No, but if you are you will love the place :-) ...I studied at Stanford and actually found myself sometimes really envying UC Santa Cruz students for just how beautiful their campus is ...you'll get the forest and the sea side by side right in front of you :-)

It really depends on your school and how the programs are adopted.\n\nYou need to think about:\n1. how long each program has been around for\n2. Who is teaching it and how long they have been teaching it for. Some teachers are on or were on the AP grading panel, check up on that.\n3. What you'll need in college (what your major will be)\n\nI suggest not taking more than 3, when it comes test time, you'll go nuts with too many classes and extra stuff in life to worry about.\n\nAre you working? that makes a big difference too.\n\nHonors classes are less demanding and they usually don't come with a college credit or a huge test.\n\nI would have to say that the college credit from the AP tests do help with getting college credit taken care of, but you need to check to see if the colleges that you want to apply to will accept the AP tests as college credit, if you are only worried about getting in, then of course it will look good. I know Harvard didn't accept a lot of passing AP test scores for college credit, but it always looks good to show potential. \n\nI go to the University of California, Irvine, and I know a good essay is key at UCI.

you could go to their website. you should be able to find useful information and you could e-mail the admissions office requesting for more information about UC.

UC-Irvine?  Your grades are probably fine.  Do well on the SAT or ACT, write a good application and get good recommendations and you'll get in.\n\nTry for UCLA, though: way cooler school!

Try http://www.assist.org Last I knew, the site could give you information about transferring to UC or CSU by major, and tell you which schools have transfer agreements, among other things. It's very useful!

I have a fellow nursing student that just transfered from a small campus. She loved it because of the atmosphere. You feel like you're a part of the campus and culture because you get to know a greater percentage of the students. She got to know nearly all the FT professors at some point, constantly ran into students she knew, and felt at home there. The problem with the school we are at now...you can literally walk by thousands of people and not bump into a familiar place. It feels like a zoo and you don't fee like you are part of a campus community.

I am also doing research because i would like to go. All of my friends that have gone have said that it is an AMAZING experience and EXTREMELY worth it. I highly suggest going. I believe they offer a few scholarships...you may want to look into it.

It's an Ivy League school. It's very highly selective, and the people that go there are all very intelligent. They have some wonderful, world-renowned professors, too. \nPlus, it's expensive.

I also live in CA.  Santa Barbara is a beautiful college. I'm thinking of transfering there myself. No one can really answer this question for you, but here are some things to consider:\nDo you want to stay close to home?\nDo you like the busy life of New York?\nAre you a big partier? (I'm not saying there's no parties in New York, but let's face it, UCSB is the place to be for a good party)\nWhat is your field of interest?\n***Make sure you compare both colleges to see which one's right for you.

I didn't attend there (although I have visited the campus), but I do have strong opinions about size of schools.  Too big is difficult for some people.  I wouldn't have survived it as an undergrad.  I went to an enormous school for grad school, and it was ok then, but for undergrad, I really think the smaller schools are much better.  you get more opportunity to interact with the instructors, and get to know other students.

Berkeley because the college scene there is unlike any other...where else are you going to have a naked guy?  Everyone there is very chill and open to new things, unlike UCLA which is a bit more uptight and USC which is just a bunch of rich kids.  Also you'll be close to San Fransisco which is one the greatest cities in CA.  Good luck where ever you choose!

Hi, I've never been to UT in Austin, but I hear it's a good school.  Visit collegeboard.com, studentsreview.com, and princetonreview.com to learn more about it.  Also, be SURE to visit the campus before going there.  You definitely want to take a tour of the campus and get a feel for the environment.  I know for me, I had many colleges I wanted to go to, but I narrowed them down after visiting them and asking lots of questions.  \n\nIf you have a myspace, go to: \nhttp://groups.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=groups.groupProfile&groupID=100001791&Mytoken=14D07D44-711C-A48D-0B3E12971443C49D6260347\n\nOr go to myspace.com, click on "groups" and type in "University of Texas at Austin" and click on the first link.  \n\nAnd post a question or you can send a message to someone who attends that school.  Good luck!

I'm an ME major at ucsd and it's a pretty decent school. You have to understand though, that UCSD is also a large state school. I hear SLO is pretty good and to be honest, the education is probably the same as UCSD (could  be better even). It also costs a lot less money.  Rent is higher here too. However, the degree might look better from UCSD. UCSD also has a lot more people\n\nFrom reading your question, it seems you are a little unhappy. College is what you make of it. Though I will tell you UCSD has its share of introverted people too.\n\nMy personal opinion is yes, give UCSD a shot. Why? well because you clearly don't like SLO. You also get to have a new experience. \n\nJust remember that since you are transferring you will not get the "freshman experience" of living on campus at UCSD. You will have to make new friends. \n\nFeel free to e-mail me for more detailed info
