I got rej from ucsb and ucsd 😦 but admitted by uci. uci actually is my favorite school among these at first place, but after I saw some comments that compared these three schools on the internet… I was influenced by those comments, so I wanted to ask you guys’s choices.

(Talk about everything from the geographical location, academic pressure, learning experience, professionalism, teaching resources, etc.)

if I had the choice between all 3 for cs, I would pick ucsd

#

it has the best known stem programs out of the 3 and research, and a more stem focused student body. also near a lot of good attractions, in an area with low crime, and it is very near the ocean

#

I think uci is pretty decent too if you're a Chinese person, as it is known as "University of Chinese Immigrants"

it appears to be very dominant in chinese and latino people

#

ucla is white dominant, followed by the engineering/premed chinese/korean folks

bc uci said they want to represent the ethnic makeup of the state

#

but I'm not completely sure how it will look- each uc sets their diversity targets separately

#

"international" is not classified, but is primarily chinese at uci

#

so 52% primarily chinese and some indian, then 26% latino/white hispanic

yeah i think that’s why i didn’t choose UCI in HS

#

not a super diverse school
