Opinion on Admission into UCSB

[qq92]

I have recently been admitted into the Materials PhD programme at UC Santa Barbara. Whilst I am aware that it has been highly ranked by several bodies, I would like a more educated opinion from people here. Is it really as good as they say it is? I am slightly worried as I am an international student. The reputation of UCSB isn't very significant outside of the US and I am hoping I am making the right decision to invest at least 5 years of my life there

Hi qq92

I don't have any opinion to share, rather I am also applying to same program in spring 2017. Will it alright if you can share some details of your profile. I want to get a fair idea of the kind of profiles that the program accepts.

 

Many thanks,

Ank
