<p>i know that berkeley ranks over UIUC for their business program, and i have gotten into both, but i do not know what to choose yet. berkeley makes you apply to haas after sophomore year and has about a 50% admit rate, while acceptance into the UIUC college is definite....is it worth the risk? i dont know what to do.....HELP!</p>
<p>In general, UCB Haas is known to be more prestigious than UIUC CoB.
It also depends on where you want to work after graduation.
UIUC graduates are mainly hired by companies in Chicago while UCB graduates are hired by companies in San Francisco and the Silicon Valley.
If your only concern is whether you will be able to get into Haas after your sophomore year, you really shouldn't worry, since you already made your way to Berkeley OOS!</p>
<p>thanks! that is my main concern, yes, as I glanced at the prerequisites needed just to apply to Haas and they are insane....i would prefer to go to Berkeley but i cannot imagine myself studying anything else other than business and am afraid of not getting into the program....</p>
