Hi all,

I have just been admitted to the Berkeley's professional track. I have to submit my deposit etc by December 4th.

I would take Berkeley's traditional track over any other school, but I would probably take UCLA's Public Interest program over Berkeley's professional track. Unfortunately the professional track doesn't offer many courses that I am interested in.

I just wanted to know what the repercussions would be for me to accept the position at Berkeley and then later change my mind? I imagine that I would lose the deposit, but would there be any other consequences? Considering UCLA is a UC school, do they communicate with each other?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

You would simply lose the deposit. No need to fear further retaliatory measures

Thank you for your response!

I shall accept the place and see what comes in the next few months.
