Add another, UCSB vs Cal Poly vs UCD

<p>Alright everyone, we're all running out of time. I didn't get into my dream school of Stanford, even with a 36 ACT and some EC's. I applied in EE to Berkeley so that was unfortunately a no-go too.</p>

<p>Now I'm trying to decide. Here's the info:</p>

<p>I received Regent's to both UC's. This means they all cost within $1000 of each other. I applied in Electrical Engineering to each one, but I'm interested in General Engineering as well. On one end, I'm interested in the power systems course that UCSB and Cal Poly offer, and Cal Poly has a Engineering Management Master's degree. </p>

<p>On the other hand, Energy Policy at Davis also interests me.</p>

<p>I am a local of San Luis, so it is very close to home. Santa Barbara is the prettiest, they're very relaxed about their honor's program, but it's harder to move around(although priority registration negates this). Davis is the easiest to move around seemingly, but its honors program is stricter. I like the idea of living with all the honors students at Davis, however.</p>

<p>Cal Poly supposedly has the best overall Engineering program.</p>

<p>I didn't get to view the labs or the music room at Davis because they were closed.</p>

<p>Anyone have any advice? I would appreciate it very much.</p>

<p>If you are considering changing major, find out from each school how difficult it is to change major before deciding.</p>

<p>Anyone have any other opinions?</p>
