<p>Cal vs. Santa Barbara would be my guess. What’s ranked highest Cal, Michigan or UVA? Beachy? Must be SB.</p>
<p>IMO, you’d be just fine in the honors program at SB and meet like minded students. And Cal would not be worth the $40K in debt by any means. SB is an outstanding town, you’re close to beaches, mountains, LA–lots to do to escape the dreaded Isla Vista.</p>
