Just shipped something that's going to save future ๐จ๐๐ฆ๐ students hours of research. Choosing a residential college at ๐จ๐๐ฆ๐ used to mean scrolling through 8 different websites, reading conflicting Reddit threads, and still not knowing which one fits you. Not anymore. Meet ๐ฆ๐น๐๐ด๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฐ๐ต for UCSD, a personalized quiz that matches you with your best-fit residential college in 5 minutes. Now when you're deciding on housing, you instantly get: โ Personalized top 5 college matches โ Side-by-side comparisons of individual residential colleges(Revelle v.s. Marshall) โ Real student notes (actual Reddit quotes, no fluff) โ Complete resources page (apps, transit hacks, freshman advice) What's next: - More campuses (you tell us which one) - Enhanced matching algorithm based on user feedback Huge shoutout to my cofounders Lawrence Kuria and Sasha Efimchik. This project wouldn't be where it is without them. Link to try it: https://www.slugmatch.com/ If you have any suggestions, questions, or bugs you've run into, don't hesitate to leave me a message on LinkedIn. #UCSD #SanDiego #CollegeDecision #CollegeLife #StudentLife
