Hi I'm currently a third-year UCLA Psychobiology student so I can't comment on the quality of your son's major and each school but I similarly had to decide between UCLA, UCSD, and Berkeley. For some background, I am a transfer but I chose to finish high school early so I was 19 when I had to make this choice. You can search Reddit threads, Quora, etc, for comparisons of the aerospace engineering or engineering departments at each school but I'll give you insight that I wish I had when I was deciding. First, I would focus on what is important to your son and match those to how each university is known. I don't really think these three schools matter much in terms of differences other than prestige and bragging rights. Looking past the "name" of the school is something I wish was not put on such a pedestal because it doesn't matter nearly as much as well you're able to do in that school. You said that your son got a scholarship and I believe it's the Regents scholarship? If so, I would really prioritize the benefits of him receiving that (which isn't easy so congrats!). If it is the Regent's scholarship, he'll have access to a community of Regent's scholars, alumni, test banks (though some professional fraternities have these as well), and earlier enrollment (not sure if engineering is as big of a department but that might be able to allow him to get the classes he needs without having to stress out it every quarter/semester or take summer classes (save $) or even graduate early). If your son decides to live on campus, he'll have priority with housing such as being able to choose a university apartment (at UCLA these are hard to be accepted into as an underclassman because they are usually limited to athletes, Regents scholars, upperclassmen). Another aspect to focus on is location so if possible, tour the campus and the area surrounding it. Think about transportation/parking, off-campus housing prices and availability (Westwood is much pricier than La Jolla), safety, crime rates (my roommate had her car broken into and things stolen despite the fact that we live in Westwood), accessibility to restaurants/stores (UCLA has many options in Westwood village which is walking distance and this is not the case for UCSD). Everyday things like location, environment, culture, etc is what will enrich your experience or give you headaches when you are living in either La Jolla, Westwood, or Berkeley. This is a good gist of things that are overlooked and not talked about enough. If your son tries to appeal or decides to wait for acceptance to UCLA or Cal, you can still SIR UCSD and just forfeit the deposit if he ends up choosing somewhere else. Good luck with making the decision!

@@eriicaa_825 Love it, Thank you so much! He really wanted to go to UCLA, but he is on the waitlist. But if he can get to UCLA in the end, it is pity to lose the Regent's scholars from UCSD. That why I was debating myself. of cause, if he can get to UCLA in the end, I will support that. not pity for the money, but the rest of priorities. Again Thank you from both mom and son !!!

@@jingyak7 yep sorry I typed that in a rush but anyway if he ends up going to ucla or wants to ask more questions about ucla or ucsd my Instagram is @eriicaayu

@@eriicaa_825 thank you, my girl! We live in San Diego if you are near or a visit ! I will tell him .

@@eriicaa_825 do you need a car in lajolla? We live in northern LA county. But, I will drive him for visits. Sounds closer, and lower in cost than Berkeley.

Hillbillys need not apply.

@@antoniahamilton3201 thank god; what a waste of money😆👌

there's a beach

@@christinanadar2771 nice, thanks for sharing!:)

3.4 is not good enough to get u in either

@@maddiepaddy2608 Would you say weighted or unweighted is more important? I have a 3.65 unweighted, but over 4.3 weighted (4.8 is max if you take all AP classes)

@@lucaskim7098 4.3 weighted looks better than 4.0 unweighted because it shows you can handle harder classes and youre pushing yourself. i would say you have a shot but theres more factors than GPA

@@maddiepaddy2608 Yeah, for sure. I'm try to build my EC portfolio. Thank you for your input!

Pls don't be discouraged. There are tons of different aspects of a college application that will help you. And sometimes university might not work out and we have to have a new plan, so whatever decision you make isn't final if you change your mind in the future. You also have time until you graduate to make changes and be in a better position. Good luck with applications!
