What are you aiming at? If you plan on going to grad school, I think a UC is still the way to go, unless one of the CSU you mention is known in the field. You might check out the Graduate Cafe website forthat information.

Haven’t heard of that.
I’m trying to figure out how the LING programs are, but that’s been the hardest

I would agree about the grad school part. Because UCs are more research oriented you’re a lot more prepared to go to grad school. CSUs are more hands on and can get you the experience you need to get ready to go out and work in the industry after you graduate. This is kind of the reason why I see CSUs are more like a vocational school, but in a traditional university setting. You can tell by the kinds of majors CSUs offer, since there can be broad majors but they also have majors that can be more specific to what you would want to study. Because UCs lack that “experience” field, a lot of UC students find internships to fill that gap.

It’s really what you’re looking for. In terms of ranks, you can find ranks that can rank a university really high or really low it just depends on how you look but most of those rankings don’t include how they’re evaluated for that rank. I would do a little research (if you’re concerned with ranks) what kind of Linguistics program they have at each university to see which one you would want to go to.
