<p>I like both places… but they’re so different… this is my dilemma</p>

<p>First… I want to do business… plan on getting an MBA… I am already in Stern… but not Haas which I have heard is really hard to get into too…</p>

<p>Second… dorms at NYU are better with their own bathrooms</p>

<p>Third… NYU is in the middle of the city… Berkeley is outside of the city but has a campus…</p>

<p>Fourth… its colder in NY then in SF… </p>

<p>hmm… what else… </p>

<p>Fifth… UC Berkeley is more prestigious then NYU???</p>

<p>Sixth… I live in Los Angeles… so Berkeley would be definitely closer… New York would be a huge leap…</p>

<p>Seventh… after financial aid at NYU they are around the same price per year…</p>

<p>At this point… I’m so stuck… give me your opinions and two cents… o and I’m going to CAL DAY tomorrow so that might help</p>

<p>Berkeley Haas has got the edge here, though not be a mile.
Accoring to USNWR, Haas is more prestigious than Stern. According to Businessweek’s ranking of undergrad business, Haas is superior to Stern, in general, and is ranked number 3 in the nation as the best feeder school to top MBA programs. Stern did not even make in the top 10 in that area. But Stern is an excellent business school and a degree from there is highly respected in WS, NYC.
Choose anywhere you like best. But personally, I would go for Haas.</p>

<p>it really depends on what area of business you wanna do</p>

<p>if you want to go into finance and investment banking, stern is the clear choice with its many opportunities for internships on Wall Street</p>

<p>Haas is overall a very good business school and a Haas degree will look a lot better than a Stern degree in any other area of business</p>

<p>so bascially you need to decide where you plan to work after you graduate. if you want to go east, go to NYU, but if you wanna work in the west coast, go to Cal</p>

<p>personally, i would take the chance and go to Cal</p>
