What major within Gies?*
-
Dilbert
January 26, 2024, 20:25:42
Don’t think that’s picked yet. The acceptance just said Business Undecided.*

Ah right. Maybe you don't declare right away anymore at Gies.

Little north of that. He’s also waiting for Northwestern—that’s 90K plus.*

What's the damage on a UCSB vs a UI OOS in terms of tuition, room and board?*
-
Carl Spackler
January 26, 2024, 17:21:55
instate UCSB is like $15k and out-of-state illinois is like $35k....

I didn’t compare in-state, since that wasn’t relevant to me. I wouldn’t be surprised…

I pushed (unsuccesffully) for at least a college visit to USD, UCSD, and/or SDSU.*

UCSD and UCSB somehow are now ranked in the top 30 and both have outstanding campuses....

-
Sounder
January 26, 2024, 17:39:06

I’ve gotten the impression UCSB has like 5x the “college experience” as UCSD*
-

January 26, 2024, 17:21:59
