<p>xx123xx: I'm thinking about going to UCI because I just received their financial packet and they're offering me 20k-ish a year from grants and scholarships.</p>
<p>Only thing is that I live in nor-cal which can be a pain to drive home and back, 800 miles total...</p>
<p>Yes I see, you are right collegemom. But I was looking more into the film aspect of art. Not sure if the mondavi center was focused more on music, theatre, and dance. I know UCI and UCSD have pretty good film schools(being that they're in socal.</p>
<p>hey... i was reading a while back and a person acted like they would rather go to UCI over SD. For all i no, SD is alot better than UCI but maybe it was personal reasons. but anyways, how many of you guys havent received notices yet?</p>
<p>best of luck either way... as for the UCI UCSD thing, rankings dont really matter to me, would just love to major in criminology although i dont no much about it... im also curious, any of u guys asians?</p>
<p>so am i lol... but my grades werent that great yet i did have a spectacular essay and some amendable EC's so im guessing that helped them decide. hopefully, if u guys are in the same situation as i was, than I wouldnt worry too much. IF in better state than i was, then even less to worry about...</p>
