<p>I can't decide :(</p>
<p>Depending on where you live, it could be either. If you want to be closer to home and live in the west side, then Berkeley would be a better choice even if you don’t qualify for instate tuition since after a year in dorm you should be a resident by then. If money is no concern, then Stern all the way.</p>
<p>dude i feel ya.
although im doing buisness, my friend is and he ended up picking stern cus he got money to pay for it.
besides nyu its by far a much more “hip” atmosphere than ghetoo berekely although i like ucb campus for its quirks!!</p>
<p>nyu doesnt have ppl in the trees</p>
<p>I’ve got the same problem. However Berkeley is 30k more than NYU, so I’d have to look at their financial aid package when it comes out and then decide</p>
<p>If you want to do Finance, Stern. If anything else, Berkeley.</p>
<p>I want to do finance!!! yes i know stern’s finance is way ahead
I am in west coast canada, so california is closer , and I can drive my car there~ …
i’ve never visited new york, I heard NYU has no campus?
I don’t really have any financial restrictions, so new york??? ohhhhhh headache…</p>
<p>Well, living in New York City is an excellent experience</p>
<p>Then the choice is NYU hands down. You still have to do 2 years at Berkeley before you get into Haas, so there is a small (but still a) possibility of not getting into Haas. Visit both, take the tours, then decide.</p>
<p>It’s NOT “a small (but still a) possibility of not getting into Haas”.  It’s like 50% of chance NOT getting into Hass even you’re in Berkeley already.

<p>REALLY??? so after I become a residence my tuition will be much cheaper right?? ooo thats awesome</p>
<p>Unless you’re parents are moving with you to CA, you will not become a resident for tuition purposes.</p>
<p>You are aware that you can’t get into UC Berkeley’s business school (Haas) until your junior year, aren’t you? And that it requires about a 3.42 GPA or better while at UC Berkeley in order to get accepted. This means that about half or more of those attending the school will not qualify.</p>
<p>At NYU, however, once you are accepted to Stern (as a freshman) you are already in the business school.</p>
<p>Personally, I like living here in northern California, not too far from Berkeley, rather than in the cold of New York City;–but NYU does have the better finance program, and the rules to get into the business program are far more attractive.</p>
<p>Good luck with your choice.</p>
<p>I had to pick between the two as well, and I chose NYU Stern.  And I’m not doing Finance.
I absolutely love it here.</p>
