I don’t want to regret passing up opportunities I might get at berkeley.



That much extra debt may eventually be more constraining on your future opportunities than the difference between Berkeley and Washington. Imagine, as a new medical school graduate, being forced to chase the highest paying medical specialty because the lower paying medical specialty that you really want to do would not let you pay off the higher debt in a reasonable amount of time.
