The UCSD acceptance rate is low—UCSD is a competitive school for both in-state and out-of-state students. Because of the UCSD GPA requirements and the average GPA of admitted students, you must have a stellar academic record. You must also show yourself to be a dynamic, thoughtful individual.Most schools use a weighted GPA out of 4.0, though some report an unweighted GPA. With a GPA of 3.9, UCSD requires you to be at the top of your class.

The San Diego Design Institute offers a special, CIDA accredited BFA in interior design. Students appreciate small classes, hands-on studios and professional focus.

If the institute has strong student engagement and you value interaction, then on-campus is better for you. If not, then off-ca
