<p>I am a transfer student who has been admitted to UCSD and UCD. My dilemma is which one to attend to with the least amount of regret.</p>
<p>I am a Psychology major, and I would prefer a B.A.</p>
<p>B.A</a>. Degree</p>
<p>Even though I have completed the 60 semester units for transfer I have not fulfilled all the Lower-Division Requirements for the B.A. I still need 1 more Natural Science course, 1 Calculus course, 1 more quantitative reasoning, and 1 computer science course. It seems like a lot and I don't know if taking these classes may interfere with focusing on my upper-division courses. Also if you check the link for the B.A 4 year plan it looks as if I might have to stay an extra year.</p>
<p>UC Davis does not have these upper division requirements.</p>
<p>However I have already taken some courses I would rather not have taken like Pre-calc to help me get into UCSD so it feels like a waste if I go to Davis? Also the calculus requirement is quite intimidating to me because I struggled to get a B in my pre-calc in community college.</p>
<p>Then there's the issue of Gen eds.</p>
<p>UC Davis GE requirements
UC</a> Davis General Catalog | General Education Requirement</p>
<p>UC San Diego GE requirements for Sixth College(I got admitted to that)
GE</a> & Graduation Requirements</p>
<p>It seems UC Davis has more gen ed requirements than UCSD. So either way would I get stuck with all these additional requirements? According to that page I might have to take another math class anyway?</p>
<p>Just to let you know, I already have 2 transferable math courses, Statistics and Pre-calc. I also have already done 8 semester units of art, 12 units of humanities(Philosophy and Ethics, Cross-cultural art, English writing and composition, and English literature and compositor), I have probably 13 units of science(Biology survey, Anatomy, and Into to Chemistry), and have taken Into to Psychology, intro to Sociology, into to Cultural Anthropology, Abnormal Psychology, Logic, Non-Western Cultures Anthropology, and maybe a few more classes that don't come to mind right now. I have completed my IGETC too. I have a 3.75 GPA.</p>
<p>I also got admitted to UC Berkeley. Sadly, because I had to withdraw from my Intro to Logic and Programming class which I took for UCSD and because I was failing it. UCSD and UCD are forgiving about it. UC Berkeley isn't and wants a written explanation for it that will be evaluated. I'm not sure if I should bother. I'm guessing they want a sad story about how I broke my leg and therefore couldn't attend class. Instead the truth is I couldn't grasp what the professor wanted exactly even though I tried hard doing the homework that wasn't graded anyway and got an F for a working program, and when I asked him about how to do things design-wise he told me to figure it out by myself. Then later after the matter told me I should ask him, when I did.</p>
<p>I really wanted to go to UCSD but maybe I didn't think hard enough about it and scoffed off Davis too early until now. Ugh.</p>
<p>Something also bugging me is the cost of rent. Berkeley is really expensive. Davis not so much. San Diego kinda.</p>
<p>I would also like to know who I can talk to about these things. The phone numbers and emails seems for general advice, but I would like to know someone more specific. I would also like to talk to Psychology students in both campuses before making my final decision.</p>
