Please help! Need advice! UC Santa Cruz, Cal Poly, or Azusa Pacific??

Hi guys-

I need some advice on which college to attend after High school. My top 3 are Azusa Pacific, Cal Poly, and UC Santa Cruz, (in no particular order). I’m still undecided on my major, but I’m gonna go with Criminal Justice, Biology, Art/Photography/Graphic Design, or Liberal Arts (history teacher). I have yet to visit any of these campuses and would love to know which would you prefer and why. Azusa is probably my first choice because I would be going with my best friend, how much does this matter? -Thanks!

I would have to say that Azusa Pacific would be by far the lowest of my preferences, since it doesn’t have the reputation of the other two. Frankly, I also don’t think it is a great idea to go to college with your best friend from high school. Because you have already bonded, it shuts you off from meeting other people. In general, I would say that UC Santa Cruz is the strongest school, although Cal Poly is pretty good too. Neither offers Criminal Justice, though (neither does Azusa Pacific, from what I can tell).
