ez solution: get a high GPA and good P/SAT/II scores, go to USC and don't worry about budget cuts!

i'm actually 100% serious about this


Don't u need $$$ for that? or is there financial aid or something ?_?

if you have the stats, USC gives out full/half tuition scholarships like candy (ok not really but you'll have a pretty good shot at one)

also if you don't have the stats but your family doesn't make that much money you'll also pretty much attend for free.

If you do get into UCSB, I HIGHLY recommend going there. It's a great school, is in a beautiful area, has gorgeous women and has parties like no other. I seriously can't say enough good things about that university.

Goodluck!

hopefully i can get into berkeley cause thats my number 1
if i can get into an ivy that would be super cool but i'm not counting on it

Not getting into SD with that, oh my fucking god. Appeal that shit, you're way above the UCSD standards. The best excuse they can give you is prob "Not enough extra curriculars"

If you end up going to Irvine, I"ll personally give you the most non homo bear hug in the world.

no extracurriculars = you're not going anywhere.

@Humbug

Seeing as how every university is able to portray there campus as a beacon of all things good in the universe via brochure/virtual tour, campus visits are crucial. It's the place you will be spending all of your time for the next four years. How do you like the culture there? Are there things to do? Can you picture yourself living there? Ask yourself those questions and see if you think you fit in.



sorry, have to disagree with this. When you visit, you get to meet like a total of 10 students there, perhaps spend the night with them? You drop in on a couple classes, get bombarded by some guide with the usual info. You get to see a very small sample of what the campus has to offer. Visits don't do jack.

Extra curriculars are stupid. I could have lied on mine, and I know a lot of people who lied about theirs, and the UC's have no way of finding out. When you apply on their site, they just have you list what you've done, how many hours, and provide a really short description.

Bad neighborhood, nonexistent campus culture, depressing as fuck.


OK, I heard about the crime-rate problem. I don't see how non-existent campus culture is bad, though. I mean, do you WANT to have partying and loud music playing all the time while you are trying to study?

Trust me, it's better than not having the option. There are always quiet places you can go to study.

Well, I am more bothered by the crime rate.
I may apply for JHU next year, but I won't do it if going to JHU places me in the middle of gang wars and gun violences. Afterall, Baltimore has the highest rate of homocide in the states.

Johns Hopkins has quite the reputation, along with UChicago to a lesser extent. Terrible neighborhood, right smack dab in the middle of where you don't want to be.

Oh so it isn't true that if you step outside campus, you might get shot? Just a running myth that spreads around everywhere. Figured since it was smack dab right in Baltimore, with the notorious crime rate in the area it was just a given.

But it's nice to hear schools stepping up the security. Shit, I wouldn't ever want to go to a school that has apathetic security.

Lol at all the stuff about Jons Hopkins and UChicago. I guess nobody even brings up New Haven anymore when people talk about unsafe places!
