<p>I'm deciding between NYU and Berkeley. I like Berkeley's program, but I like NYU's location. If i wanted to get a job in NYC, would it be better to go to NYU, or does the Berkeley name help just as much?</p>
<p>Both will heal the sick; neither will raise the dead.</p>
<p>It really depends on your major.</p>
<p>If finances are not a concern, pick NYU. Far more opportunities. It’ll allow you to build your resume IN New York.</p>
<p>As a lifelong NY’er, I would choose Berkeley. Everyone here knows what it is and I think it 's more prestigious than NYU. My opinion would change if you were considering Tisch, because the NY contacts can’t be emulated or made up.</p>
<p>engineering? go to berkeley. bschool? Haas is just as good as stern but to be honest more opportunities in NY</p>
