I'm torn between Berkeley and Fordham

<p>Well I'll just list this off lol, and if anyone went to senior weekend I'll give myself away but anyway.<br>
The schools are I think as Polar opposites as can be and I'm quite fine with that, I'm sure I'll be able to adapt lol. I'm outgoing and social so I don't think making friends will be a problem.</p>

<p>I'll give a quick summary on what's going to go down.
Fordham:
Pros
-My mind says it's a sensible choice.
-It's in New York which for a California native is an entirely new experience.
-A small intimate environment, since it's a private school.
-Different School of thought than Liberal California.
-I'll be a someone in this college, instead of being in a sea of faces and I'm sure the professors will know my name.<br>
-I'm most likely going to be able to make their soccer team they aren't a national powerhouse.
-It's basically a fullride.</p>

<p>Cons-
-It's in a new york and I love being able to play soccer year round.
-It's a catholic school.
-It's not as prestigious as cal
-Getting into an ivy league for grad school might be a bit harder.
-Cold as bonkers over there. It's also in the Bronyx, one of the many concrete jungles but at least the botanical gardens are around.</p>

<p>UC Berkeley
Pros
-It's hella tight, lol I mean it's cal.
-It's still plenty far away at 8 hours away from my home.
-It's the #1 school in the nation for my intended major.
-It's really prestigious and was my dream school as a child.
-I graduate out of there with above average grades and I'm assured a place into an ivy league, or even Cal's own law school.
-The atmosphere at berkeley suits me down the to letter, people are open minded and it's seems like the smaller classrooms leave room for debate.
-I'll be with a lot more of my kind. I'd love the challenge of graduating top of the class.
-It's in cali, so I can still play soccer year round, which is beautiful.
-I can drastically cut the cost by moving to an apartment.<br>
-My heart says Berkeley.
-The fortune teller told me I was going to Berkeley and so did the magic 8 ball, when asked about fordham the ball said no.</p>

<p>Cons
-I'll be paying 9$ not counting the loans I'd have to pay back.
-Large classrooms, so I'd be lost in a sea of faces.
-National powerhouse so it'd be harder to make the team, but it'd be that much more satisfying.
-I've lived in california all my life.
-.... wow I don't have many cons.<br>
So hmm yeah opinions? lol</p>

<p>I have the same problem choosing between Cal and USC.
Cal put a little bit more loan on my financial package.
So stressfull… I don’t know which one to choose!!</p>

<p>Do you go to Saints in San Diego?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I think you have a winner.</p>
