UC riverside vs UC santa barbara vs cal state fullerton

<p>I got accepted into UC riverside business administration major, UC santa barbara pre-econ and accounting major, and cal state fullerton pre-business major. I am having trouble to make my final decision. I know UC santa barbara is the highest ranked school of all three. They also have the best campus of all three. I am not sure how good is their pre-econ and acounting program even though i know it is pretty competitve there. The biggest issue i have is i am really interesting in finance. But UCSB does not offer business administration major. At the same time, i heard many people say that a lot of finance job can be done by earning econ or accounting degree. So it's very hard for me to make decision on UCSB.</p>

<p>For cal state fullerton and UCR, they both offer business administration degree. I heard that both of them have good business program. But most of people i know suggest me to choose CSUF over UCR if i don't choose UCSB. </p>

<p>I really want to hear you guys' opinions. </p>

<p>Hey man I’m in the same exact position as you in all three schools. It’s really wierd how we’re in the exact same position lol but I’m choosing fullerton bc I live so close to it, got no financial aid for the UCs and got into the business honors program at csuf. And I have been doing interviews for the program and it’s really truly amazing, I’ve talked to all the business professionals, CEOs I know and all say that they dot hire for business anywhere else than fullerton, before other cal states and even UCs because its business program is top notch. I am kind of salty about not getting the going away experience or the fun at SB but from everyone I’ve talked to the best opportunities out of all those schools from a business major is cal state fullerton, especially and specifically business honors. Companies hire them before they graduate and then some will even pay up to 80% of you’re MBA from what I’ve seen. But it depends, because the choice would be different for me if I didn’t live so close to it so I don’t have to pay as much and didnt get in to the business honors program. But good look on ur choice!</p>

<p>@matador3 I live not far from both riverside and fullerton. So that’s really not an issue. Unfortunately, i am only a pre-business major at csuf. on the other hand, riverside offers me the business administration major. So this is why i am still not sure. For financial aid, so far, only sb offers me financial aid. That’s also the reason i am still thinking. Luckily, i still have little time to do little bit more research. Thanks for the reply. I am really appreciated. </p>
