UT Austin vs. UCSB honors

My dream school has been UCLA since forever, but after being waitlisted these are my top two options. I was admitted into UT Austin CNS, but no honors as opposed to UCSB honors. I see that the UCSB rankings are higher than Austin’s, but everyone keeps telling me to go to Austin! Can anyone compare the schools to UCLA or help me make my decision? Any help is appreciated.
