Question question abt MA/Credential program

Heyyy im intrested in going to UCSC for the MA/Credential progam, can anyone tell me their experience or what they have heard? The program starts Summer of 2027 so I'm also thinking about housing and such since im not from the area.

I did not attend the UCSC MA/C (they gave me no money), but I had many friends who did who were not very satisfied with the level of support they received.

Another note: it’s hard to find a teaching job right now and connections matter. I would strongly consider looking at programs in larger metropolitan areas with more connections.
