I would contact UCSD regarding housing to make sure it is available at this late of date. Lower acceptance rates do not always equate to a more prestigious school. I would look at the Economics curriculum for each school to determine which would be a better fit academically and which program will get you to your post graduation goals. Also look at the Career centers for both schools, see which companies recruit for internships and jobs. Getting a job these days is not as dependent upon where you attend school but the skills you can bring to the employers after you graduate. Both schools are great options. Best of luck.
