<p>I'm looking for help I have been accepted to both Berkeley and Columbia as a transfer student. I'm having trouble choosing, I'm a history major and both seem amazing schools for history. Cost is a factor and I am a California native. Any ideas on which would be better for pursuing a history degree ?</p>
<p>If cost is a factor, go to the cheaper school. I doubt that one is astronomically superior to the other in terms of history programs. You usually need a graduate degree in history anyways, so save your money for that.</p>
<p>Berkeley. I am guessing you got into Columbia GS which is no bueno.</p>
<p>Thanks for the quick reply nvilla I appreciate it. It seems hard to compare the two they seem very similar in terms of qualifications.</p>
<p>Cupertino why do you feel that way about gs?</p>
<p>Also post this on the Search & Selection forum which gets more traffic.</p>
