UC Riverside or Cal State Long Beach?

Got into Cal Poly Pomona too but w/e

Paying for all of it, didn’t get much aid
In-state, will dorm

Bio major
4.3 GPA, lots of AP classes, some IB, 1300 SAT

For marine biology, I would give CSULB the edge, while Riverside would be a logical choice for pre-med biology. If you’re not really sure where you want to go with your major, then look on the department websites for each school to see if you can get a sense of which one appeals to you. Have you visited both yet (or will you be able to before the end of the month)?

@otterma hit that answer well. Note…UCR Bio-Med Thomas Haider program EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE…a bloodbath! Also have a regular medical school that isn’t a year accelerated like Haider. Know a number of Doctors from UCR with some completing Thomas Haider program in conjunction with UCLA.

@Otterma I have been to Riverside it’s not too pretty but never been to Long Beach, I’ll look into their websites thanks!
