UCB offered me about $5k more than UCLA. That was after submitting a financial aid appeal to both. If they don’t offer you enough and you will make less money this year than you did last year, be sure to appeal.

As far as financial aid was concerned, the schools were ranked like this (from most aid to least aid):

UCSD
UCB
UCLA
UCSB
