<p>I’m very interested in applying to Berkeley; however, I would like to know whether undergraduates have good opportunities in doing research (for publication).</p>
<p>Secondly, the whole west coast idea seems to intimidate me. Are the living expenses, social life fees, and price for a dorm ridiculously expensive?</p>
<p>Better yet, if you have a livejournal account (or are willing to create one), definitely check out <a href=“http://ucberkeley.livejournal.com%5B/url%5D”>http://ucberkeley.livejournal.com</a> – it’s full of excellent information and is extremely active. Plus, you can post and get lots of feedback from current students. =)</p>
