[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just one person and this is just one opinion. I’ve always been wary of “hot” or popular urban schools such as UCLA or NYU. Many students may be there to pursue a specific academic interest and take advantage of professional opportunities in the surrounding city, and that’s understandable. However, the ones who are drawn in by the brand name and exciting location alone without having a deeper reason to attend worry me more. I’d rather pay the $90,000 a year to an SLAC. [/quote]

The same student who wants a big public flagship generally doesn’t want a SLAC though. And UCLA is kind of ideal for students who don’t know exactly what they want to do as most programs are strong across the board. I also think schools like UCLA and NYU are amazing for personal growth. [/quote]

Except all the popular majors are impacted at UCLA, so good luck switching to one of those.[/quote]

Those entering as freshmen at UCLA can switch majors pretty easily. They prohibit major switching for transfers. [/quote]
