UCLA vs UCI CHP vs Paid to go to CSUF

<p>Hi everyone! Hope this is in the right place - I'm a first time poster. Well here's the dilemma. I was admitted to UCI and into their campuswide honors program. I would go for free, plus a couple K extra each year. My major here is Political Science. After a long process of applications and an interview, I was offered the President's Scholarship at Cal State Fullerton. Please look it up, the benefits are fantastic. I would be paid about 70,000 after 4 yrs. at CSUF. But I cannot get over the fact that it's 'just' a Cal State. Here my major is American Studies. I was also admitted into UCLA, and into their Alumni Scholars Club, which only gave me 1,000 per year. I would have loans and consequently interest if I attend UCLA, which I would not have at the other schools. Here my major is political science. The goal after receiving my BA is law school. I applied and was admitted to 3 other schools, but these three are the ones I'm considering. Please offer any insight, it is much appreciated.</p>

<p>I say UC Irvine!</p>

<p>Congratulations on such wonderful options! </p>

<p>You might post in the pre-law forum to see what folks think of CSUFullerton as a gateway into law. It’s hard to imagine it would be a problem.</p>

<p>Or contact CSU Fullerton and find out if you can contact other graduates that have gone on to law school.</p>
