Can anybody tell me the pros and cons of any of these major state universities?

Tell me whatever you'd like about any one of them. Would I, as a New Englander, fit in well? Are the campuses nice? What about the surrounding cities? Are people stuck-up and snobby? Were they not worth the cost? It doesn't matter what you say. University of Wisconsin -- Madison SUNY Binghamton University of Washington University of California -- Los Angelas University of California -- San Diego Penn State -- University Park The Ohio State University (because they get all huffy when you forget the "The" =P) University of Maryland -- College Park I'd only go to the California ones if I got good scholarship deals. Washington is expensive, but it's really not that different in cost from most of the other universities I'm considering.

1. Wow you must have some money U of Cali and they are great in academics its like almost $40,000 a year and U of Washington isnt cheap either it will cost $60,000 a year. I hear good things about U of Cali I dont know about the rest of them. Your best bet is to request information from all of these schools and if you can go to those schools and scope them out to see how you like them and if you can see yourself there. Also go on http://www.studentsreview.com and read reviews from students.



2. ^ thats not really how much UC schools cost, maybe for out of state, but i know its cheaper than that.

   UCSD is a great school, they have a very good reputation and its in san diego! i love it down here where its summer all year (except right now, its a little cloudy) they have one of the top leading medical centers (if thats ur interest) and its a nice campus in a good part of san diego. i have many friends who go there and they love it.




3. I can't tell you everything and have no personal experience at any of them but I recommend that you look to see what multiple students have to say on:

   Good luck! ^_^




4. UCLA is really nice! Westwood is such a nice area. There will always be snobby and stuck-up people, but there will always be friendly people at your school, wherever you go.

   But yeah, I went to UCLA to see a basketball game, and I had a really good time. The campus is really big though.

   I haven't been to UCSD, but I've been to San Diego and I love it. So I'm sure if you went to UCSD, you'll have a good time.

   Though paying for UCLA or UCSD might be a pain because of the budget cuts.

   You should visit the campus before you enroll
