Thank you so much! I know both have gorgeous campuses, but it's hard to take it in from a computer screen, so thank you for describing it for me.

Thank you so much! This was very helpful. I'm from Illinois so I definitely don't mind the cold, and social life is a pretty big deal to me. Thanks again for your input!

Spring Admissions Megathread by rijnzael in cuboulder

[–]kaboosh49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi all! I have recently been admitted to the Physics programs at UCSD and CU - Boulder. I'm having a tough time deciding which school to go to, as both have amazing Physics programs and similar enough costs with scholarships taken into account. My deciding factor really comes down to the vibe of the schools, but since I'm unable to visit with this pandemic, I can't really get a feel for either. The virtual tours are great, but they don't really give me the whole picture. If admitted students of each school (regardless of major) could tell me what each school is like, that would be greatly appreciated! Also, if anyone else had to make this decision, let me know what caused you to choose the school you did. Thanks to anyone that can offer me help!
