I don’t understand.
Are you already accepted to all these schools?
Or are you talking about where you’d like to apply for next year?

Because if it’s the latter, it’s no time to be prematurely deciding which of these is “the better fit” if you don’t have acceptances in hand – all of these are very difficult to get into.

Do you have the stats to support a reasonable run at these schools?
Are you in-state for either Michigan or Berkeley?
Are you going to need a considerable amount of financial aid?

Do you have a particular part of the country that you anticipate wanting to be in after college?
