University of California-Santa Barbara Top Questions

how close i live to the beach, the beautiful weather, the easy-going atmosphere, the quality of my science classes and how the professors are extremely smart.

The partying (just to make them jealous, even though I don't party), and the scenery. Santa Barbara is full of beach people, students and residents alike. There are beautiful trees and parks everywhere, not to mention the weather, though a little cold, is flip-flop season all year long.

I usually brag about the beach and the crazy party scene.

That is it right on the water, there is always something new and interesting to do. You can get around easily without a car. I work on campus so that is a real plus

Mostly, the fact that UCSB is a party school is the first thing to come up. In terms of what so good about it besides the parties, there is of course, the environment. The environment around the school seems to be fresh. There's a hiking trail that leads to a cliff where you can see the ocean. So mostly, the scenery.

Usually, I tell them about crew, and how well we've been doing during the season. I also like to inform them of how amazing the weather always is in the land of eternal summer.

We're right by the beach.

When I talk about my school to my friends, I talk most about how it's better than other universities academically and socially. People say this school is well known for its parties so I go along and say that as well.

The beauty of the campus and the craziness of the social scene.

That in my school we study hard and party hard. We know how to have a good time and still get great grades due to the amount of help from the faculty and just the atmosphere that we are raised around. I show them the picture of my school, and i can see them in awe. It is a wonderful place to learn your major due to all the different possibilities this school gives you.. I will forever and always be a Gaucho.
