I finished my first degree in law last year and I'm from France : )
I have yet to make up my mind because my university had a private agreement with Boston University so I already said yes to BU and i paid the deposit..

Solsol,
Just leave the deposit and go to Cal with us!!
You're admitted to berkeley! If u go to Boston, it must be a very important agreement I guess!

I'm pretty sure of that...

And even more: some of the admissions messages are being released at the very same time: me and a friend of mine received our messages at 18:54 sharp (Sao Paulo time)!!!

I'm also in. I've also been admitted to USC and while Berkeley has a better reputation, I'm really worried about the budget cuts and how they will affect Berkeley. I don't want to pay loads of money to go to a school with closed libraries, broken down computers and cuts in classes (leading to large class sizes). USC has the benefit of being privately funded and doesn't appear to be affected by state budget cuts. Does anyone have any constructive thoughts on which one to choose in light of the above mentioned?

Just by browsing the Internet, one can conclude that classes have been cut, opening hours of libraries shortened, personnel cut. I don't know how the budget cuts of the past 2-3 years has impacted general environment/resources at campus. I've been studying at underfunded universities all my life and am looking forward to a well funded American university. Perhaps someone has some better info on the status at Boalt hall.
