Would UCLA prefer someone from NYU or UCI?

I dont see what the big deal is with NYU…ooooo special NYU. The FACT of the matter is…the top 6 UCs are in the top 50 of all nationally ranked universities, including Irvine.

With that being said, Its not like Irvine is so below NYU as to constitute the move to the east coast. The real problem sounds like a pride issue…“I tried too hard in high school to go to a ccc”. If you REALLY want to go to UCLA, my advice is GET OVER YOURSELF. Wise up and go to a CC, get a high GPA, and get in to UCLA. Otherwise, you are just wasting money and possibly a higher chance of getting in. You COULD fail out at NYU and then what??? Why not go to CC and Ace all your classes? And as far as being better prepared by going to NYU, were do you get off saying that? All of the CC courses are UNIVERSITY LEVEL, thats why they transfer TO a university.
