<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>I'm currently finalizing my list of college in which I'm going to apply to.</p>
<p>Right now, I'm not sure whether I should pick UCLA or UC Berkeley..and I only want to decide on one. </p>
<p>I'm interested in pursuing a career in architecture, and I know that both schools are among the top colleges for architecture in the country.</p>
<p>So I need a little help.</p>
<p>Apply to both of them.</p>

<p>Was going to say the same exact thing, its the same app, i think you should apply to both.</p>
<p>Absolutely apply to both. Also, if you are in-state for California, are you looking at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo?</p>
<p>i don’t know what berkeley’s architecture program is like.
but from what i know of ucla has always been the stronger one in the art and architecture department which should mean its more competitive. the architecture major at ucla has their separate application in addition to the uc application.
its not one of the “study of architecture” which is completely different from a major in architecture.</p>
<p>berkeley for architecture should be easier to get into than ucla. i feel from just assuming berkeley is more like “the study of” instead of the practice of</p>
<p>Both plus Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.</p>
