<p>I'd say UCSC...if you've visited their campus it's freakin beautiful. However, if you hate nature then you have a problem! Also depends where you're from. Nor Cal culture is a bit different from So Cal culture. UCSC you'll find more liberals and hippie types, they won't care about class and money as much as people down south. </p>
<p>Just my .02</p>
<p>I'm from Santa Cruz so might be a bit biased, I didn't even apply to UCSC though too close! Berkeley here I come!</p>
