What is better? My son got into UC Riverside for creative writing. He also got into SJSU and CSUF for Communications. They all sound like good choices but am I right in thinking that it is better to go for a major he really wants rather than settle for Creative Writing (even though he does enjoy it) just to go to a UC. He liked the campus tours equally.
My tips for finding the “fit”. Academics, Social Scene, Finances and Happiness. A Happy student= Successful Student
I’d drill into his feelings about the campuses - it is hard to believe they are all equal. Maybe another tour and interacting with some students and faculty will help tip the scales.
