<p>Chose UCSD over UCLA in computer engineering. LA is really not my city. Dirty, traffic… It makes me a little dizzy everyday if driving to school.
From my view:
ranking(involves many weird factors, like staff/student ratio, % of pro. is full time…):
UCLA >= UCSD</p>
<p>but if just compare how good is the program:
UCSD >> UCLA
(in math, > means greater, >> means a lot greater)</p>
<p>UCSD over CMU. It was a very tough decision and I don’t even know if it was the right one. </p>
<p>I didn’t really care about the other colleges I got into.</p>
<p>i also chose it over ucla…for neuroscience though.</p>
<p>i also got into sb and davis.</p>
<p>UCSD over UCI and UCD. Not a hard choice, considering my major (neuroscience related)</p>
<p>might not be a fluke. one of my freshman roommates and i both chose ucsd over berkeley. that’s 2/3 right there. i never inquired about the rest of my suite though.</p>
<p>why would it have been a fluke?? bc its something you cant believe?? a lot of those kids are bioE kids too so they generally say thats one of the main reasons
for me it was a personal preference choice, but that also added to it</p>
<p>I chose UCSD over UCD, UCI w/ Regents (really tempting, it was almost a full ride), and Cal Poly SLO. Since I’m doing computer engineering, Cal was my first choice, but I have to say SD’s campus is way better. 
Their program isn’t bad either.</p>
<p>i chose ucsd over cal (and many other uc’s) because it was just the right fit. (didnt apply to ucla, didnt want to go anyway) and guess what! i not a science major. ooh!</p>
<p>UCSD over UCLA and UCI.</p>
<p>I think I made the right choice (boo, UCLA) but I miss LA…</p>
<p>UCSD over UCD, UCSB, UCM, and Cal Poly SLO and all of them minus SB gave me full rides…but i think i made a good choice lol</p>
<p>UCSD over UCLA, U Maryland, Columbia, for PhD in CS</p>
<p>UCSD over UCB, UCLA, UCD, UCI, Cal Poly SLO</p>
<p>My D chose UCSD over UCLA, UCD, UCSB, UCI, U of Washington, CMU. She’s a biology major.</p>
<p>ucsd over ucd, ucsb, ucsc, uci, ucr and forgot some others… this was the best i got into =(</p>
<p>chose UCSD over Univeristy of Illinois - Urbana Champaign both for Electrical Engineering</p>
<p>@bluecow</p>
<p>You sound excited.</p>
<p>As a transfer I picked UCSD for Molecular Biology over UCLA’s Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology major. </p>
<p>It was a very close call, I asked for an extension for the UCLA SIR twice and made my final decision in July. That said I’m pretty happy with my choice and there isn’t much discrepancy between the two Biology departments and imo, La Jolla >>> Westwood. Only thing I’d change about UCSD is I wish we had D1 sports teams, I’d love to be able to a college football game every week.</p>
<p>UCSD over UCSB and UCI, the only two other schools I got into. You have no idea the depression I suffered after my rejection from LA and Cal.</p>
<p>I chose UCSD over UCLA, UMich, Rose Hulman and USC.</p>
