<p>If so, please post here and I will talk you out of it. Don’t do it until you’ve had a chance to discuss it here. </p>

<p>I'd like to go to UCR, why do you think I shouldn't?</p>
<p>For starters, have you been accepted to other UC schools?</p>
<p>Yes, I've been accepted to UCLA and UCSF, but the Riverside area seems a lot more desirable.</p>
<p>i am considering it like 10%
i got a scholarship tutition only
i got into all the ucs except ucb
major:bioE or EE at the UCs and chemE at ucla</p>
<p>Lsmith, can you explain how you were accepted to UCSF?</p>

<p>Congratulations on your acceptances. I'm glad to hear you're not considering UCR highly.</p>
<p>UCRGrad</p>
<p>Sorry, misprint, UCSD.</p>
<p>What is so "desirable" about the Riverside area?</p>
<p>UCRGrad</p>
<p>ucr is hella underrated...thier science programs are getting better and better
i dont like it when people regard ucr as a crappy school or a second tier school
ucr is only goin to go up</p>
<p>"ucr is hella underrated...thier science programs are getting better and better"</p>
<p>Too bad their rankings are getting lower and lower</p>
<p>"i dont like it when people regard ucr as a crappy school or a second tier school ucr is only goin to go up"</p>
<p>I disagree with that statement, because UCR is definitely a THIRD tier school (in CA).</p>
<p>UCRGrad</p>
<p>lol^ i've never met a UCR grad who didn't regret attending... that's a sign</p>
<p>Geez, what makes you an expert? What are you some kind of doctor or something?</p>
<p>I am here to make sure people make informed choices. That's all.</p>
<p>I didn't apply to riverside..for me it's a secondrate Davis.</p>
<p>The town of riverside from what i've seen and heard is really unsafe, I wouldn't want to have an apartment there for 3 years, the gangs there are really brutual, if I wanted that I'd live in Watts..</p>
<p>All I'm saying is that UCR would be the best option for me since I can still live at home and walk to school every day from my trailer. On a smogless day the campus is quite beautiful. It's either there or Lake Superior State University. Which do you think is better? I really don't want to go to UCLA or UCSD.</p>
<p>Do you think living at home would help you develop strong independence and a solid social network? Or are you planning on living with your parents until you're 30?</p>
<p>UCRGrad</p>
<p>I'm not living with my parents, I own the trailer.</p>
<p>Let me get this straight. You're in HS, you own the trailer you live in, and you don't live with your parents. ...and you want to go to UCR??</p>
<p>UCRGrad</p>
<p>Yeah, I own it, my parents ran away and left it to me, and I live here alone. I maintain it by working part-time at Target. Now, what is so wrong with UCR??? I'm thinking of doing pre-med, do you know anything of that program?</p>
