Makes me want to walk into the ocean.
That's easy to say from the middle of Ohio. I'll take you more seriously when you move to one of the coasts.

Berkeley has its own "colleges" within the college for different departments, but at UCSD has different colleges you have to apply to regardless of major. Like you could be an econ major in the John Muir college or you could be an econ major in the Earl Warren college there. Your residency area and administration you deal with will be different, but your classes and curriculum will be the same as other econ majors regardless of what college they choose.
Still don't quite understand why it's like that.
Columbus is not the middle of Ohio. That is Centerburg, Ohio which is the geographical center of Ohio.
Right, that's the British system. My school was like that. OTOH I only applied to the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Had I gone through pure physics, I would have had to apply to selected colleges at my school, but been in the same classes as people from other colleges.
Today, the college system at my school mostly pertains to residence, languages/humanities courses and specific programs like theology or archeology. It's mostly a relic of the past.

Yeah man, that would be great. I have to figure out what is what though, I am not sure what the salaries for a position I could get pays and obviously the cost of living will be a LOT higher than here in Columbus.
Times like these, I really appreciate the forefathers fighting against the British.
I enjoy your dedication to being an asshole. It's impressive
lol.
I still don't get the schools within the schools thing. And both UCSD the school itself, as well as the "college" your department is in have to accept you. I was filling out the application like "wtf is this shit?"
Also, UC Davis had like 4 extra personal statements you have to do. I started filling it out and pretty much said "fuck this shit, I'm out" and never finished it.
Sounds thrilling.
Hahaha.
If you did it now, LA would have to be huge since half the population on the westside are bitter, ex-NYers who spend half their time calling back home to tell everyone how great the weather is.
I'll make this easy on you.
Find a job here first... then find the closest place you can live to that job that isn't ghetto.
And that might take some research because I've found that people that aren't from here just see palm trees and think everything's cool... it's not cool tho lol.
But if you buy a place in Fullerton and get a job in Santa Monica you're going to thoroughly hate your life.
