Which of the 6 colleges is good for psychology majors?

I'm interested in Psychology and I need some insight on which of the 6 would be good for me. I've already started the UC application.

Muir's awesome. Little Ge=More freedom in choosing the classes you want to take.

I'm gonna throw out Marshall as a suggestion (I'm a Psych major in Marshall).

It's one of the easier colleges for GEs if that's something you're looking for...the only thing that sucks for me is that we've still got to do some science courses.

If another college is your first choice, I'd suggest putting Marshall somewhere in the top 3 or 4 and probably revelle as the last choice just because there's a lot of GEs and there's a bunch of math and science and stuff.

If you're a transfer that is completing IGETC, keep in mind that not all the colleges accept IGETC as having completed all your GEs while some do.

I am also a psych major in Marshall, so if you get stuck here instead of at Muir, don't sweat it. It's only my second year, first quarter, and I'm almost done with GE's. Heck, I won't know what to do with myself during spring quarter... not enough units to start taking upper-division psychology classes, and lots of elective spaces... maybe I'll learn a language, or take some classes that are of true interest to me, who knows? But the bottom-line is that no one college is best for the psychology major, any student from all six colleges can take any psychology course.
