I am looking into UCI and from watching videos on youtube, it seems as though their campus is amazing. Is it really how they advertise it or is it not really all they crack it up to be?
UCI is certainly a nice campus (I taught in the UCI Extension program for ~ 10 years).
I’d say “amazing” is in the eye of the beholder. My biggest complaint is the surrounding area is perhaps too nice, so for me it lacks some “college town charm.” But that is solely based on my frame of reference.
