My best friend choice SD over LA. Asked if she regretted it and she said never, do it all again if she had to. Another friend of mine chose LA and recently graduated last year. Ate lunch with her the other day and she was telling me she regretted going to LA and wish she chose another school.

Honestly the only thing I can think of where LA>SD is the social scene. But again, college is what you make out of it and as long as you get off your butt and make some friends then there’s nothing to cry about. A lot of people I know that graduated from SD all talked about how even though it wasn’t crazy parties every weekend, they made some of their bestest friends there. And Campus, academics, competition, etc. are all on par with each other. I’m transferring this year and although I’m still waiting for LA decisions to come out, I’m more leaning towards SD particularly for my major. And besides SD has their own transfer dorm, one side COMPLETELY new! Gotta love that :)
