<p>Don't worry! Many of us have gotten rejected from Davis but accepted to SB, so good luck! Get hyped up for your app, I was so nervous since this was my last chance to get in to a UC, but I finally got in, phew. </p>
<p>Anyone else?</p>
<p>I didn't get into SB. I was rejected to all the colleges I applied for except LA and Irvine which I am still waiting for.</p>
<p>i cant decide between ucsb and ucsc i got into other uc’s as well but i dont care for them asmuch… i am an econ major ucsc economics department is known worldwide i have not heard anything about santa barbara’s department of economics…has anyone?
i also want to know how the weather is like at santa cruz and santa barbara…i like cloudy/rainy weather…i dont like sun that much…so whichever school has more cloudy days i would consider that as well…
also i get freaked out if theres too much dirt around…i have heard that ucsc is not that clean…is that true?..i also want to know which uc has better residence halls and food.</p>
<p>i got into UCD and UCSB, and i chose UCSB! SB just sounds wayyy better.</p>

I don’t know about that… we’re the one with the Nobel prize winner in economics, Finn Kydland. He’s usually mentioned in textbooks that discuss real business cycle theory.</p>
<p>As a current Business Economics major here, I honestly don’t know how your education in economics would differ all that much between UCSB and UCSC, anyway. Going off perceived reputations - and those are usually based off the graduate sections of economics departments - doesn’t necessarily translate into undergraduate teaching quality. For example, I don’t think Dr. Kydland currently teaches undergrad courses, and if he did, it wouldn’t say anything about the other professors in the department.</p>
<p>flush, would you say that econ classes are generally harder or easier than comp sci classes? I know this is unrelated to OP’s post, but i’m jw.</p>
<p>I chose UCSB over Davis and Irvine as well. I think UCSB has so much more to offer plus you can’t beat the beachfront location!</p>
<p>Sorry Mancini, but I’ve never taken comp sci here… usually my non-econ classes are in the humanities.</p>
