The Best College for a History Major

[zackaw]

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am a City College of San Francisco student applying to SD for Spring, 2010, as a Jr year History major. I realize that UCSD is not known for its History program, so I did some prelim. research to figure out which of the 6 colleges would best suit my academic interests. However, I couldn't tell from the descriptions whether "Marshall, Warren, Muir, or 6th" would be best for me. </p>

<p>Until recently I wanted to be a Marine Corps officer, and now I want to be a teacher, so I'm a very service-oriented learner. In fact, my primary motivation for going to college is to earn the opportunities and the credibility to serve meaningfully.</p>

<p>That being said, do the colleges really matter for a Jr year transfer? If so, which one is best for me?</p>

<p>Respectfully,</p>

<p>Zack A-W</p>

<p>I would recommend Muir or Warren for a transfer. The less GEs you have to complete, the better. Muir would be great for history as well.</p>

<p>Marshall would also be good, if you complete igetc you are finished for ge requirements and Marshall is very public service oriented.</p>
