Why Pick a UC

[ucbalumnus]

@ucscuuw

Since I know you are interested in Cal, they let you switch majors in COE quite freely - even for EECS.

Change of major - Berkeley Engineering does not make that entirely obvious. However, engineering undeclared students are a special case, with free choice of single majors within the CoE: Undeclared - Berkeley Engineering

@tamagotchi

The other thing we noticed about Cal is that the unit requirements for each major seemed to be lower than the same majors at the other UCs we compared (and they are generous with AP credit),

Assuming you did translate semester system at UCB and UCM (120 semester units to graduate) and quarter system at other UCs (180 quarter units to graduate) based on 1 semester unit = 1.5 quarter unit, right?

UCB CoE AP credit policy is listed at Exams - Berkeley Engineering .
