Choosing between UCSB, UCSD, or Michigan State University as a comm major

Hi everyone I’m a high school senior and got accepted into UCSB and UCSD for Comm major, and Michigan State University for Media and information. It’s really hard for me to decide which school to go to as each of them has its own amazing feature. In terms of courses, I’ve learned that UC schools generally emphasize more on theory and analysis whereas MSU provides classes with more practical projects. As a hands-on person, I’m leaning toward MSU in this aspect. However, UCSB’s Lifestyle really attracts me and that it also has a high reputation in comm major as well as UCSD. Also, studying at UCSD may indicate more internships as it is located in a big city. I’m not sure about connections with Alum of all the three schools, does anyone know? Also, I’d love to hear any insights about the comm major of all three schools! Furthermore, I’m interested in learning about Honors college or honors program. Thanks a ton!!

Is finances a determining factor at all?

not really
