I think Stanford is a bit of a reach for my daughter. Cal Tech is as well. So, we could see Santa Clara and maybe UC-Davis in addition to Berkeley?

Stanford is the ultimate reach for everyone, but if your kid has a good story to tell, why not? It’s a beautiful campus, worth a visit. And then you can also do the fashionable Silicon Valley excursion of visiting the headquarters/visitor centers of Apple, Google and Facebook.

So yes, Stanford, Santa Clara, UC-Berkeley and UC-Davis would be a good NorCal campus visit itenerary. Do note that if you come in the summer, UCD is inland and will most likely be hotter than Hades.
