Hello, I am planning to apply to 4 years Universities from California Community College and I don’t know whether I should apply my TAG to UCI or UCSB. Which school is well known in Computer Science? Thank you!!
This is a tough call. Both have excellent programs. CollegeFactual has UCSB’s CS program ranked #8 in the country, which I would take with a grain of salt since it ranks the school above Berkeley. Most other rankings places the school in the Top 40 in the country. Same goes for UCI. UCI has its own School of Computer Sciences and will have a lot more flexibility with programs within CS.
UCSB does not offer TAG to any majors in the College of Engineering, so I would consider UCI, UCD or UCSC as your options.
