I'd pick Seattle, way over the other two. Then San Diego, then San Jose. San Jose is incredibly boring, in my opinion. There are SO many amazing places within like 2 hours of San Jose, I don't know why anyone would choose to live there if they had the choice. I understand jobs are part of it, and maybe cost (although San Jose is probably expensive even compared to it's surroundings), but seriously. San Jose is lame.
That said, I'm an American. I don't know where you're from, but if it's somewhere in Asia, there is a large percentage of Asians in San Jose- Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Pakistanis etc. so you might like it more that in that way.

All three of them are good choices. They all have a high cost of living. Seattle is definitely not boring. San Jose itself might be, but you're so close to San Francisco. San Diego is not boring, but not as exciting as Los Angeles which is only 2 hours away. All three are good for nature, but I think more so with Seattle and San Diego as they are both close to mountains. They are all beautiful in their own way. It all depends on what you're looking for, what type of weather do you like best? Do you want lots of rain but lush green scenery with a lot of fir trees, or you want lots of sunshine with dryness and palm trees, or a mix of both as you would find in the Bay Area.

I really want live in the US and San Diego and Seattle were two I was considering. Now I'm leaning heavily to Seattle, it just looks prettier, probably a more walkable city as well.

Seattle if you want to study. Muggy weather forces you to spend time on the library or computer lab.
Actually do a research on the universities corresponding your field of interest. All the cities are good choices.

San Diego. Rather have the sun than the rain. Zoo is awesome too. Also can actually go in the ocean at times.

I would prefer San Diego. But if you're coming here to study, I'd recommend going to the University of Washington in Seattle.
