My S22 has the same issue right now. Admitted UCB EECS and UCLA CS with a Regents. Today we found out the Regents would drop costs by 8K/yr. So his current choice of UCB with loans plus work-study goes up against UCLA with 32K less debt (plus better access to classes and housing). Since Cal CS grads seem to have higher starting salaries on average, it seems that a few years after graduation there is probably no significant difference. What other things should we consider?
