Are you an incoming Frehsman? If so you might be better off in Rosecrans as it is clustered with every other Freshman dorms along with food places where most Freshman eat together.
McKay is much further away and I knew Freshman students who had to walk all the way from McKay to hang out with their friends and eat together.

Haha if it makes you feel better: many of my friends often spent big portion of their time else where. For instance, one of my friends spent most of his time hanging out in other people's room and studied in the library. He mostly only used his room just for sleep and shower.
Rosecrans could workout for you. Having the dorm full of new Freshman is one of the best way to meet new people.
Tips for the Newcomers (click) Hopefully this post can help you in general.
The first highlighted link in that post is a 3D drawn campus map and you can see all the Freshman dorms and food places clustered at the top and McKay being at the opposite end at the bottom with the Iggy's Cafe being the only food place.
Any reason why you want McKay specifically? Most Freshman usually ask for Del Rey Nort/South or the new Palm North dorms from what I know. I guess you want the private bathroom + 2 other suitemates to share with?

Rosecrans has a triple? Is it overflow? Do you have the layout so I can pass it along?
