<p>Yeah, I know. One of those threads. Haha. But I'm stuck in a dilemma: I was pretty set on Berkeley until USC contacted me recently telling me I got the International Academic Scholarship which covers half-tuition. I'm in Leventhal for USC (and might double major in business at Marshall) and Pre-Haas for Berkeley, although if I don't get in I will probably do econ/applied math double major.</p>
<p>I'm an international student so that actually makes USC cheaper than Berkeley, but I might be planning to work abroad after uni so my main concern is that,
a) US system of accounting really only applies to US, so I might have trouble finding a job (hence the double major... just in case.)
b) The USC name is definitely not as powerful as Berkeley overseas - how much is it going to affect me?</p>
<p>Nevertheless, Leventhal is still a top notch program, so I guess my primary question is: Is it worth paying like, 60-80k more for Haas in your opinion? Especially with the budget cuts and everything going on.</p>
<p>I'm not taking into account factors like school environment because I'm neutral towards both North Cal and SoCal - it's going to be exciting no matter where I go.</p>
<p>I'm going to be asking this in the USC thread as well, so hopefully the biases balance each other out. Haha! Thanks everyone.</p>
