<p>UC Berkeley:
Pros - Greater diversity, California (far from parents and great weather), coast, great school, I just feel like I'd be happier there
Cons - Pretty damn far so travel to see friends will be pricey, such a huge student population, not so great facilities I've heard?</p>
<p>WashU:
Pros - Very nice student facilities, great school, shorter travel distance home
Cons - Not as much diversity, I would prefer to be on a coast rather than mid-country, my older brother attends the same school and I'd rather not attend his school (not that I don't like him or anything)</p>
<p>Any thoughts? Also, I know WashU is ranked higher on US News, but I think Berkeley is a better school. What do you guys think?</p>
