Hello, I am a senior in high school that have recently got accepted to both UC and CSU schools. Right now I am currently debating whether I want to go to a UC or CSU. I have successfully narrowed down my choices to only either SDSU or UCSB and just for a little information, I applied to UCSB as a Hydrological Science major and I applied to SDSU as Civil Engineering major (I would most likely switch it to environmental science because that is what I passionate about.) So I wanted to know your guys’ opinions on which school is better? Money is somewhat of a concern to me as well since I do not want to have a lot of debt when I graduate and some of the things I look for in the college is their study abroad program, opportunity to double major or minor, opportunities provided by the school - I would like to start a business one day so entrepreneurship related programs would be something I consider - and lastly I am planning to go to a grad school to pursue a master in envrionmental science. What are the pros and cons of these two schools? and I will keep an open mind upon deciding between the two schools. By the way I visited both campuses, and both are truly amazing schools and I fell in love with both campuses.
They are both excellent and you love both campuses… assuming you are a full pay student, i’d head to SDSU and save the extra tuition.
