Oxy vs Mac

I’m leaning slightly more towards Oxy but I also really like Mac. The only reason why I prefer oxy is for the weather. The main factors I’m considering are the urban environment, kindness/passion within the student body, opportunities for internships, and academic rigor. I want to major in something related to social justice. It seems like Oxy was a really great major for that.

Are you asking which to apply to or are you a senior (coming off a waitlist) trying to determine which to attend?

If it’s the first - apply to both and see where you get in, and which is affordable.
If it’s the second - consider $$, academics, potential majors and ease of transportation, among other factors.

Whoops, forgot to add that Oxy, while LA accessible, is actually in a very nice suburb of LA.
It’s in Eagle Rock, closer to Glendale and Pasadena than downtown LA or the West Side of LA, which is where UCLA is located. Not easy to get around if you don’t have a car.
