<p>bump for roosevelt, i got accepted there too</p>
<p>got into muir</p>
<p>i got accepted to Roosevelt for molecular biology. it looks like it's very "liberal arts" in its curriculum. anyone got more info?</p>
<p>basically all the ucsd colleges are liberal but also science Im not sure if Roosevelt is the best for mol. biology I have no clue though.</p>
<p>I got into Roosevelt for econ...no idea what it's like. =</p>
<p>It doesn't matter which college you go to for your major. At least, that's what I've been told. I'm under Marshall for Biochem, though my first choice was Muir, but I don't caaaaare anymore.</p>
<p>I wouldn't worry about it. Minus the living conditions and social life issues, all of the colleges must be good. Besides, they're all under UCSD, what else should we complain about? :D</p>
<p>YESH!</p>
<p>How's Warren for biomed engr major?</p>
<p>Revelle is the most prestigous. Toughest GEs. Muir has the lowest acceptance rates because they have the easiest GEs and everyone puts them as their first choice.</p>
<p>Which one has the best dorms?</p>
<p>ERC rules and is awesome, best dorms (brand new)</p>
<p>although whatever screw ucsd they rejected me and that was my top choice haha :(</p>
<p>Any specific information about Marshall?</p>
<p>is warren ok for social sciences..such as the psychology major?</p>
<p>I am a current UCSD student. ERC has the BEST dorms and living conditions although they have some killer GEs (required foriegn language and this 2 year course sequence 'making of the modern world'). It is good if you are a history or anthro major because MMW satisfies all of your lower division major requirements, but it sucks for science majors but I heard that 80% more students go onto grad school from there. Everyone envies Muir students b/c of their easy GEs but their dorms arent so great. Revelle has the WORSE GEs. They are bad for science and non science majors and they have the oldest dorms. Sixth is OK, but their campus is kind of far from everything else. Warren and Marshall are both somewhere in the middle, OK GEs and OK dorms.</p>
<p>wait isn't Revelle the hardest but best for general ed (GE)?</p>
<p>i heard the best one is revelle</p>
<p>Revelle is good for pre-med students, humanities classes are essential for MCATs and medschool apps.</p>
<p>Got into Muir:)</p>
<p>Revelle College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>Revelle College stresses the broad character of general education. A structured liberal arts curriculum establishes a strong educational foundation for any major. All students complete a highly respected core humanities sequence and courses in the arts and social sciences. Students either meet proficiency in a foreign language or complete the fourth quarter of college level instruction. All students also complete sequences in mathematics and science, with separate courses available for science and non-science majors. Throughout the final two years, students concentrate on developing professional competence in an academic discipline.</p>
<p>This curriculum develops three main skills which are essential for a well-rounded education: learning to use the language of scholarship and science, learning how to think creatively, and learning how to learn.</p>
<p>Revelle College is distinguished by its emphasis on academics and student leadership. Its structured and well-rounded curriculum has been acclaimed nationally. Individual academic advising, honors programs, and programs that foster student-faculty interaction, are all hallmarks of UCSDs first college.
John Muir College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>John Muir College has established a flexible set of general-education and graduation requirements that ensures breadth and depth of learning and encourages the students of the college to take an active role in their own intellectual development. Students complete four year-long sequences drawn from the social sciences; the natural sciences or mathematics; and two sequences out of the following three areas: the humanities, fine arts, or foreign languages. Many choices are available for each of these year-long sequences. Muir has a one-course U.S. cultural diversity graduation requirement. Students also complete two analytical writing courses. Muirs requirements accommodate a wide range of interests and aptitudes, and Muirs academic advisers meet with students on a one-to-one basis. The relative openness and flexibility of its curriculum make Muir College particularly attractive to exceptionally able and well-prepared students with well-defined or developing academic interests.</p>
<p>John Muir College is distinguished by its atmosphere of friendliness and informality and a deep concern for the rights and welfare of others. Concern for ones fellow students goes well with Muirs educational philosophy, which stresses individual choice and development. The environment thus created fosters independence and responsibility, and well-rounded students.
Thurgood Marshall College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>The dedicated focus of Thurgood Marshall College is the active development of the student as scholar and citizen. The college, a small liberal arts and sciences community, is characterized by an open, friendly environment in which students pursue any major in the natural and physical sciences, social sciences, engineering, humanities, and fine arts offered at the university.</p>
<p>The colleges educational philosophy is guided by the belief that, regardless of a students major, a broad liberal arts education must include an awareness and understanding of the diversity of cultures that comprise contemporary American society, and the richness that socio-cultural diversity brings to the lives of American people.</p>
<p>Integral to the Marshall experience is the unique, three-quarter core sequence, Dimensions of CultureDiversity, Justice, and Imagination. This interdisciplinary, issues-oriented curricular experience explores both the diversity of American experiences across race, religion, class, and gender, and also the shared resources all Americans draw on when their different identities and interests conflict. Students also choose courses in mathematics or logic, natural/physical sciences, writing, humanities, and fine arts to fulfill general-education requirements.</p>
<p>In addition to the strong academic program, Thurgood Marshall College is proud of its emphasis on the student as citizen. Students are encouraged to integrate educational alternatives and public service opportunities, such as Partners at Learning (PAL), for which they earn academic credit, into their curriculum. Through PAL and other options, such as study abroad, internships, public service and leadership activities, students develop skills learned in the classroom and apply them to real-world experiences. Toward that end, the Student Leadership Program is especially designed to encourage active participation in the governance of the college and in community service.</p>
<p>Thurgood Marshall Colleges hallmark is community, where students are encouraged to be active participants in their university education and take advantage of the abundance of opportunities to learn and develop as exemplary scholars and citizensin a multicultural twenty-first century.
Earl Warren College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>Earl Warren College was founded in 1974 and named in honor of the former governor of California and Chief Justice of the United States. The Warren Court elaborated a doctrine of fairness in such areas as criminal justice, voting rights, legislative districts, employment, housing issues, transportation, and, most famously, education. Justice Warren had a principled commitment to education, opportunity, and hard work. Warren College offers students the benefit of a small campus environment with the resources of a renowned faculty and major research institution. Consistent with Earl Warrens principles, the college is committed to preparing students for life intellectually, socially, and professionally. The success of each and every Warren student is our goal. Warren students represent all disciplines offered at UCSD. Graduation requirements include a major and two secondary programs of study which encompass academic areas outside of a students major.
Eleanor Roosevelt College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>Eleanor Roosevelt College (ERC) emphasizes a comprehensive general education designed to prepare students to compete successfully in the global and multicultural economy of the twenty-first century. Successful professional people will need to understand their own cultural heritage as well as those of people from other societies with whom they will be interacting in their workplaces and communities.</p>
<p>The perspectives gained at ERC prepare students well for the future, whatever their goals and their major field of study, and whether they plan to go on to graduate school, professional school, or the worlds of science and technology, business, or the arts.</p>
<p>At the core of the curriculum are six courses comprising The Making of the Modern World (MMW). This interdisciplinary sequence was developed by faculty from anthropology, history, literature, political science, and sociology. It teaches students to think historically and analytically, as well as across disciplines, about both Western and non-Western societies, and the ways humans have organized their experience in different places and times.</p>
<p>ERC students receive exposure to natural science, quantitative methods, foreign language, and fine arts, and each selects a geographic region for in-depth study. Interested students are encouraged and assisted in finding ways to study, work, or travel in other countries to expand their horizons.</p>
<p>A friendly and supportive campus community, ERC is also distinguished by its emphasis on helping each individual reach his or her full potential intellectually, and in those skills, contributing to effective participation and leadership.</p>
<p>As Eleanor Roosevelt wrote, Whether or not they have made the world they live in, the young must learn to be at home in it, to be familiar with it. They must understand its history, its peoples, their customs and ideas and problems and aspirations. ERC students and graduates find themselves as much at home in the world as any of their generation, and more than most!
Sixth College Educational Philosophy</p>
<p>Sixth College challenges students to explore the historical and philosophical connections among culture, art, and technology, and how they energize each other. Students come to understand that innovation in every field draws upon a cultural ground. Sixth explores new technologies to create a learning community that reaches beyond the campus and encourages lifelong learning. Through interdisciplinary and cross-cultural study, Sixth provides an ideal intellectual and artistic framework for a contemporary liberal arts education. Sixth College general-education requirements include a unique three-quarter sequence which emphasizes study across academic disciplines in culture, art, and technology (CAT), including courses to develop computer and information literacy, writing, and communication skills. The flexible nature of our breadth requirements includes requirements across the social sciences, fine arts, humanities, natural sciences, math/ logic, and statistical methods. In addition, students will develop a project for the upper-division practicum to be completed in the junior or senior year.</p>
<p>Sixth will provide opportunities for student collaborations within the university and beyond, inspiring students to address, thoughtfully and actively, the serious needs of our communities.</p>
<p>Sixth College is a proud participant in the new Cal-(IT)2 initiative, led by UCSD. As such, the college will take part in, and benefit from, research that guides innovation in telecommunications and information technology, with the goal of revolutionizing how we live, work, and communicate.</p>
