Urgent!!!! CHOICE BTW UCLA & UCSD undergrad

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I got admitted by UCLA(marine biology) and UCSD(ecology and evolutionary biology).
I am having a very hard time choosing one of them. I am an undergrad student.</p>

<p>Here are my concerns:
1. College environment (For this one, i actually visited both school and i vote for UCLA).
2. Which school gives a better biology program according to the major i got admitted by.
3. Would it be better for me to choose UCSD since i will have a chance to study something broader as an undergrad student instead of concentrating so early in one field.
4. Chances of getting into a grad school... i intended to go to UCSD to finish a high degree. Does it matter if i choose LA or SD?</p>

<p>this is urgent, i have to make my decision in two weeks.
please give me some advices
thank you</p>

<li> IMO, the campus and immediate area is better at UCLA than at UCSD, but the town of San Diego is more pleasant and has s little bit better weather than LA.</li>
<li> Toss-up. Both are excellent.</li>
<li> Not sure I understand what you mean. UCLA and UCSD both offer a very broad range of courses.</li>
<li> Doesn’t matter. Both are great. What will matter more will be your grades and your research experience.</li>
</ol>

<p>for the third question, i mean is it better for me to choose SD since the major i admitted for SD, which is ecology and evolutionary biology compare to marine biology for LA, let me reaches into a broader field in biology.</p>

<p>i am not quite sure what you mean by research in point 4. can you give me some solid examples?</p>
