“Cal Poly SLO isn’t the only college town with a CC nearby. You could do the CC -> UC/CSU path by attending SBCC in the Santa Barbara area, attend a CC in the San Diego area, etc. So if you want some of the college experience while attending a CC and your concern is housing you have more choices than just Cuesta.”
That’s true but I would want to got to the feeder school for Cal Poly because then I have a good chance of getting in there and getting in at a UC through the TAG program.
“Not sure where you get these numbers from unless you’re not a CA resident. Davis lists CA resident cost as $35K, SLO says $26K”
I guess I didn’t really think about SLO’s price but the 30K-40K price range is true for Davis and it’ll be more expensive 2 years from now as they are raising prices year by year for some reason.
Thanks everyone for the comments. I am leaning towards CU Boulder at this point.
