If you are sure you want to major in CS, and if you were admitted directly to CS at another college, then the best decision would be to go to that other college. On the other hand, if you are sure you want to go to UCSB, and if you would be OK with an alternate major if you don’t get into CS when applying as a sophomore transfer (after 2 years at UCSB), then go to UCSB.

There’s a thread from last year on this topic:
