<p>Let me start by saying I’ve got the chance to choose between these two schools (let’s also add Dartmouth)</p>
<p>But I’m facing a dilemma. At UC Berkeley, the school gives out generous AP credits. By the time of enrolment, I’ll probably have 14 AP credits plus some community college courses done. This means that if I do the degree at Berkeley, I graduate two years faster than if I do it at Amherst or Dartmouth. </p>
<p>Facing this situation, how should I choose between UCB and Amherst? </p>
<p>I’m looking to work at a MBB/IB after college if possible because I want to go to b-school.</p>
<p>How are you fixed financially? SpecificAlly, how much debt will you be carrying at the end of the day?</p>
<p>If for Amherst, I’ll be eligible for full financial aid, because my parents aren’t rich. I got in Middlebury previously (several years ago) but did not attend for personal reasons. (I went off to run my business)</p>
<p>I am an international student looking for aid - and the financial aid situation for Cal isn’t certain (their regents scholarship is only for top 1%). </p>
<p>My chief concern here is my age (I’m non -traditional now) - because I will matriculate when I’m 24/25 - and I want to attend business school before I’m 30</p>
