What I wish I knew before College | a UCSB Grad's Advice

They don't lie when they say your college years are some of the most pivotal times in your life. As I wrap up my four years here at UCSB, I wanted to share some of the most important lessons I've learned, things they never taught me in class. If I had adopted these values sooner, I would

[@juliagonzalez8324]

Thank you so much for this, it really secured my decision to go to UCSB. I love your videos and you're a great dancer!!

[@KaiVertigoh]

Thank you so much!! I am happy I could help with such a large decision of yours, best of luck in probably the most exciting upcoming chapter in your life!

I'm about to go to university in China and i came across your channel i was kinda nervous but watching your videos living there were amazing

[@JonnyV95]

Well said. Thanks for sharing!

[@paulclothinglots9266]

Sending your video to my middle school kids. Thank you

[@KaiVertigoh]

Please do! I hope it helps :)

that's some wholesome dance at the end!

Thank you for these vids!!

[@KaiVertigoh]

Thank you for watching and for this sweet comment :)

[@elaniemendes1929]

I agree with the not knowing as much as you think. The more you know, the more you realize that you don't know...if that makes sense.

[@KaiVertigoh]

100% makes sense. An open mind grows the most!! Cheers Elanie :)

Dude, great video & Congrays on graduating man. With that being said, i am a transfer student going to be attending UCSB this fall to continue my college career and wanted to suggest a video of the same sorts - tips and tricks / a guideline - but for the city and university. What to know about SB, IV, the campus. I mean i took the tour and got information, but as someone graduating, what should i know, what are particular routes to having a better and smooth time at UCSB as opposed to all colleges.

[@KaiVertigoh]

Thank you Chris, and congratulations to you man!! I do really like your idea, I have one more video during my time here in mind, and I think I will try to incorporate your suggestion into it. Were there any specific questions ringing in your head regarding UCSB that you'd like me to address?

[@chrissilver5448]

@@KaiVertigoh Well the steps that you had in the video were already very helpful so thank you. but a good example would be that bike tunnel shown in the beginning. I had no idea that was there. Maybe a UCSB specific "How to get through your time at UCSB" video. what do you wish you could tell undergrad you about the UCSB. No matter what, thanks for the response.

Thank you so much man! This got me hyped and helped me so much! I’m excited! I just got accepted as a transfer for psychological brain and science 🙌🏼🙏🏻 ps I love the note to self to mediation , that’s a huge key 🧠

[@KaiVertigoh]

Ahh fantastic! Best of luck! You've got a lifetime of golden memories in store for you :)

[@kennasreign]

I just got into this with that major! How was it?

[@yoloswagali2646]

@@kennasreign it’s a lot of work but great professors, are you a freshmen or are you getting into the major as a transfer?

[@kennasreign]

@@yoloswagali2646 im going in as a freshman. I'm still deciding between ucsd and ucsb and I like ucsb's campus and social life more but ucsd seems great for academics, research, and internships. I got in as cognitive and behavioral neuroscience major and I feel like that's more aligned with what I want to do but there's pros and cons to both schools so its hard to choose

[@mcbenphynn5167]

Man I like your videos

[@KaiVertigoh]

Thank you man! And thank you for watching!

[@venturabay]

As a transfer student didn't realize how one could get A's...Never take a class that might break your streak of A's...stay in your comfort zone and it all comes easy...GLTA...believe me getting A's more fun then not getting A's.

Wait til you get married. Only thing that drags is a job you hate or 9-5 job.
