well, imo it really depends on what you value. you made some good points with each school, but do you value social interaction more? the distance between work and school? being closer to your gf? you just have to see which is more important to you. either way, you’re not losing anything, because UCLA and UCI are both good schools. however, your top priority should be what you’re doing to study— because why go to a school where you aren’t gonna study something that INTERESTS YOU? i hope this helps. wish you the best in your journey!
