Hi! I have to SIR today, so I need some help. I am a communications major (pre comm for ucsb). I know ucsb’s comm studied is one of their top majors, so what worries me is the ease of getting classes and graduating in four years. Also, you must keep a minimum 3.0 gpa to enter the comm major at UCSB. I did generally decent in high school (3.88 UW and 4.16 w, 2060 SAT) but I was wondering if UCSB might be too challenging academically. I don’t want to fail out of the major.
For SLO, its liberal arts studies and communications are generally less well known, but the classes seem easier and more job oriented. My problem is that at cal poly it is too hard to get needed classes and their four year grad rate is very low.
At this rate, SLO and UCSB are priced the same. Which one do you think is best?
