@bigvoot i toured nearly all the UCs last year (around April with my CC) and of them, i found that UCSD had the most modelesque people (it literally looked like everyone was an Abercrombie and Fitch model- what is in the water there?), but UCSB had the most stereotypically Californian-looking students (unsurprisingly, a lot of people were dressed in beachwear, shorts, and flipflops) lmao

@FaithGraceUC UCSB Grant can be a part of Blue and Gold (If you received B&G) in that Blue and Gold is a general term that means a promise to cover your tuition through whatever grants they can provide you. I received the Blue and Gold Opportunity, which they fulfilled with Cal Grant A ($12,630). In addition, I received other grants, such as the UCSB Grant, because of my and my family’s financial background.
I have a question for everyone else: does UCSB offer the Regents Scholarships to transfer students?
Did you guys apply for the TSSP? It’s for STEM and econ/acct majors. I received an email acceptance today and there really isn’t a whole lot of info out about it.
