<p>the other consideration is financial aid (assuming you need it). apply to a UC campus, and when they get your FAFSA, they very kindly hand you a list of banks that offer loans. Period.

There are many private institutions that are equally well-regarded which will atleast give you some assistance financially. If you really want to go to Cal, maybe attend a JC here and get residency. Some of the JC’s have guaranteed UC admission tracks (not necessarily to UCB, however).</p>
