Math of Computation at UCLA vs Computer Science at UCI

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I am currently a math of computation major at ucla and was contemplating whether to switch to the computer science department at UCI. I would like to undergo strictly computer science, but I'm just not sure if transferring is worth it. I have a 3.3 GPA, so I am unable to even apply for the CS major at UCLA. </p>

<p>Reasons why i'm staying:
convenience - I live 30 minutes away from here
already completed 2 years here
im still able to study computer science here, just not as strict.</p>

<p>Reasons to transfer:
I don't like math as much anymore.
I want to study strictly CS.</p>

<p>I would like some suggestions and pros/cons of what you think i should do. Thanks!</p>

<p>Are you still taking lower div classes? Maybe you can take more easy GE’s to pad your gpa to 3.5 to transfer at UCLA</p>

<p>Apply to UCI for a CS major. It’ll probably open more doors than a 3.3 in a major you don’t like very much, even if your degree is from UCLA.</p>
