I recently got into Conn College off the waitlist and am currently committed to UCSB. I’ve never visited Conn College and have lived in California my whole life so any input you have about the school and even how the East Coast culture is different from California (Bay Area) would be appreciated. My major is currently Undeclared but I’m most interested in Environmental Studies, Economics, and Political Science. I love the performing arts as I have been dancing my whole life and enjoy theater, so I would definitely want to get involved with that and possibly even minor in dance. Most people that I have talked to about my decision in my area have never heard of Conn College, so they aren’t the biggest help. Conn College gave me a good financial aid package, so it’s still a few thousand more than UCSB but it’s not a huge difference. I like the idea of small classes at Conn College, but I’m unsure if it would be too small as I love socializing with different groups of people. I also noticed that Conn College isn’t very ethnically diverse and wonder how that would be for me since I’m half Asian and grew up in a diverse area.
Any thoughts?
