WHAT IS THE COLLEGE SYSTEM?
UC San Diego’s small colleges - each with about 5,000 undergraduates - help you thrive in a welcoming community. Students have access to personalized advising, support services and leadership opportunities with all the advantages of one of the best large, Tier 1, research institutions in the world.
College assignment is not based on major. Students may study any major regardless of college affiliation. Rank the colleges on the UC Application!
WHAT MAKES EACH COLLEGE UNIQUE?Each college has their own philosophy and traditions, as well as their own General Education requirements. Visit admissions.ucsd.edu/why/colleges for more information and a list of the General Education requirements for each college.
HOW DO I RANK THE COLLEGES ON MY UC APPLICATION?
Each applicant to UC San Diego is required to rank the colleges on their UC Application. We recommend reviewing each college’s General Education requirements and philosophy when completing your ranking.
Students who are offered admission are assigned a college based on this ranking.
College assignment is not affected by major choice or academic interest. Any student in any major can be assigned to a college and take full advantage of all resources.

“Something unique about UC San Diego is the fact that we have the College System. Coming in, you get placed in a community right off the bat. You feel welcomed in every sense because every student in that community is part of the same college. We are all nervous for our first year or for our first time at a large campus, but with the College System, you feel like you are not just a number anymore.”
