota they will pay you to come to their school good luck

Tsss, que Felices son y no lo saben, acá en México algunos universitarios ni pa comer
Those houses sure look a lot like dorms
Nice video, this is truly my dream school. The background music was really cringy though.
Looks amazing.
Isn't it easier just to watch the movie "real genius" to find out the dramatised student house?

Dabney eats it!
I think I’m am going here
is it me , or those apartments are super small ? lol
they fit a bed , a small desk (coffee table size) and a cabinet?
no.. thanks.
They are dorms.
Urgh, forced communities. MIT has got it right w/ housing.
Naaaaah
Hi will Dr. Sheldon cooper give me classes?
the second house was disgusting, looked like a drug den
Naah, it looks wayyy better than the 1st
Ricketts Hovse was a drug den back in the day...
@@josephlucas7083 That and Dabney. And in the 70s (before my day) supposedly Caltech was the west coast leader in LSD production.
Cool ❤
Do you think play Minecraft

It's hilarious to watch the Easter eggs.
state of the place. college in ireland is much better.

Please accept me 😭
You'll go where you're destined to be
She looks like Ramona Nowitzki 😂
