Congrats! Go to Berkeley!

You're one of those people who should choose Berkeley over HLS when Berkeley is significantly cheaper. [But Berkeley isn't really cheaper in your case, so Harvard.

Go to Berkeley! Congrats!

Agree with the above, curious about your opinion on the following hypothetical scenario: If OP gets SLS off the WL with significant aid, at what price difference (if any) would you say go to S?

BTW Congrats OP!! Glad Cal came through for you!

Wow. For your goals, you can't get much better than a full ride at Berkeley. Congrats!!!!

DIdnt realize when this got updated and was BAFFLED at why everyone was initially saying Harvard.

Berkeley. Congrats!

Oh, there's definitely a point where the price difference gets small enough that it's worth it to go to S over B, even if your goals are limited to SF/SV. If SLS is, say, just $20K more than Berk, then go to SLS. If SLS is $100K more than Berk, then go to Berk. As for where the switchover point is between those two poles, I don't know. It depends on a bunch of factors and personal preferences.

I obviously change my vote from Harvard to Berkeley given the enormous price differential.

Congratulations on the full ride. That's very exciting.
