U.C. Santa Barbara Map and Imagery Lab Review

From Michael Douglas to Justus Hanna to the next eager mind that's ready to matriculate in the fall, know now that this is going to be the place for you! Even if you don't know it yet mark my words with whatever it is that this generation uses to put marks on stuff and get to going at it because mark my words again I'm right. And you'll know what I mean the first morning you wake up from.....

Actually I'll stop there and leave it up to you to fill in the rest.

Great place to learn and live!

UCSB is a spin master school and a subset of the larger university of california,
whose graduates and leaders have done more to promote the complete and utter environmental ruination and undoing of what once was the most beautiful place: California. It has served to destroy freedom, civil rights, ethics and morality, replacing it with their handbook of policies that protect their personal business interests that seek to advantage a minuscule population at the expense of millions. They will try to take your life, number you, tell you what to do, where to do it, when you should do it. Track you, undermine you, spy on you, break into your housing units, and terrorize you. They will arrest you for skateboarding. Steal your bike if you don t lock it. Falsely accuse you of anything they want to if they feel like it.

University dining and housing is corrupt. This is what happens when unintelligent uncaring mean people are given power and position who don t believe in the rights of man, only in narrowly defined policies that undermine U.S. Constitutional law. Unlawful entry into dorm rooms and university apartments by staff is common. Intentional detonating of fire alarms in university buildings used to harass the population. Random unlawful searches. Over-billing practices-phone, barc accounts, dining accounts. Roving band of undercover employees narcs, spies, and watches. Executive leadership overpaid and incompetent. Lottery-style housing, financing, and life gives random success based on nothing but chance instead of work effort. Affirmative action policies giving high level supervisorial positions to unqualifieds, who use the positions and money to attempt to reverse educate and qualify themselves. An administration of me instead of service. Overfunded athletics. An unserious school that takes being absolutely incompetent seriously. Spend days and months disputing bills. Have your student account blocked.

Outstanding professors in the Spanish Dept. where I enjoyed novels, poetry and plays in Spanish. I will never forget Mr. Albarracin!

Admitted for coming fall 2014! YEAH! Can't wait to attend this gorgeous campus!

Beautiful campus. Lots of bikes. Lots of food choices. People on campus seemed genuinely happy.

cool place until the night time then all the freaks come out lol

One of the nicest UC campus' I've seen. Definitely worth seeing.

An amazing beach campus and great eatery options around it.

warm! I;d recommend going around the campus and the beach area. Also go during the holidays it very fun!

The best school for academic and social life in the world! If you don't agree it's because you have never attended this school... UCSB #1

A world class university situated on 708 acres (main campus) located on the cliffs above the Pacific Ocean. It is part of the 10 school University of California system and was founded in 1944. The original campus is located on a former Marine Corps base. Some of the original marine corps buildings are still in use today. It is one of the few Universities in the United States that has it own beach.

Great school for engineering and sciences!
I wasn t forced to take many GE classes as an engineer but the diversity course requirement forces just about every student to receive exposure to the ______ studies departments which are categorically anti-American, progressive trash. I would not send my children here to pursue any nontechnical degree.

The physical location and quality of the campus are incredible.

Awesome school, very good city, now many Chinese people buy a house here to send their children to school. Everyone here can pay attention to it. At that time, I found a professional director to take me. People are young and patient. Everyone needs You can add his WeChat, huangzong111

An amazing campus with a view that takes your breath away

Yes, the weather is great most of the year, and being located right next to the beach, are all great selling points to students, but this is also a great academic university. It's the place local tech companies are looking to grab great young talent.

It is almost as difficult getting a job here as it applying to be a student. Positions are covered and always competitive. I applied to almost 30 jobs before I was able to even get an interview. Well worth it.

If a random business man says that he'll pay for your college tuition once you graduate high school, he's probably lying #ScottsTots

Very beautiful university.Secure and with its own beach

Beautiful weather. Beautiful views. Plenty of areas to walk and be outdoors. Lovely!

Great campus and facilities. Surprisingly easy access!

The famous party s college.
Amazing place and great view,clam.

is it available in this college master of computer science department.

I live in santa barbara county but live in isla vista for more then a couple of years and first time I check out ucsb and only went cause there is alot of history that ucsb was built on top of.

Beautifull location and produces a good human beings.

I absolutely adore UCSB! This place has the perfect combination of excellent academics and a gorgeous location right on the beach! Don't believe the stereotype that UCSB is a "party school". Within the last 5-10 years the party scene has greatly dissipated due to increased competition for admission and an extreme emphasis on superior education.

one goes to U Can Study Buzzed to party, not to study.

My favorite place at US, I will never forget UCSB and every moment I spent here. I love UCSB!

Fantastic campus beside the sea! Envy of the students here

Campus point is the perfect family beach visit great waves great families

The most beautiful among all UC campuses. Its academic strengths are way underrated. UCSB has very good programs in engineering. A nice place to do a PhD.

Beautiful campus with it's own beach and views from the cliff. Around UCSB are a couple small family owned fast food restaurants. Sometimes I wish I would've moved here for the university years instead of staying in the cold dread winters of the Midwest ;)

Clean, upbeat environment. Especially love the amount of open tennis courts and outdoor exercise areas.

What a wonderful place to come visit. I was so impressed with the high quality of education here, and also, the wonderful location, the entire spirit and vibe of this school.
I had taught summers at UCLA for 10+ years, but never ventured down here before, so I was very pleasantly surprised.
I will definitely be back to do a whole tour and check this school out. I love that it is in such a pretty Cali location, if you are looking for a school that is away from the crazy LA life, this is it.
Congratulations to all the wonderful grads I met, and especially, our darling Amanda .

I graduated 6 years ago. I love UCSB but I also see the pros and cons of attending this gorgeous campus.
Pros:
Top notch professors, including noble prize holders. Gorgeous campus right on the beach. Perfect weather. Academically challenging. Top research school in California and in the nation. Nationally recognized. Part of the prestigious UC system. Great value for a quality education.

Cons:
You will feel like a number, one in a million. At times you will feel lost in a sea of students. My first class was a psychology course with 900 students. Yes, 900. Professors won't know your name. There is little diversity. Your morals and values will be challenged daily living in a college town lol. You might end up graduating with a drinking problem and know several people who will too. You will be fixated on your weight and become very weight conscious.

All that being said, I absolutely love UCSB and don't regret living there for 4 years. I had the worst time of my life and the best time of my life there. UCSB is not for everyone and I know a couple of people who transferred out. Most of them to UC Santa Cruz because that was more their scene. UCSB is a party school and everything you hear about that is true. Yet you're surrounded by very intelligent people who care about their academics and most of them put school first. I was admitted into a competitive grad program for my MBA at a smaller private school, and I absolutely recommend going the smaller school route. I really enjoyed it coming from a school of tens of thousands. Although I wouldn't trade my UCSB experience, I would never allow my 8 month old daughter to attend UCSB when she's older. It's much too liberal.

Recent campus review\ visit day. Nice local and campus... not at all great. Overpriced and little or no help for top out of state students. Oh well ND, Michigan, Havard etc. here I come. I can always move to Cali after I graduate but without 200 grand in debt.

The most beautiful campus in California and even in the USA. mild temperatures in all four season around the year and sunny almost always. Great area to walk in and even the surrounding Isla Vista is great.

I won't know how it is like, because I didn't get in. Admissions is a bunch of fake news.

Beautiful campus.
On vacation with my family and this is a stop we had to make.

One of the top colleges in the US and the world. Many Nobel prize winners are teaching here.

I studied at UCSB for two quarters as an exchange student last year. A+ campus and friendly students with good vibes! With fine weather all year round and located right by the beach with beautiful coastlines, UCSB is every student's dream school. And I especially appreciate the industriousness of their students! Yes they party, but they study harder! (This I witnessed!) I'm now in the States again and will go back to UCSB this weekend to give my favourite university a visit. Go Gauchos!

Amazing campus spent 3 days 2 nights for CLOP back in April 2016. Planning on attending when its my time to look for school

This campus is amazing it's hugely diverse & complete with nearby shopping entertainment Adventure companies. Something for every person at any age in your family!

Amazing school. The beach, people and classes make the experience.

Beautiful campus. Did my freshman year of college here. Students can be pretty superficial, but there are some rare, great people if you look in the right places.

Graduated YEARS ago but still visit several times a year because I have serious withdrawals. I am the luckiest mom on earth though because now my daughter attends UCSB. Now I have a built in excuse to visit ! The combination of the breathtaking location, perfect weather, laidback physical environment, stimulating academic environment, and friendly people cannot be topped at any world-class university. I just flat-out LOVED it there. My daughter is already hooked as well.

i hate it here, the only part i like is jumping in the water naked late at night

The most beautiful campus I have ever seen. Visitor friendly with the nice visitor center and easy parking. Taking school here should be quite fortunate.

It's a beautiful place which is near the beach. Students are very happy living there

A great school for anyone who values community and positivity as much as a challenging & growing work environment.

Amazing place for a Campus... Right off the Freeway... Right next to the Airpirt.. Serene Ocean Views.. and a Pier right outside the UCSB gates!! What more would a student need...

Great value for the money! A world class research university set on the beautiful California coastline.

I'm obviously biased - but it's the most beautiful and friendly campus

The best years of my college career were at UCSB. One of the best UC campuses around - located just a couple minutes from the beach by foot, with mountain views as well. Strong reputable academic programs with Nobel laureates to show. Challenging coursework but in a collaborative environment. Definitely would recommend.

One of the top schools for computer science. Nice weather throughout the year.

Good college for any one ! my brother is one of the students they have really big beach out there really beautiful a lot of trees and they have Very strong anion I miss this place but right now my brother is graduation not there anymore I still like to go there to see the beautiful trees l like this place so much !!

Liked it! ! For Getting Further information its necessary to admit into it!! #

I love this campus but why not some free parking areas for visitors ? A few hours free would be a gracious gesture given everybody's taxes help pay the bills

Best place to study abroad, the weather, the people, the location, everything is incredible.

Great campus, surrounding beaches and cliff side trails are great.

The best 4 years of my life! It is absolutely one of the most beautiful campuses I have been to. The place is really welcoming, which makes studying less stressful and more engaging with the community.

Worst school ever for me, the professors in some sectors are a joke...Also, watch out for the school misc. expenses for they will wipe you clean if you let them. The financial dept. messed my whole school life up because of the misinformation that many people from many depts. gave me. So, carefully watch your billing statement every quarter while attending here. For e.g. they force you to have their health insurance which costs over $800 a quarter (and the insurance is horrible) along with many other insane fees they will tag you with. I am relieved to be done with this place. Yeah it's a pretty view, but it also smells like sewer and some of the class rooms (that they never show you on tour) are absolutely horrible.
