<p>Hi. So I've really been struggling with deciding which college I should go to. I've been accepted into great schools and I 've narrowed it down to these three. I love the campus and the weather at UCSD and they offered me the Chancellor's Scholarship, which pretty much covers tuition including financial aid. If UCSD weren't offering me money, I wouldn't consider it that much. On the other hand UCLA is a lot more expensive, but I feel really at home there, not to mention the prestige. I feel like UCLA has a lot more to offer regarding the wider variety of majors, but correct me if I'm wrong.
I have been considering SLO a lot lately though. I thought that it wasn't where I wanted to be, but I love the idea of learn by doing. I still have no idea what I might want to major in or what kind of career I might like and this has proved to be a huge obstacle in making a decision about college. For SLO, I couldn't go undeclared, so I just chose architecture as a major since I've heard it is the number one architecture school in the country and I have considered architecture as something I might love to do. But if it turns out that I'm not cut out for architecture, I'll be stuck there.
So I'd really like to know more about Obispo since I've never been there. What's the school life like? The diversity? The community? the food? Also is it true it is easier to find a job if I graduate from SLO?
Also which school out of these three would be best for an undeclared person like me to attend? </p>
<p>Honestly, especially since you’re uncertain about what you will end up doing, Cal Poly won’t be the best choice for you. Like you said, it’s extremely difficult to switch majors. If you “just chose architecture” because it was the #1 school, that might not be a strong enough reason to bind yourself to that path. </p>
<p>If financial costs are a huge factor, UCSD would be the best choice. However, in the area of prestige and life in a huge city, UCLA would be a good choice - you also mentioned you feel right at home there.</p>
<p>Have you visited Cal Poly? It might make your decision clearer. </p>
