Whether you start at Berkeley or a CC, you’ll have to apply to the business major; in either case, you can also send in transfer applications to business majors at other schools.

However, if you start at Berkeley, you would retain the option of continuing in another major if you did not get into the business major either at Berkeley or some other school, while if you were a CC student who did not get in anywhere, you would need to figure something else to do for a year to try to apply again.

Other factors:

Cost may be different.

Some CCs may be rather difficult to get classes in, since CCs are open admission.
