Opportunity costs? - UCLA over UCB

Most engineers don’t go to grad school (or so I’m told by my several engineering-oriented friends). Because of that, I’d have to give the edge to Berkeley, though obviously you’d get a great education at both schools. I just think there’s a bit of a gap in the level of education between the top EE schools (Berkeley, MIT, etc.), and the next tier (UCLA, etc).

But I also feel like the campus fit should be the biggest factor, since whatever gap does exist is really very small.

Good luck!
