I recently visited both schools and I’m having a really hard time choosing between the schools. For UCSD, I got into muir college and I liked the campus better and I feel as if there is more to do than at UCI. At UCI though, I was accepted into the honors program which gives me benefits such as priority registration. What I also have to factor in is my majors, which are political science for UCSD and cognitive science for UCI. My question is if the honors program at UCI is worth it? Also, if anybody has information on either Muir college at UCSD or the campus wide honors program at UCI, I would greatly appreciate it!!
@steffflores Muir is probably the most favored college at UCSD. What specifically are you looking for from your undergraduate experience?
Agreed, Muir is the most coveted among incoming freshmen. Political Science and Cognitive Science are different… UCSD is great for the life sciences. Honors at UCI might give it a brownie point, but unless it also comes with money, it’s a small factor. Decide based on what the college can do for you in either field.
