Berkeley vs. NYU

[belleoftheball]

Hi,

I've been accepted to both the Berkeley MCB and NYU Sackler programs, and was very enthusiastic about both when interviewing/visiting.

I know that Berkeley is an amazing program, but I am interested to hear what people's opinions are of Sackler. It seemed like a great program to me, but what is it's reputation.

Would I be insane to turn down Berkeley for NYU????

Unless you're deeply in love with NY and afraid of sunshine in California, you would be insane to do so. (or you're a vampire.)

I mean, yes, NYU is a great school, New York is very hip,

but Berkeley is BEYOND being great.

Whatever your choice would be, congratulations on your achievement.

I mean, I am deeply in love with NYC, and would love to say its a deal breaker for any school not there, but its not because I know its more worth it to go to a good school than to be in new york. (and I'm from california, so no, I am not afraid of sunshine and/or a vampire!)

However I just got accepted to Weill Cornell's Allied program. What are people's opinions on that, compared to the other two. Its seems like the best of both worlds: very reputable, but also in nyc!

Congrats on getting into those schools! I'm going to apply for the 2012 entering class. I am really interested in NYU and Weill Cornell. Can you give me more information about their admission screening and Interviews?
