Is it better to go to UC Irvine for Bio, or to Santa Clara University as Business?

I'd go UCI for Bio. The UC's have a stronger reputation and I wouldn't consider SCU undergrad business a great program. If you can hack it at UCI Bio (keep in mind that at UCI, 20% go in as Bio, about half get out as bio) - then it'll prepare you well for MCATS or pharm school. \n\nBio alone can't do much. SCU Business - you'll probably be able to get some accounting job at a big 4 after graduation.

The University of California is the "better" system, at least by certain measures--faculty education, faculty research involvement, admissions standards.  There is certainly no school in the CSU system which can compare to Berkeley or UCLA.\n\nBut, these are only general points.  The best fit between student and school is something that has to be determined on an individual basis.

Oregon State University is a land grant college. It excells in agricultural studies, although even being a graduate, I am sure there are better. But, OSU is not a bad place to start. It is ahead of the curve in Bio engineering.

As a professor, I would counsel someone to only accept the school that you will actually attend.  If there are some extenuating circumstances, such as finances, the school is geographically distant from your home and you are not sure that you would like to be that far from your familiar surroundings, etc., I highly suggest that you visit all the campuses before you make your decision.  \n\nIf you accept at ALL of the Cal State Schools, they will all find out.  I do not know if there are any official channels of communication between Cal State and UC, but the administrators of these schools often speak to each other.  There was a time when you could only apply to ONE UC campus for exactly this reason.\n\nFurther, if there was one campus that you absolutely wanted to go to, and got in, are you now changing your mind?  If so, you should try to determine why that change is taking place, and choose your school accordingly.

The best marketing programs are at the best business schools.  On an undergraduate level, the best B-Schools are Wharton, MIT and UC-Berkeley.  Only one of them is in California.\n\nUCLA, USC and UC-Davis all have ranked business schools.  Stanford is the best business school in California -- but it does not grant undergraduate degrees.

Yes, in general I would say that a more prestigious school will have higher standards for what A level work is and what B level work is etc.  A good student will get an A easier at a less prestigious school than if they were at harvard for example.  \n \nOf course, this also depends on teachers. i have had professors who got their phds from MIT and Berkeley etc and yet are very easy graders and others who are from normal schools who are very tough graders. it all depends on the person.  \n\nif you want to get an idea of what a specific school is like do the following. Go to "ratemyprofessor.com".  then open up a separate webpage and look up UC santa barbara's business department. go to faculty and then go one by one and look up the faculty on "ratemyprofessor" and see what other students have said about the professors. they normally give information about how hard the teacher was on grading.

I graduated from Cal Poly San Luis.  Cal Poly gives you more 'hands on' engineering than some other schools that take a more 'theoretical' approach.  Depends on what you want to do (hands-on vs. theoretical).  I recommend it if you are good or like working directly on projects.  If you prefer doing more calculations, there are also some good schools back East to look at.  You also would do well to go to Pomona followed by graduate school somewhere else.

If you are referring to Cal State University, in my opinion the best one is San Luis Obispo. Its even harder to get into than some UC's.

As a CA native, born and raised......all are good schools that you mentioned. USC is great, but the location it is in can be described as " Ghetto " and it's in a really bad part of the Los Angeles Community. Although that has nothing to do with the school itself. \n\nBerkley is great and would be a good choice! UCSB is good, I had some friends that went there but it isnt better than Berkley or USC.

If anatomy and/or physiology is an available major, take that. Otherwise go with a biology major, and maybe minor in business.

I actually considered going to Pitt. I live out of state so it was pricey. I like the school, LOVE the area, there is a lot to do. I still go to Oakland on occasion.

The London Business school and Harvard Business school if you have good grades and are well rounded.oh and having money is a pus too since they're expensive. If you can get into these schools, the world is at your feet

for architecture, it won't actually affect you in the job world. all it says is that one is more techniccally based and one is more art based. UC berkeley is probably a bachelor of arts because it's more theory and book stuff. Cal Poly SLO, for instance (sorry if you aren't applying in California, but that's the area I know), would be more of a Bachelor of Science because it's more math and science. A BS is probably more likely to get you a job right out of school because you'll have more technical training. I, then, would go for the BS.
