UCLA or UCSD (Graduate Computer Science)

<p>Hi, I was admitted to both UCLA and UCSD graduate school. I'm majoring in Computer Science (focus on graphics)... I'm not sure which to attend.</p>

<p>According to usnews graduate engineering rankings, UCSD is rank #11 and UCLA is rank #15. On the other hand however, UCLA probably has a more well known reputation and is nationally ranked overall at #25 (whereas UCSD is ranked at #35).</p>

<p>any opinions? </p>

<p>thanks, much appreciated.</p>

<p>Congratulations on getting into UCLA. As a Computer Science major here, I would be compelled to steer you towards UCLA but this is a very tough call between UCLA and UCSD. I would suggest visiting the CS departments of both universities and talking with current graduate students and faculty. Here's some links to add info:</p>
