The course curriculum is very rigorous but extremely captivating. The chemistry and biology series is quite excruciating, but help understand in-depth the fundamentals of psychology and how our brains work. So far I have loved every class, including Math 34A (Calculus for Social sciences). If you prioritize studying and read after the lecture, it is easy to succeed in this program! I would love to provide a copy of the curriculum and my two-year plan if needed.
I pay on BARC about two weeks before the start of every quarter. The only loans I have used were given by the university and accessed on FinAid.ucsb.com. I have received the cal grant A award for 12,600 dollars, the federal Pell grant award for 3,000, and a UCSB scholarship for 4,000. All of which were given due to my family's financial need and military status.
UC Santa Barbara offers many great programs and classes for students that are great whether they are for your major or just recreation you get to enjoy each one of them since the professors are really down to earth and are willing to spend time with you. Some classes get full but that is why you have sections and get shorter classes with some really good TA's. I took Geography with Professor Sweeney and he has a lot of knowledge on the subject and he is also a pretty fun guy.
Coming to UCSB was pretty expensive but you have financial aid and many come here with scholarships which lower cost down. Also, dorm rooms keep going up that is why it's better to live outside of campus.
The curriculum is challenging. There is definitely no such thing as an easy A at this school. In my major especially, it's hard to even pass classes and I have had to retake a few classes. However, if you are disciplined and work hard you should be able to graduate.
Tuition, room, and board, textbook fees, lab fees. Student fees that go towards bus pass, Rec center memberships, and funding the school newspaper.
I like it. The courses offered are good and they could be expanded in terms of intersectionality and being a little more with the times. The Chicano studies classes that I take are much more recent meanwhile the focus for English is rather bland and boring.
The fees for this include housing, meal plan, books and tuition, and even parking if you are bringing a car. It's somewhat costly living in SB.
I think the quarter system here is very challenging and fast paced, but there's lots of resources that you can use to excel academically. Plus most of the programs here are ranked very highly, in comparison to other schools, making sure students retain the knowledge when they graduate.
The fees are pretty straight forward including tuition, room and board, CA resident fee and other university ones.
The curriculum isn?t too difficult, but they grade on a top 6% get an A scale, which means even if you get an A in the course, you might get a B or lower on your transcript it's a bad grading standard in that employers won?t know whether or not you actually understand the material.
Different quarters have different expenses. I don't know what the fee structure means in the question, but if you're interested in the tuition and the like, you can check out UCSB?s page and there's all the info there an estimated cost of attendance.
