I’m deciding between UCSD and UC Boulder. I like the geography of both places and at this point am most concerned with social life. I know Boulder is something of a party school but is UCSD not? I am also studying Oceanic and Atmospheric and Oceanic sciences at either places, I think that both places will be fine with that but if anyone has any more info (especially about Boulder’s program) let me know.
Big question: can I have fun on weekends at UCSD?
Oh man, the Scripps Institution is Oceanography is one of the top two schools in the country for oceanic sciences. How are you gonna study the ocean from a landlocked country??!
Yes, you can have fun on weekends at UCSD. As long as you make the slightest effort to make friends with people, you could be partying three to four times a week. Also, the area surrounding SD never runs out of stuff to do.
Wow, I said country, I meant state
