UC Santa Barbara

At UC Santa Barbara, you’re steps away from the Pacific Ocean. And if you can tear your eyes from one amazing view, you’ll see another: the stunning Santa Ynez mountains behind you.

But there’s more to Santa Barbara than its spectacular setting. With over 200 majors and 500 student organizations to choose from, there’s limitless opportunities to challenge and express yourself.

You’ll be in good company too. Our impressive alumni includes six Nobel Laureates, tech pioneers, renowned scientists, Oscar winners and world-famous musicians.

It’s all down to Santa Barbara’s unique focus on collaboration—between students, faculty staff and disciplines—which encourages the academic excellence and creative freedom that opens doors for our students.
