My school is best known for being a reseach based school. In order to have any type of social interaction with others, you must be in a group project or be part of a sorority or fraternity and be willing to drink excessively. It is very expensive and you do not get good educationa advice unless you are in a less impacted major. The career department was not very helpful and I had to find my own internship.

UC Riverside is best known for it's great student activities, an amazing science department, and helpful and kind teachers. At UCR, incoming freshman are welcomed with a Block Party. This is a social event with concerts, food, and activities to get to know fellow students. The science department has help in many researches, including maleria and human development. The teachers and their aides are there if you need help and aren't intimidating.
