If you're yearning to experience college in sunny southern California, consider San Diego, the second largest city in the Golden State. Known worldwide as a leader in skateboarding and surfing, San Diego certainly lives up to its reputation as a pioneer in Board Culture. The city is also home to several professional sports teams, such as the Chargers and the Padres. Culturally, San Diego is a hotbed of arts and music, with a number of annual festivals that attract artists and musicians to the city.

The quality and accessibility of San Diego colleges and universities have made the city one of the most highly educated in the country. In particular, the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) is a leader in the fields of science and engineering. Graduates of UCSD are often able to find work with the extensive biotechnology sector based in San Diego, as are students of its neighboring San Diego State University (SDSU). In addition to outstanding academic programs in the sciences, San Diego colleges and universities offer an unparalleled student culture that is distinctly Californian.
