A UC that is ranked higher than it should be, in a city that smells like shit. It usually gets its ass handed to by Cal Poly in the Golden Horseshoe football game. Just another UC in the shadow of UCB and UCLA.

Located on an oceanside cliff in sunny La Jolla, UC San Diego is one of the world's top institutions for producing researchers, innovators, and awkward engineers. It is consistently ranked #1 by Washington Monthly, a magazine that nobody reads. As California's unofficial science department, UCSD research discovered the first evidence for climate change, the cause of diabetes, and a colony of endangered ants living in Chancellor Khosla's mustache. Its mascot, King Triton, is well-known as the most badass eunuch of all time.
UC San Diego is minutes from most of San Diego's world-class attractions. But if you're looking for UCSD students, you'll find them napping at Black's Beach wishing they could surf, waiting in line at TapEx, or hiding from social interaction in Geisel Library. Despite not having a football team, students find things to do, like studying for midterms between raves.
UCSD was designed with a unique six-college system, to give freshmen an easy conversation starter. These colleges (Revelle, Muir, Marshall, Warren, Roosevelt, Sixth) are considered pretty equal, except for Sixth. Campus-wide traditions like the legendary Sun God Festival unite the colleges as one university.
Out of its 200,000 graduates, UCSD has produced exactly four famous alumni: Nick Woodman, who founded GoPro, and those three interchangeable Asians from Wong Fu Productions. The other 199,996 are all out there somewhere, still complaining about not having gotten into Berkeley.

Dodger Mike and Mark Ondo tailgate in the parking lot drinking beverages.
Dodger Mike: Today's the day we end our 25-game losing streak to Riverside!
Mark Ondo: No one fucks with UC Irvine Football! Roll Eaters!
Dodger Mike: Zot! Zot! Zot!
Dodger Mike goes Bills Mafia and breaks a folding table in half.
Mark: That table is DEAD DEAD DEAD! Eaters Mafia Baby!
Dodger Mike and Mark fist pump and then pass out drunk, which causes them to miss the non-existent game.

A 4 year university located at the top of a hill looking over Monterey Bay. UCSC is known for 420, or April 20th of every year, a day dedicated to smoking weed in a field with thousands of people to light enormous blunts and get high. UCSC is also known for its hippie-loving, liberal, feminist, and stoner stereotypes.
The UC Santa Cruz mascot is a banana slug, chosen for its "docile and peaceful" nature. It basically embodies Santa Cruz's laid-back vibe and works perfectly as a very non-intimidating mascot since Santa Cruz has no sports teams to boast about. School pride is lacking since most of the school's population is too busy taking bong rips and eating munchies anyways.
The school's campus itself is considered one of the most beautiful campuses in the US. The entire campus is a redwood forest. You'll do a lot of walking on the UCSC campus because the buses are always late and take too long anyways.
UC Santa Cruz is often said to have a very quiet nightlife and weekend parties merely consist of smoking weed. If you're a stoner, that's probably true. For the 21+, Motiv and the Red Room become common bar stops. And house parties happen every weekend, its just about finding them since they’re DL because of the 10 PM city curfew.
Overall an often underrated, funky college campus with good things to see and people to meet for an open-minded college student.
