Oh my, you are in the same boat as my D. However, she is no longer considering UCLA since opting in the waitlist. Both are great schools, however the employment rate from SLO is excellent! That should be the deciding factor. As for what you want to study, (my daughter is Structural @ SD, ARCE @ SLO) UCSD is better than UCLA and SLO. Difference between SLO and UCs is SLO prepares you for a job after 4-5 years where UCs you may need a Masters.

Also, think of the distance and convenience. I know a lot of kids want to leave and go far away from home, but many become a bit homesick after the excitement dies down. Good luck. With your stats, you will do well at either.
