Indeed, if it's not Ivy League you're not a TRUE elite.  :tophat

I thought you were a developer?  Didn't you work in the games industry?  Congrats, BTW.  College is fun times.

That's not too bad a school.  If you do well there, you can easily get into a top graduate program anywhere in the country.  Friends who've studied at both Cal Sate and UCs told me that the teaching was a lot more intimate at Cal State and it's generally a more nourishing environment.  So yeah, I think you've found a good place to build a solid set of fundamentals.

Yep. UCs are more research focused than the CSUs.  But with the recent tuition hikes, it's hard to find lower priced public universities in California.

Yeah I still work in the games industry, but sadly, nowhere near a developer position. I mean, I got some designing credits for a few games with my company (one of which that was an absolutely TERRIBLE pet sim), but I did QA stuff like 97% of the time.

Yeah, CSUN is actually a pretty fine school, and they got some really nice facilities. It's just a little depressing since me and my friends would make fun of people who went to CSUN due to its ridiculously high acceptance rate.

But yeah, I'm gonna go there for my B.A., and hopefully do graduate work at UCLA.

Yeah, I'm transferring, so I already got the first two finished. I haven't been in high school for the past 7 years. :P

Congrats, dude! 

Make us history majors proud! :rock


Don't cry, maybe in 4 years the economy will recover and they'll start giving jobs to history majors again!

College

:rock

Part of me really wants to do a master's degree part time, but none of the programs in the area that I'm really interested in offer part-time programs.

You're not a liberal elite until you forgo the private sector and hole up in a public university teaching job to indoctrinate the young minds of America.

You're almost halfway there!

Congrats man!

I'm yet to be accepted since I just sent out everything, damn the waiting game can be tough.
Did you apply for Winter?
