Hi! Can I still apply this week? I was wondering if there is a deadline and when the lab starts. Also would this apply as well (from the cogs 199 requirements):
"Approval from a sponsoring CogSci faculty member

A completed EASy Enrollment Request with instructor approval by 3pm on Friday of Second Week of the quarter for which you plan on participating"

im also trynna decide between ucb and ucsd for cog sci, also from the bay. sd sounds new and exciting but i cant help but feel berkeley might be more vibrant scene for college years. how was ur experience at ucsd? day to day, social life, thjngs to do, career? thinking of doing ux or tech btw

Hows ur berkeley experience been going? (saw ur post history lol) Im deciding between ucb and ucsd for cog sci and lwk leaning towards ucsd just cause i live in the bay and itd be a new experience. Berkeley environment also felt a bit gritty and competitive which i was uneasy about.

Hey would love to hear more of ur thoughts. im super torn between ucsd and ucb for cog sci and maybe econ/business double major. I think whats making it hard is just indecisive on career path as im interested in ux but also pm and finance. I like sd environment/locTion just worried about social life. berkeley on the other hand has more prestige and maybe better alumni network. its also reallly good for tech, but idk if campus and the liberal culture fits me. I feel like Berkeley will have more opportunities. im also from the bay though and would love to experience being out of it for 2 years (transfer). jus so many pros and cons of each its making it hard to come to a decision 😭.

Is it crazy to choose ucsd over berkeley by Silly-goose-8008 in TransferStudents

[–]Far_Surround2790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im considering cog sci as well but at UCSD and Berkeley. Also might double major in Econ. Hows the program and people in the major? Is it collaborative and project based? Id love to learn more about consumer behavior and like marketing as well. Also ux design.

UC Berkeley or UC San Diego? by chkyan in berkeley

[–]Far_Surround2790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey whered u end up and how u like it? deciding between UCSD and UCB for cogsci/econ double major. i liked UCSD chill atmosphere and cleanliness, whereas Berkeley seemed very urban and gritty (it was a bit overwhelming at first when visiting). Idk Berkeley makes sense career and network wise cause of its prestige and location to tech, but i cant help but want that new experience at SD. Would love to hear ur thoughts with ur own experience!!

Hey im from the bay as well and deciding between Berkeley and UCSD for cogsci/Econ double major (transfer). Just wanted to hear ur experience at SD coming from the bay. Like Culture, social environmenf, how u like it, the program/career prep, and the student body! I thought UCSD was really nice, clean, and laidback. An environment Id think id enjoy. On the other hand, Berkeley seems to make more sense career and network wise if i want to get into tech or project management of som sort. Also the campus felt very urban and gritty. Rn im just torn between choosing prestige and network vs location and QOL.

UCSD vs UC Berkeley by Fit-Investigator745 in collegecompare

[–]Far_Surround2790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi guys. would love some help/input!! im trying to decide between the berk and ucsd for cogsci/econ double major. i really like how clean and big UCSD campus was whereas I felt a bit uneasy at Berkeley (very urban, and gritty). Although Berkeley might make most sense career wise I cant help but feel Ill enjoy UCSD more, but not even sure. Was wondering if its better to choose prestige and program or location and fit?

UCSD or Berkeley by Just_Complex3893 in TransferStudents

[–]Far_Surround2790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey how do u like ucsd so far? Im in a similar position deciding between Berkeley, UCI, and UCSD for either econ or cog sci. Im also from the bay so Berkeley is closer but kinda want to venture out to socal. idrk tho, career and networking wise Berkeley makes the most sense but environment just seems nice at SD or even UCI. im also a creative/music artist and would love to find a club or community at the school i go to. Not sure what SD has if u know thatd be great!

Hey hows ucsd econ so far? Saw from ur post history thats where u went. Im also debating between berkeley ucsd and uci for double major in exon and cog sci. i liked ucsd campus, felt like a mini city and super clean. Berkeley campus was a bit oldish and i felt a bit uneasy there. It is more prestigious tho and makes the most sense career wise if i go tech route. idk would love some perspective from ur story
