As one who posts frequently that the UCs are not worth the OOS money…IMO, only a few programs are worth it, and those programs are world-renown. For example, Engineering or Chem at Cal. UCLA theater/film. San Diego-bio-engineering. Davis-enology.

Sure, UCI (and even Riverside) have strong chem departments but for the most part, undergrad chem is undergrad chem. You could attend U-Dub, be a star, save big bucks, and matriculate to a top grad school. It’s a no-brainer.
