<p>UCLA definitely does not guarantee you a six figure salary. Even students from MIT and UCB won’t get six figure base salaries.</p>
<p>On a side note, you should consider that UCLA’s engineering department is one of the stronger departments on campus. It’s truly nice to go to a campus that has a healthy engineering department (high enrollment, number of professors/research, and student activities). But I don’t expect to see a considerable difference in the courses on the fundamentals of your engineering major between the two schools…</p>
