Why California’s Public Universities Are So Good

- California has had a rough few years. Wildfires, drought, flash flooding and mudslides have devastated parts of the state and driven away major homeowners insurance providers. Retailers are leaving San Francisco en masse and tech companies-including Meta, Slack, Salesforce and PayPal-are slowly moving jobs out of that city, subleasing or selling their office space in favor of remote work. Housing is unaffordable for many and homelessness is growing. Meanwhile, one California jewel continues to shine-its state college system.
Four of the University of California’s 10 campuses earned a spot in the top 25 on Forbes’ 2023 America’s Top Colleges list: the University of California Berkeley (#5); the University of California, Los Angeles (#7); the University of California, San Diego (#21); and the University of California, Santa Barbara (#24). All eight Ivy League colleges made the top 25, but only one other public school-the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (#23) made that cut.
Despite some recent population decline, California is still by far the most populous state-around 39 million people call the Golden State home. Yet the state’s colleges still outperform when compared to publics in other big states. For example, Texas, home to 30 million people, counts just three public schools in the top 100-The University of Texas at Austin (#31); Texas A & M University, College Station (#50); and The University of Texas at Dallas (#97). New York, with a population of nearly 20 million, counts only two public schools -Binghamton University (#52) and Stony Brook University (#96)-in the top 100.

I graduated from UCSD, and those were some enjoyable years. Perfect weather, brilliant professors, I could walk to the beach about 15 minutes from my dorm, plentiful and healthy food on campus, and beautiful pools with gyms. Now, it's even better with a train that can take you straight to downtown San Diego or the border, and it hooks up to Amtrak to Los Angeles along the coast. Great diversity with people from all over the world. Also, excellent access to one of the best hospital systems in the country. It was a great blessing for this Chicano guy from Paramount, CA.
My dream schools are UC Berkeley and UCLA.
same! I'm applying to them this year!
California the best State in the Nation. 4th Economy in The world!
The best Public Colleges and University in US, Folks.
Santa Barbara, good news!
This should be good
The spending per student comparisons vs other states are not accurate. California is high cost of living so the overall spending per student of course is higher than other state.
Money and state funding. But I'll listen.
UCLA is 31% Asian. UCSD is 33% Asian. Berkeley is 40% Asian. California's Asian population is only 15%. California schools have access to a different set of demographics, and many students from these demographic groups are simply raised to have a much higher commitment to education and academics than the white majority and demonstrate higher output when it comes to academic performance and standardized college admissions tests. This is what boosts the reputation of public universities in California. Education is about the students and it is the students that do the hard work. Tax dollars can create opportunities in education but they do not buy the hard work that students actually have to do that ultimately boosts the reputation of the universities.
went to UCLA, over Rated. The premise of this entire video is false
